Legal & Safety Troubleshooting
This manual contains technical information regarding Bayer SeedGrowth™ Equipment. Please read and understand these instructions
completely before proceeding to install and operate the equipment. Bayer reserves the right to change specifications, models,
components, or materials at any time without notice. For additional equipment information contact us at 1.800.634.6738. Please have
this manual available when contacting Bayer.
Always use caution and common sense when working with any chemical. Read the product label and SDS carefully and follow their
instructions exactly as described.
Optimal operating conditions for this piece of equipment requires an ambient temperature 32° F to +104° F (0° C to +40° C), relative
humidity less than 90% (minimum condensation). Make necessary provisions to protect this piece of equipment against excessive dust,
particles containing iron, moisture and against corrosive and explosive gases.
Our technical information is based on extensive testing and is, to the best of our current knowledge, true and accurate but given without
warranty as the conditions of use and storage are beyond our control. Variables, such as humidity, temperature, change in seed size
or variety and viscosity of chemical products can all affect the accuracy of the chemical application and seed coverage. To ensure the
desired application rate and optimum seed coverage, check the calibration periodically throughout the day, and make adjustments as
needed.
Any person who is involved in the installation or periodic maintenance of this equipment should be suitably skilled or instructed and
supervised using a safe system of work. Isolate the treater before removing guards for maintenance.

Step 2: Connect the High and Low level Sensor Cables to the bottom of the Conveyor Control.
Ensure AHIGH SENSOR (located on top of the inlet) is connected to the sensor connection on the bottom of the control
box marked: ABIN HIGH SENSOR.
Connect BLOW SENSOR (located on the side of the hopper) is connected to the sensor connection on the bottom of
the control box marked: BBIN LOW SENSOR.

Step 1: Connect the High Level Sensor Assembly to the Hopper top (pre-drilled holes). Use a crescent wrench to remove the plastic plug on the side of the Hopper. Thread in the Low Level
Sensor. Carefully connect the High and Low Level Sensor Cables to the end of each Sensor.

OPERATION
12
Step 1: The Conveyor Control uses high level and low level
sensors (located on the hopper above the inlet) to initiate the
inlet feed conveyor. Each sensor is equipped with a light,
that when turned on indicates the sensor is working but
the bin is empty. The light will turn off once the sensor sees
material in the bin and activates the control.
Step 2: If the red Emergency Stop (E-STOP) button is
pushed (depressed), both conveyors will automatically stop
running. To activate the conveyors, turn the E-STOP button
clockwise and pull slightly. Both conveyors will resume
running.

Infeed Conveyor
Both the inlet (INFEED) and the outlet (OUTFEED) conveyors are powered by switches on the control box. The Active position will be indicated by the switch turning green.
INFEED CONVEYOR
The INFEED conveyor can be run in two modes: MANUAL and AUTO.
MANUAL MODE
The conveyor will run continuously until the switch is manually turned to the OFF position. It does not utilize the high level or low level sensors to operate.
AUTO MODE
The conveyor will start running if the low level sensor does not detect seed in the hopper and until the seed “head” reaches the high level sensor, then will shut off automatically.
It will re-start once the low level sensor no longer detects seed present.
Outfeed Conveyor
The OUTFEED conveyor runs when the switch is manually turned to the ON position and stopped when manually turned to the OFF position.
There is no automatic ON/OFF operation of the OUTFEED conveyor.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Unable to Run Conveyors Manually: Power is connect-
ed, conveyor is switched to “On or Manual”, but switch
doesn’t light-up & conveyor doesn’t run.
Verify E-Stop Button is not activated (reset E-Stop button by turning button clockwise & pulling slightly).
Reference: E-Stop Button Positions:
• Pulled Out: Normal Run Position
• Pushed In: E-stop activated: Drops all power flow
Unable to Run Conveyors Manually: Power is connected,
conveyor is switched to “On or Manual”, switch lights-
up, but conveyor doesn’t run.
Verify safety-reset switches on Motor Starters (MMP1 & MMP2), inside control, are not tripped.
Reference Safety-reset switch positions:
• Vertical: Run Position
• Diagonal: Tripped Position (Amperage Limit Reached)
• Horizontal: Off Position
Excessive tripping of Safety-Reset switch on Motor start-
ers: Safety-Reset Switch on Motor Starters (MMP1 or
MMP2), trip repeatedly.
Verify conveyor motor size does not exceed maximum rated HP for conveyor control.
Infeed Conveyor starts/stops excessively: Hopper fills
normally to high-sensor and stops, but infeed convey-
or restarts immediately when seed falls off high-sensor
rather than waiting until it falls off low-sensor.
Verify low & high sensor cables are not reversed.
Sensor lights don’t come on: Sensor lights don’t come
on even though there is seed in front of them.
Verify E-Stop button is not activated
Reference: To Reset E-Stop button turn clockwise & pull slightly
Reference: E-Stop Button Positions:
• Pulled Out: Normal Run Position
• Pushed In: E-stop activated: Drops all power flow
Reference: Sensor Lights:
• Light On: Seed present in front of sensor
• Light Off: Seed not present or no power to sensor
Symptom Potential Fixes
15
Hopper Overfills: Infeed conveyor runs, hopper fills, but
conveyor doesn’t stop before hopper overflows.
1) Verify infeed conveyor switch is in “Auto” position, not “Manual”.
2) Verify seed pile in hopper fills evenly, such that the seed hits the high-sensor before overflowing the other side of
the hopper.y
Symptom Potential Fixes
Low Sensor Light Off: Conveyor switches are in off
position, seed in hopper, high-sensor light is on, but low
sensor light is off.
This is Normal Operation: Low-sensor light will only come on when infeed conveyor switch is in “Auto” position and
seed is present.
