[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 7473497, member: 71668"] They work very well Yes, product blows out the top if the seed boot is blocked pretty much standard equipment on any Australian built airseeder planters Although, ideally you should still keep fan speed / air pressure as low as will work without blockages. Excessive speed / pressure causes premature wear of hoses ( especially on any bends ) & can also damage certain seed types. As well as using more fuel ( excess hydraulic flow ), making more noise, & heating hydraulic oil unnecessarily the old rule of thumb is, if you take the cap off a distributor head, the product should rise about a metre above that, at working rates & pressure. Generally about 5 - 7 Kpa ( so actually very low pressure ) is what I work on with wide planters [/QUOTE]
