Cleaning out this seed box

[Howboutthemdawgs]

I got this seeder the other day. It has a bunch of crap in the seed boxes. Can I hose those out? Some of the stuff seems caked in there so I’m not sure how a shop vac will do

Has that had fertilizer in it?

 

[Howboutthemdawgs]

No it’s just been sitting for a while

I have hosed out my Woods Seeder - looks very similar. Make sure it is a good sunny warm day and it will dry pretty quick. Afterwards, I spray wd 40 on the seed meters. Open them all the way and spray and close all the way and spray. Do not used pressure washer

Great thanks. That’s exactly what I will do.

I use a shopvac on our Genesis drill all the time.

I would guess a large air compressor with a "needle" tip gun would blow/blast most of that free as well.

Good idea.

Absolutely, vac and blow out the seed boxes. Sadly, no matter my end of planting clean up, something gets in there in there I need to clean out.
