COP and COP SUPREMA planters are especially designed
to make the No-Till or Conventional planting of Corn, Soybean,
Bean, Rice, Peanut, Delinted Cotton, Sorghum, etc...
The permanent row units floating control guarantees the
accompaniment of the soil topography variations.
COP makes the precision planting with horizontal perforated
plates for several crops.
COP SUPREMA uses the vacuum seed metering, with
exclusive sealing system that assures larger useful life and a
continuous and uniform job.
The fertilizer distribution is done with auger type metering,
guaranteeing an uniform distribution in all the row units.
The calibration for different rates of fertilizer and seed is easily
obtained by the sprocket combination mechanism, without using
any tools.
The seed depth control is done through the oscillating rubber
wheels, that accompany the ground and favor the plants
emergence for equal.
This Manual contains the necessary information for the best
planter performance. The operator must read with attention the
whole manual before operating and be aware of the safety
recommendations.
To obtain any information, or in the eventuality of technical
problems, consult the dealer, as well as Marchesan's customer
service, that will guarantee the planters full operation.
