  • Page 64: Calibrating The Seed Rate

    Structure and function 5.7.3 Calibrating the seed rate When calibrating the seed rate, the later field pass is simulated. The metering roller speed required to spread the desired seed rate [kg/ha] is determined. The metering roller speed is calculated from the simulated area (e.g. 1/40 ha) and the weight [kg] of the collected metered material.

  • Page 65: Automatic Seed Rate Increase

    Structure and function The calibration is started by actuation  of the control terminal in the tractor cab or  of the TwinTerminal (Fig. 42) or  of the mobile device with the mySeeder app. The buttons of the TwinTerminal and the mobile device must be pressed and held during calibra- tion.

  • Page 68: Distributor Head

    Structure and function Distributor head In the distributor head, the seed is distributed uniformly over all coulters. For this purpose, the distributor head has indi- vidual segments. The metered material is evenly distributed over all of the segments in the distrib- utor head, and is carried to the coulters through the connected seed line tubes.

  • Page 69: Seed Tube Monitoring

    Structure and function 5.9.1 Seed tube monitoring The seed tube hoses represent the connection between the distributor head and the coulters. Each seed tube hose can be equipped with a sensor (Fig. 52/1) that detects the seed flow. A warning message is issued when the seed flow in a monitored seed line hose is interrupted or large deviations occur in the flow rate between the monitored seed line hoses.

    Structure and function 5.12 Coulter pressure, coulter lift and harrow lift  All coulter types Adaptation of the coulter pressure to the soil is required to achieve uniform seed placement depth on different soils. The coulter pressure is adjusted centrally by means of a crank handle or hydraulically. The hydraulically actuated coulter pressure adjustment allows the coulter pressure to be adapted to the soil during operation.

  • Page 74: Coulter Pressure - Hydraulic Adjustment

    Structure and function 5.12.2 Coulter pressure - Hydraulic adjustment With the hydraulic coulter pressure adjustment, the coulter pressure is preset. Two pins (Fig. 63/1) serve as stop for the hy- draulic cylinder. As a result, the coulter pressure can be adapted to the soil during operation, e.g. when changing to heavy soil and vice versa.
