- Page 2 Summary The SUMO Deep Tillage Seeder (DTS) drill is based on a concept known as ‘strip till drilling’, a method of only loosening and preparing a band of soil where the seed is to be placed and leaving the soil in- between rows undisturbed, and therefore not working ground unnecessarily.

Page 26: Speed Simulation
4.9 Speed simulation In the unlikely event that the radar speed sensor stops working, you can continue drilling by simulating a forward speed signal. Remember though that your actual forward speed should match the simulated speed as close as possible, otherwise the drilling rate will not be correct. Drive faster than the simulated speed and you will under-apply, and vice-versa. -
