  • Page 15: Basic Calibration Procedure

    Basic Calibration Procedure Gearbox Setting Lever To set the seed rate at the gearbox, slacken the star knob (1) by turning counter-clockwise and push from below into the position indicated in the Sowing Chart. Retighten the star knob firmly (Fig Important The settings shown in the Sowing Charts (kg/ha) can only serve as reference values.
  • Page 16: Seed Calibration

    Basic Calibration Procedure (Continued) Seed Calibration The calibration test should be done to confirm the required seed rate and is done with the drill stationary and level. Seed Calibration Procedures Remove the calibration tray from the storage brackets on the seedbox. Place the calibration tray (1) on the support members below the seeders (Fig 5).
  • Page 17 Basic Calibration Procedure (Continued) Seed Calibration Procedures (Continued) Hand Crank Turns for Seed Rate Calibration The tables represented below are for arable conditions (worked ground) and are calculated to indicate an average situation. If there is any doubt as to the accuracy of these figures for the conditions, it is advisable to run at least 1 of the 2 checks on the calibration figures listed.
  • Page 18: Recalculating The Constant

    Basic Calibration Procedure (Continued) Recalculating the Constant It is especially important in arable situations to check the rolling circumference of the tyre when in the cultivated area to be sown, and if necessary, to recalculate the constant and hence the number of crank turns.
  • Page 19: Calibration Deviations

    Basic Calibration Procedure (Continued) Calibration Deviations Deviations Between the Calibration Test and the Actual Seed Rate The most frequent cause for changes between the calibration test and the seed rate lies in the flowing properties of seed during sowing. These changes in properties generally result from reactions of the dressing agents to temperature, humidity or abrasion.
  • Page 20: Sowing Of Fine Seeds

    Hints for Sowing with Variable Speed Gearbox The gearbox allows for stepless changes in the speed of the metering shaft and thus the seed rates. Due to the variations in seed type and application rates there are two speed ranges available. By changing from High Speed to Low Speed the range of settings and control is dramatically increased.
  • Page 21: Sowing Small Seeds

    Small Seeds Calibration with Disconnected Agitator Shaft The fine seed metering wheel used in Duncan Drills is especially well suited for sowing small seeds such as rape. Due to the intensive action caused by the agitator the seeds can adhere to each other, or be damaged, causing irregular sowing/germination.
  • Page 22: Hectaremeter Settings

    Hectaremeter Settings Setup Refer to the installation and operation instructions supplied with your hectaremeter kit (1) for information on installation, calibration, operation and servicing (Fig 16). Table 6 gives the effective working widths for the various machines depending on the machine size and the row spacing. The calibration procedure described in the hectaremeter handbook involves accurately measuring the circumference of the tyre and entering and storing this value in the meter.
