1. Seed hopper. 2. Agitator, driven by the gearbox 8. 3. Bent Seed Guide Plate. This plate closes the opening under the Seed Distribution Sprocket 15. The position, or better distance B is controlled by handle 18. For all grass seeds this handle 18 should be set at position 1 ( closest distance). Only when coarser seeds ( like beans) are used, the opening should be wider.
