  • Page 3 Only use genuine LEMKEN spare-parts. Spurious parts negatively influence the function of the implement, show a shorter lifetime and increase in nearly all cases the maintenance effort. We trust that you will understand that LEMKEN is unable to guarantee poor op- eration and damage caused by using spurious parts!
  • Page 4 Therefore use this instruction book with the ’General Health- and Safety precau- tions’! • The LEMKEN-implements have been designed purely for the agricultural use! Any use beyond the one stipulated above is no longer considered as defined use! •...

  • Page 37: Switching On The Seed Wheels

    8.13.1 Switching on the seed wheels A seed wheel is switched on by screwing in the stop screw (2). When screwing in the stop screw, care must be taken to ensure that it is always screwed exactly into the groove (5) of the feeder shaft (4), and therefore always within the seed wheel circumference.
  • Page 38: Switching Off The Seed Wheels

    8.13.2 Switching off the seed wheels The seed wheels (1) are switched off by undoing the stop screw (2), and by doing so far enough until it makes contact with the stop plate (6). The stop screw must not be unscrewed too far out of the tooth root (7), as it may then drop out.

  • Page 60: Distributor

    Adjustments 10.13 Distributor The distributors (1) are provided with dis- tributor heads (2) with thread, which en- able a simple check of the distributor. If required, some exits of the distributor can be closed by means of plugs. Therefore the distributor heads (2) must be removed and the plugs put in those exits which should be closed.
  • Page 61: S-Harrow

    Adjustments 10.15.1 S-harrow The S-harrow will be screwed to the carrier (1) respectively the coulter bar. The harrow position will be adjusted by means of the pins (2) and (3). The harrow tines (4) should be set a little bit deeper at the rear than in front during work.
  • Page 62: Hydraulic Lift

    Adjustments IMPORTANT! It must always be ensured that the pulse wheel (9) never touches the harrow during work Before each transport, the S-harrows must be folded-in and se- cured, in order to prevent injury. Worn harrow tines, which show sharp points pointing rearwards, only, must be covered by a trans- port safety device.
  • Page 63: Pre-Emergence Marker - Hydraulic, Double Acting

    Adjustments 10.16.2 Pre-emergence marker – hydraulic, double acting The carriers (1) of the hollow discs (2) will be fitted to the wheel stalk of the depth control wheels. The hollow discs will be lowered by means of the hydraulic rams (3), when a tramline should be made.

    Adjustments 10.16.3 Pre-emergence marker – hydraulic, single acting The hollow discs (1) can exactly be ad- justed to the track measurement of the fol- lowing tractor. Therefore the brackets of the units will be moved to the desired track measurement. Also after loosening the clamp screw (2), the hollow discs can be adjusted to the de- sired track measurement.
  • Page 65: Depth Of The Marking Groove

    Adjustments 10.16.4 Depth of the marking groove By means of turning the spring (4) the depth of the marking groove can be pre- adjusted. Turning the spring clockwise => deeper marking grooves Turning the spring anti-clockwise => shal- lower marking groove By means of the bolt (5) the brake discs (6) will be pressed against the spring, so that the position of the spring cannot change unintentionally, but still can be ad- justed manually.
