Modifying the seed drill in line with the seed being used

To ensure good and even sowing, appropriate settings for the following devices
must be made prior to calibration test sampling:
 Agitator shaft
 Shutter
 Seed wheels
 Sowing shaft transmission ratio
 Stirring rods for sowing grass seeds (to be mounted prior to filling)
 Bottom gate (to be adjusted prior to filling)
IMPORTANT!
If you wish to sow small peas at a rate of up to 150 kg/ha, we recommend that you
use special Mono Plus seed wheels.
When you open the lid of the seed box (4),
4
the ball float (5) of the fill level indicator (6)
is also raised. It then drops onto the in-
serted seed. Make sure that the seed is
distributed evenly in the seed box.
CAUTION! Do not reach into the seed
box when the agitator shaft is
moving!
