Operating sequence fertiliser spreader ZA-M
27
AMATRON II-A DB 599 09.01
I
Always newly determine the calibra-
tion factor
• if the spread rate changes by more
than 50 %,
• if deviations between the theoreti-
cal and the actual spread rate oc-
cur.
The fertiliser calibration factor is determined:
• stationary – for all broadcasters.
I
During the fertiliser calibration de-
termination the spread rate entered
into AMATRON II A must not exceed
the value from the columns "to be
entered maximum spread rate during
the fertiliser calibration factor deter-
mination for 8 km/h" in table 1.

during the fertiliser calibration
factor determination in depend-
ence of working width and opera-
tional speed".

Procedure:
- Check the entered values for the desired
spread rate and the working width and correct if
necessary.
- Fill a sufficient amount of fertiliser into the stor-
age hopper.
- Remove the left hand (seen in driving direction)
spreading disc.
- Place the collection bucket underneath the dis-
charge opening (please observe the instruction
manual for ZA-M).

- Start the procedure by pressing key
T3
(Calibr.).

• The calibration procedure can be stopped by
pressing the key
T1
(Back).
- With the PTO shaft engaged run the tractor at
the rated speed (540 R.P.M.).
F
To start the calibration procedure
open the hydraulic shutter slide.

For measuring close the hydraulic
shutter slide earliest after 30 sec-
onds.
- After the hydraulic shutter slide has been
opened the shutter opening time (seconds) (Fig.
21/1) is shown on the display.
