5.6.1 Advice for setting the seed placement depth
The seed placement depth is set in relation to the
relevant rest on the wedge ring tyre roller.
Insert the depth setting pins (Fig. 107/1) for setting the
seed placement depth into the desired hole in the
setting segments underneath the carrying arms and
secure using lynch pins (Fig. 107/3).
The depth setting pins (Fig. 107/1) are provided with a
square end with different distances. The edges are
marked with the figures 1 to 4 (Fig. 107/2).
The different distances on the square end allow an
even better tuning of the seed placement depth than
between the individual square holes an the setting
segment.
Ensure that the edges and figures of the depth setting
pins coincide on all carrying arms.

The deeper the hole (Fig. 108/2) is chosen and the
higher the figure is (Fig. 108/1) on the contact surface
of the carrying arm, the deeper the placement depth of
the seed will be.
The placement depth of the seed depends on the kind
of soil and the forward speed.
Inserting the depth setting pins within one hole from
figure to figure results in a seed placement depth
change of approx. 7 mm.
