The
determines
the instantaneous travel speed [km/h]
the instantaneous sowing rate [kg/ha]
the distance [m] remaining until the seed box is emptied of seed
the actual seed box content [kg].
Once a job has been started, the
stores
the day and total seed volume output [kg]
the day and total area cultivated [ha]
the day and total sowing time [h]
the average performance [ha/h].
5.6 WS coulter
Use your seed drill with WS coulters (Fig. 62)
for conventional drilling.
A guide hopper (Fig. 62/1) delivers the seed
immediately
behind the co
ulter tip (Fig. 62/2). A
precise and un
iform planting depth is achieved.
The hinged coulter support (Fig. 62/3) prevents
the coulter outlet clogging
when the seed drill is
set down.

5.6.1 Band sowing shoe (option)
The WS coulters can be equipped with band sowing shoes. Band
sowing improves the competition conditions for the growing wheat
plants. The precondition is a well-tilled seed bed.
The harroweeder is required to cover the seed.
Band sowing shoe I (Fig. 63) is particularly
well-suited to heavy soil.
The wedge-shaped shoe opens the band furrow.
