8.1.1 Late topdressing
The shorter spreading vanes are equipped with
swivel blades that can be pivoted up without
using tools (Fig. 58/1) and allow late topdressing
of grain up to a crop height of 3,3 ft / 1 m with-
out additional accessories.
1. Switch off the universal joint shaft of the
tractor (if necessary).
2. Wait until rotating spreading discs come to
a complete standstill (if necessary) before
swivelling the spreading vanes.
3. Swivel the swivel blades (Fig. 58/1) of the
spreading vanes to the required position for
normal fertilising or late top dressing.
● Normal fertilising:
→ Swivel the swivel blades downward.
● Late top dressing:
→ Swivel the swivel blades upward

Mounting height for late top dressing:
Using the tractor's three-point hydraulic system,
set the mounting height of the spreader so that
the distance between the grain tips and the
spreading discs is approx. 2 in / 5 cm (Fig. 59).
