8.3 Setting the working width
• The type of fertiliser and desired working width determine the
setting of the pivotable spreading vanes.
The specific spreading properties of a fertiliser influence its
throwing range. The pivotable spreading vanes allow the ad-
justment of these specific spreading properties of a fertiliser, so
that the respective fertiliser can be spread over the desired
working width.
• Working widths between 33 – 59 ft or 10 - 18 m can be set.
The primary factors that affect the spreading properties are:
• Granule size
• Bulk density
• Surface condition
• Humidity
We therefore recommend the use of a well granulated fertiliser by a
renowned manufacturer and also checking of the working width set-
ting using the mobile fertiliser test rig.
WARNING
Danger of ejection of parts of the quick-release screw connec-
tion in event of incorrect tightening of the wing nut after the
working width is set!
After setting the working width, always check whether you have man-
ually retightened the wing nut of the quick-release screw connection.
