2 completely mounted meter rolls are included in the standard scope of delivery for the PS
800 M1:
1 meter roll with coarse-toothed metering cartridges (G-G-G) Fig.: 17
1 meter roll with one fine metering cartridge per outlet (fb-f-fb-fb) Fig.: 18
Scope of use for the coarse-toothed meter roll
(Fig.: 17):
Generally for large quantities or large seeds.
E.g.: grass mixtures, rye, barley, wheat, oats, etc.
Scope of use for the fine-toothed meter roll (Fig.: 18):
Generally for small quantities or small seeds.
Small seeds such as clover, phacelia, slug pellets, etc.
Scope of use for the Flex20 and the Flex40 metering
cartridges (Fig.: 19):
As these metering cartridges are flexible, damage to the
seed metering cartridges can be avoided.
For extra large seeds such as peas, vetch, etc., see also
under 7.5
CAUTION: For wheat or seed types with
grains of similar size or larger, the hoses
can be displaced at high spread rates.
This can lead to consequential damage,
such as more rapid wear of the meter roll!
To prevent such damage to the
implement, we recommend increasing the
air quantity to the maximum level!
TIP: Meter roll according to the customer's specifications. The spread rate can be reduced
significantly by using blind metering cartridges!
CAUTION: It is important to select the combination of metering cartridges such that the
meter roll settings on the control box are ideally between 20 % and 80 %.
This ensures good regulation and homogeneous delivery of the seed even with ground
speed related spreading at very low or high speeds!
