Neutral between the 2 positions. (To move
from position (1) to the position (2), it may be
necessary to rotate the output shaft (5) by some
degrees).

- Manually(gure7):
The VOLUX or SUPER VOLUX pump features
two graduated dials on the left-hand side, together
with an index.
The position of this index indicates the volume/
hectare when multiplied by 100.
Example:
If the index is on 5, the pump is set at 500 l/ha.

A special wrench and pin are used to adjust the
index.

The pin (3) is inserted in the holes located on
the dial support ring (4).
Loosen the 2 nuts (5).
While maintaining the shaft with the wrench (1),
pivot the dial with the pin (3) and move it to the
desired graduation.
Tighten the 2 nuts (5).
Remove the wrench (1) and the pin (3).
- Electric programming (option):
The stroke of the Volux pump pistons is adjusted
using the TELEVOLUX control box (gure 8).
