¾ Calibrate the machine (see E-Manager in-
structions).
¾ Close the ap / covering. Ensure air tightness!
¾ Twin hopper: Perform calibration for both
metering units.
Two distributor towers are installed at the rear
of the seed tank for seed or fertiliser distribution.
All distributor components must be leak tight.
Even slightest leaks and air losses will cause
uneven distribution.
Distributor tower
1 Seed ow sensors
2 Tram line valves
The distributor is equipped with valves for the
tram line control.
The arrangement depends on the working width,
the tram line rhythm, the track width of the spray-
ing and spreading machine and the number of
valves per track.
The valve function can be checked by examin-
ing the air ow on the seed coulters or the seed
placement on the surface.
Risk of crushing on the metering unit
¾ Do not reach into the rotating metering unit.
¾ Calibrate the machine only when lowered and
parked securely.
¾ Do not use sticky dressings with seed. They
inuence metering accuracy.
¾ Check seed and hopper for foreign objects!
¾ Depending on the seed install the rape
brushes or, for coarse seeds, the adapter
frame, the deector and the wide sealing lip.
For grain and fertiliser disassemble the ac-
cessory parts. Check all side covers on the
metering unit.
¾ Install the appropriate roller for the seed/
fertiliser quantity and check for true running.
¾ Check condition and correct setting of seal-
ing lip.
¾ Fill the hopper with seed / fertiliser. Only ll in
small amounts of ne seeds.
¾ Open the valve or covering under the meter-
ing units (1)
¾ Check and clear the fall sluice and the pipes
of any dirt and seed deposits. Attach the
calibration bag or slide it in along the rails (2).
