- Tighten nut (1).
zGroundspeed
For optimum precision and seeding evenness, it is
recommended to travel at a speed comprised between 5
and 7 km/h (3.1 - 4.3 mph).
Suction must be comprised between 50 and
65 mbar (or cm water column).
- A lower suction value can cause misses
on the seeding line.
- A higher suction value can cause
doubles on the seeding line and
premature disk wear.
The measure must be made with disks fitted,
seeds engaged on the disks.
For precise measure of the suction value, a
vacuometer can be installed on the machine.
Kit no. 1677223.
Check that the flap is free to rotate and that
no element interfers during its movement.
If the flap is not free to move upwards during
seeding, there will be no suction at the
distribution disk level.
Adapt the forward speed to the working
conditions.
A variation in the ground speed of 2 km/h
(1.2 mph) is equivalent to a loss of accuracy
of around 10 %.
Groundspeed must be adapted to the
encountered working conditions (Soil nature
and presence or absence of plant residues).
