How to read the calibration charts
Use the chart corresponding to the selected disk type
(According to the number of holes).
The chart enables determining the position of the
gearbox gearwheels according to the spacing between
the seed drill rows and the number of plants required per
hectare.
Example:
For Maize seeds: 27 hole disk.
Seed row spacing: 75 cm (2’5’’).
Required population: 83000 plants/hectare.
To obtain a number of plants (1) close to the required
number with a spacing between rows (2) of 75 cm (2’5’’),
position gearbox gearwheels on ratio D1 (3).
The chart also indicates the spacing between
seeds (4) and the theoretical number of seeds
(5) over 1 m (3’3’’).
It is possible to determine the gearbox ration as
from this data.
If in between 2 values in the adjustment chart,
select the setting that gives the less plants per
hectare.
