Distance between cam wheel and spreader tank
For exact metering and discharge, the metering elements must be properly adjusted and free from
fertilizer residues.
The
distance between the cam wheels and the uppermost edge of the spreader tank must have a
uniform distance of approx. 3 mm across the entire width.
Checking the distance between the cam
wheels and the spreader tank
u
Insert a 3 mm thick metal strip into the
space between the cam wheels [1] and the
sheet edge of the spreader tank [2].
Fig. 57: Checking the distance between the cam
wheels and the spreader tank
The distance is set correctly if:
• The 3 mm
thick metal strip can be inserted over the entire measured width without any play,
• The distance is set uniformly across the entire width.
