C.6 Checking the drop point
By altering the drop point, the working width can be accurately set and adjust-
ments to different fertiliser types can be made.
Check the setting of the drop point at the start of each working season, and during
the season if necessary (if uneven spreading is noticed).
NOTICE
The drop point must be set to the same position on both sides. Therefore, al-
ways check both settings.
1. AXIS 50.2 D: Manually set
the drop point to position 6.
AXIS 50.2 W: Set the drop
point with the QUANTRON
control unit to position 6.
2. Switch off the electronic sys-
tem.

tion 6.
n WARNING
Danger of crushing and shearing due to components operat-
ed by an external force
When working on power-operated components (adjusting lever,
metering slides), there is a crushing and shearing risk.
Pay attention to the shear point of the metering slide opening and
the metering slide during all adjustment work.
Switch the tractor motor off.
Remove the ignition key.
Disconnect the power supply between the tractor and the
machine.
Never actuate the hydraulic metering slide during adjust-
ment work.
