FORWARD SPEED CALIBRATION
The TeeJet 5000 V.4 fertiliser distributor program (Bøgballe) gives the option of
choosing between 3 different speed sensors (Wheel tractor, Wheel spreader,
Radar).
WHEEL TRACTOR
The speed signal can come from a sensor fitted in the gear box, or on a drive
shaft, or from a sensor fitted on a wheel, depending on the make and model of the
tractor used for fertiliser spreading
RADAR
If the tractor is fitted with radar then select “RADAR” and forward speed will be
measured from the radar.
IMPORTANT! Working in crops that are blowing in the wind or working in
areas with surface water can affect the accuracy of the radar,
we recommend using a speed sensor fitted to the tractor
under these circumstances.
WHEEL SPREADER
If the spreader is fitted with a speed sensor, press the “WHEEL SPREADER” key.
The TeeJet 5000 will now receive speed signals from the sensor fitted to the
spreader.
IMPLEMENT SENSOR
