The number of crank turns on the star wheel
depends on the seed drill working width (Fig.
48/1).
The number of star wheel rotations (Fig. 48/2) is
based on an area of

1/40 ha (250 m
2
) or

1/10 ha (1000 m
2
).
The usual area for the calibration test is 1/40 ha.
With extremely small seeding rates, e.g. with
rapeseed, it is advisable to perform the
calibration test for 1/10 ha.

The calibration trays (Fig. 49/1) are used to
collect the calibrated seed.
While working, the calibration trays protect the
metering system from moisture.

The supplied collapsible bucket is used to
transfer the collected seed. The collected seed is
weighed in the collapsible bucket.
The collapsible bucket can be conveniently hung
on a digital scale (Fig. 50), which is also included
in the scope of delivery.
