Seed drill - Preparations for starting the operation
3.2.3.3.5 Programming tramline rhythm
The spacing of the tramlines depends on the working
width of the seed drill and of the later used machinery
such as, e. g.
•
fertiliser broadcaster and/or
•
field sprayer.
Depending on the working widths of those machinery it
is necessary to be able to create tramlines in varying
spacings to one another.
The rhythm in which the seed drill creates tramlines is
controlled by the switch box of the automatic marker
change over. The various tramline systems are described
in the seed drill's instruction book.
Example:
Seed drill:
3 m working width
Fertiliser broad-
caster/Field sprayer:
24 m working width =
24 m tramline spacing

Please look up the chapter "metering wheel-tramlining
control" of the seed drill's instruction book.

Look up in the mentioned tables the line in which the
seed drill working width (3 m) and the tramline
spacing (24 m) are mentioned side by side.

Read off control-rhythmus "8" (table 3.8).
