11.2 Cleaning the seed tube
DANGER
Never switch the blower fan (singling unit) on under the
following circumstances

if a seed line has detached from the housing

if the press rollers are raised.
Seed grains may emerge uncontrollably at high speeds and cause
injuries to unprotected parts of the body, particularly the eyes.
The AMATRON 3 indicates when one or more coulters are blocked
and the seed is no longer being placed in the soil.
The air flow in the seed tube then ceases and the supply of seed in
the seed tube is interrupted. The grains do not enter the delivery
hose, but accumulate at the sealing lip below the seed tube.
If there is blockage in the seed placement area
(Fig. 268/1), perform the following steps:

Clean the seed tube.

Eliminate seed accumulations at the sealing
lip.
