5.5.3 Seed shutter
The seed flows from the seed hopper to the fluid
bed (Fig. 61/1) directly in front of the singling
drum.
The fluid bed may not be completely filled with
seed. Otherwise, a fluidised bed cannot be
created when air is supplied later on.
If too much seed enters the fluid bed, reduce the
feed quantity by adjusting the seed shutter (Fig.
61/2).
Fig. 61
The sight glass should be half full with seed
when the implement is at rest.
The adjustment of the seed shutter depends on
the working speed and the seed.
