5.15 Working with an AMAZONE mounted seed drill
To couple the mounted seed drill, fit the soil tillage implement with the
following, as required:

Coupling parts

Lifting frame.
5.15.1 Coupling parts (optional)
The coupling parts are used to attach the
mounted seed drill.
The coupling parts have Cat. II pivot points to
attach mounted seed drills of the same category.
Fig. 67
The coupling parts are approved for seed drills
up to a total weight of 1200 kg.
5.15.2 Lifting frame (optional)
If the lifting power of the tractor is not sufficient to raise the combina-
tion of soil tillage implement, roller and mounted seed drill with the
coupling parts, the lifting power requirement can be reduced using
the lifting frame.
The lifting frame first lifts the seed drill over the roller. This reduces
the total lifting power requirement. With a reduced lifting power re-
quirement, the tractor hydraulics raise the combination in order to turn
at the end of a field or for transport.
During road transport, the raised lifting frame is locked.
The lifting frame is used to attach the mounted
seed drill and is available in two versions, de-
pending on the total weight of the seed drill.

Lifting frame 2.2 (Fig . 68) is approved for
seed drills up to a total weight of 1,600 kg.
