8.3.3
Checking the working width and lateral distribution
The working width is influenced by the respective spreading proper-
ties of the fertiliser.
The most important influential factors on the spreading properties are
known to be
•
the grain size,
•
the bulk density,
•
the surface properties and
•
the moisture.
The setting values from the setting chart are therefore only to be con-
sidered as
reference values
, since the spreading properties of the
fertiliser types can change.
Check the working width and lateral distribution and optimise the
fertiliser spreader settings by using:
•
a mobile test rig
•

See separate operating manual
Specifications for checking the working width and lateral distribution:
•
as little wind as possible (wind speeds < 3 m/s).
•
never perform a spreading test with side winds. If necessary,
adjust the orientation of the spreading test for the wind direction.
