Cleaning the seed drill
The seed drill must be cleaned inside and out on a regular basis to ensure long-term
proper functioning. If not cleaned properly, germs can form inside the seed drill due to
seed residues.
To clean the seed drill:
1. Empty the seed hopper (see Emptying the seed hopper for this, Point 8.2).
2. Remove the seeding shaft (see Dismounting (changing) the seeding shaft for this,
Point 6.7).
3. Fold back the cover of the seed hopper to open it. (Caution: the cover of the MDC
cannot be opened without tools.)
4. Clean the inside of the seed drill and the seed paths with compressed air.
5. Clean the outside of the seed drill with a moist cloth.
CAUTION:
ensure that no water enters the hopper or the implement. The inside of
the implement can only be cleaned with compressed air!
Repairs and service
In case of failure or damage to the seed drill, please contact the manufacturer. The
