In order to regulate the seed volume,
slide the metering handle, which is
attached on the right. This moves the
pointer on the metering slide valve,
which is used to set the required
position on the scale. The metering
slide valve is then fastened in position
with the wing nut.
Position 0: closed; Position 10: all the
way open.
You can obtain the settings you require
from the corresponding scatter table. In
order to perform the calibration test, you can use the transport carton or a bag which
is placed over the front of the spreader. If you are using the carton, cut out one of the
sides and inserter the spreader. Then, using the control module, set the approximate
scatter disc speed you intend to use in the field and select the required value on the
scale for the metering slide valve. Selecting the right speed is important, because the
calibration quantity is also dependent on the speed!
Calibration is then carried out by opening the slide valve for precisely one minute

using the “open slide valve” button on the control module, while catching the scatter
material so none is wasted.
