Maximum forward speed
When you set a new target dose in the RATE sowing dose screen, the console
recalculates and displays the maximum forward speed at which the dose can be
maintained (fig. 5). This is calculated using the sowing dose, the width of the
sower, the current CALIBRATION factor, the transmission ratio of the gearbox and
the maximum rotating speed of the motor.

NOTE: If the speed is too low, the operator has to open the dispenser and re-
calibrate in order to increase the calibration factor (see the 'CALIBRATION'
manual).
