ADJUSTMENT INFORMATION
5
Adjusting the plant spacing
The distance between one seedling and the next is de-
termined by the number of teeth of the pinions installed
and the number of grippers fitted to the dispenser.
A series of pinions may be fitted to ensure the required
plant spacing is obtained.
The pinions must be replaced on all the planting units
fitted.
The charts state the possible distances - in relation to the
grippers fitted on the dispenser - between one seedling
and the next according to the available pinion range.
To mount the pinions, see the section on “Replace the
driving wheel pinions” on page 38.
