11.0 - USABLE PLANTS

This transplanter has been produced for transplanting seedlings of vegetables,
flowers, tobacco, nursery plants etc., with conical or pyramidal peat rootball; for best
results observe the dimensions shown in fig. 7.  It is advisable to use seedlings with
a very moist rootball so as to accelerate drop times from the distributor and facilitate
the plant in taking root.
It is obviously best not to use too much water, so as to avoid troublesome dripping
during transplanting.

12.0 - TRAY HOLDERS

The cup-type trays containing the plants must be positioned in the appropriate rotating
tray holders.  If you wish to assist the operator in extracting the plants from the cups
by first loosening the plants, it is advisable not to loosen them too much, because the
trays are then arranged vertically, which may cause plants to fall involuntarily.
All plant trays must be removed when travelling on the road.

13.0 - LAND

You are advised to work on land which has been suitably prepared with harrows or
hoes.  The land must be sufficiently fragmented and slightly compacted on the
surface.
Do not work on very loose or very compact land, as this will make it difficult to achieve
consistent and good quality transplanting.
Take extreme care during manoeuvres on steeply sloping land.

14.0 - OPERATORS ON BOARD

Pay particular attention to the safety regulations in points 8.11 and 8.12.
