TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Overview
This work vehicle is designed and built for planting seed-
lings of various kinds (e.g. horticultural,
floral, tobacco,
nursery-grown, etc.), rooted in conical or pyramid-
shaped root balls, including small plants with hardly de-
veloped leaf apparatus (see “Seedling size” schedule).
The work vehicle is a semi-carried device, equipped with
a frame for attaching to the three-point hitch on a tractor
and it is suitable for planting in fields and greenhouses.
The moving parts (dispenser, ejector, etc.) are driven
by the works vehicle’s driving wheels (when these are
touching the ground) and the movement of the tractor.
The seedling falls from the dispenser into the furrow cre-
ated by the ploughshare and the packing wheels fill back
up and compact the soil around the seedling root ball.
The work vehicle is manufactured in several models
which differ mainly in terms of the number of planting
units featured.
The (rear and left) driving wheels can both be power
driven, or one can be powered while the other is idle.
The model featuring one work unit has just one driving
wheel.
