Pedestal Chain Guards
To prevent hands, etc. getting caught in drive chains, guards
are provided to cover sprockets, chain and chain tensioners
mounted about the drive pedestal (RHS). These guards must
be fitted while using the machine.
Warning
: Access to pinch points is still possible from
underneath the guard.
For guard locations on machine, refer Page 13.
Calibrating
Be particularly careful when calibrating the seeding rate. At
this time, the calibration trays have been removed and are no
longer covering the rotating seeder units. See
Pinch Points/
Moving Parts
(Page 11) for hazardous areas.
Transport
The two wheels located at the sides of the machine are for the
purpose of controlling sowing depth. These are also used to
support the machine weight during transport (while linked to
the tractor).
