SETTING THE FINE SEEDS SOWING
The minimum setting of the turnstile for fine seeds is 5 mm. Lower setting may cause inaccuracies in seed
feeding. Poppy seeds are an exception as due to the very small size of the seeds and the seed rate the turnstile
can be opened to 4 mm.
Before filling the seed into the hopper, it is very important to check the purity of the turnstile and the dosing
planer on the dosing roller.
For fine seeds, set the setting roller to position 0 – the container must be cleaned and closed beforehand
and the seeding mechanism must be empty. Place the closing valve on the body of the feeder into the cut on
the hexagon shaft. This way the roller of the feeder can move only within the range from 0 to 25 mm.
