MONSUN MC | ME
Use the spindle to set the distance of the beam to fix sowing coulters above the ground. With regard
to the sowing coulters structure and their stops it is important to keep the correct distance of the
beam above the ground. If such height is not observed, there is a risk of worsened sowing in terms of
its depth, or damage of machine in case of too small distance above the ground.
Regularly check the height of the beam. The height of the beam depends also on other
factors, such as:
-
size of tires,
-
pressure in tires,
-
machine wheel recess (depending on soil conditions).
Prepare the sowing technology in its working position.
Put the seed drill down.
Measure the distance of the lower beam edge above the ground. The distance should be about 33
cm.
Adapt the beam height by turning the spindle or tensioning screws.
In case of MC it is necessary to turn equally tensioning screws on both sides of the
beam.
Distance of the beam above the ground.
Sowing depth
Set the sowing depth using the push wheel on the sowing coulter.
Depth control enables a better plant growing. The seed sowing remains the same even at higher
speed.
Prepare the sowing technology in its working position.
Put the lower arms down.
Unlock and remove the lock from the pin on the push wheel holder.
Moving the pin to a specific hole set the required depth.
Lock the pin.
