4.1.4 FEELER PIN
The feeler unit may also be easily disassembled in a single
block in a matter of minutes for cleaning purposes. It consists of
5 single hatches that are spring-loaded to ensure tight closing.
The hatches do not touch the seeding wheel while it is in
operation! Thanks to the separators fixed between one hatch
and the next, it is possible to activate each element independently

damage the dosing roller. The hatches are adjustable and can
be lowered by up to 14 mm, and their shape has been specifically
designed to adapt to the seeds, so that even distribution is
obtained even for difficult seeds (e.g. peas) and rape seeds can
be planted almost without oily residue (when the most suitable
roller for the seeds in question is selected)
