00384068

Pressure display for fan drive

00386231

Pressure gauge

(1) MTS (Main Tank Supply)

(2) Overpressure fan

00385802

Preload pressure on the coulter discs
(single coulter disc) min. 100 bar.

00380210

Ensure leak tightness of seed hopper and
the entire pneumatic system to avoid
leaks.
Leaks will cause sowing faults.
Air losses reduce the placing quantity,
which could even drop to zero.
