Adjusting the brush
A brush is mounted on the distribution rotor to regulate the seed flow.
The distance between the brush and the distribution rotor is adjusted
using a lever (A) attached to the seed drill frame.
The lever can be adjusted on a scale (B) from -5 (position closed to the
rotor) to +4 (position furthest from the rotor).
These adjustments allow the flow to be regulated according to the
seed weight.
