Procedures to change the sprockets
NOTE
Seeds distribution
Ideal working speed
The equipment works with higher efficiency on a speed range of
5 to 7 Km/h
.
To transport the planter, the speed must not exceed
15 km/h
.
• When planting corn, operate on a speed range of
5 to 5.5 km/h
.
• Keep a constant speed during the whole plantation.
NOTE
The amount and size of the holes/slots and the thickness of the seed plates can vary
according to the grain size and the desired plant amount.
Adjust the seed rate per linear meter through the sprocket combinations of the drive
shaft
{A}
(14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34 and 38 teeth) and driven shaft
{B}
(14,18, 22, 26, 30, 34
and 38 teeth).
ATTENTION • The procedure to change the sprockets to either the mechanical and
pneumatic system is the same.
Move the lever (C) to relieve the chain tightener and lock it using the pin.
Manually displace the set of sprockets in the shaft and align the chosen sprocket with
the chain.
Release the lever to loose the lock pin.
• The cone bolts (D) on the sprocket handling "TRA" are pre-adjusted on the
factory, allowing to change the sprockets without using any tool.
• In case of any sliding motion on the cone shaft, just release the counter nut
and twist the bolt to re-lock.
• In order to avoid damage to the spring and shafts, never apply excessive
torque when tightening.
