Spill prevention plates
Spill prevention plates must be adjusted so that they remove
any soil ridges that may be created between the furrows. They
must therefore press lightly against the ground when sowing.
The spill prevention plates are adjusted vertically depending
on seed depth and the prevailing conditions.
Remove the cotter pin (A) and place it at the desired height
position.
When you have found the right height, you should also tighten
the screw union (B) to prevent play.
The spill prevention plates are also adjustable horizontally, by
moving the bolts on the top (C).

It is also possible to adjust the angle of the spill prevention
plates against the ground. Loosen the screws (D),
Adjust the angle and tighten to 385 Nm.
It is important that, once adjustment is done, the bottom
edge lies flat against the ground or is angled slightly back-
wards.
In order to reduce transport width, the spill prevention plates
can be folded up.
Loosen the cotter pin (A), fold up the spill prevention plates
and lock them again using the cotter pin.
