Activities before spreading

Review and adaptation
The maximum permissible loss in the ditch is established in the
environmental standards (EN 13739-1). In order to comply with the
standards the quantity of fertiliser in the 1st trough, standing in the
notional ditch, must be a maximum of 10% of the quantity collected in
the trough in the middle of the track (= 100%).
The trough on the land next to the notional ditch provides an insight
into the topping. It will never be 100%.
If you set the TrimFlow 1 position higher or lower (e.g. from 1 to 1A or
from 3 to 2A), change the working width on the side of the ditch
roughly as follows:
•
Spreader horizontal: 0.3 metres,
•
Spreader 8º headlong: 0.5 metres.
Set the spreading height back to the tray test
During the tray test the disc height above the troughs was set to 75
cm.
Imagine spreading with the disc height at 75 cm above the ground
or crops!
See section »spreading height« on page 151.
A
Good spreading pattern, the TrimFlow has been adjusted
well
B
The TrimFlow is not spreading widely enough.
Set this 1 position wider (e.g. from 3 to 3A or from 8 to
transport position).
Repeat the test.
C
The TrimFlow is spreading too widely:
Set this 1 position narrower (e.g. from 5 to 4A or from
transport position to 8).
Repeat the test.
