Seed collecting trays
The seed for the calibration test drops into the
seed collecting trays.
The number of seed collecting trays (Fig. 27/1)
corresponds to the number of the metering units.
For transport the seed collecting trays are fitted
into each other secured affixed using a linch pin
(Fig. 27/2) on the hopper rear wall.
Calibration crank in parking position (Fig. 27/3).

Fan
The hydraulic motor (Fig. 28/2) drives the fan
(Fig. 28/1) and creates an air flow. The air flow
delivers the seed from the injector sluice to the
coulters.
The blower fan rev. speed is settable
•
on the power regulating valve on the tractor
or (in case not available)
•
on the pressure relief valve (Fig. 28/3) of
the hydraulic motor.

RoTeC
+
-Schar
The AMAZONE RoTeC+ - coulter can be safely
used for both mulch and conventional drilling.
Seed furrow former made from hard cast alloy.
The elastic polyurethane (PU) depth limiting
cleaning disc keeps the inner disc surface clean
(Fig. 29/1). The naps (Fig. 29/2) provide addi-
tional drive.
The PU depth limiting disc precisely controls the
depth of the seed furrow via three settings from 2
to 4 cm. For work deeper than 4 cm the depth
limiting disc can be instantly removed without
any tool.
The placement depth is hydraulically set via the
coulter pressure.
