Setting the placement depth of the seed by resetting the RoTeC
+
-depth limit-
ing discs (special option)
In order to ensure an even seed placement even
in changing soil conditions the RoTeC
+
coulters
are equipped with depth limiting discs (Fig. 84/1).
When having ordered the seed drill with depth
limiting discs they have been set by the factory in
position 1 (see para.9.5.3) for a placement depth
of approx. 2 cm for medium heavy soils. For
slightly increasing the placement depth the coul-
ter pressure may be increased with the aid of the
coulter pressure adjustment according to
unterhalb. Before every operation check the cor-
rect position of the depth limiting discs and the
placement depth of the seed.
