5.3 Installation of the baffle plates
The baffle plates can be mounted using the standard supplied hexagon shaft or directly
(without the hexagon shaft) onto the soil tillage implement.
The following points must be noted when mounting onto the implement (cultivator, harrow,
etc.):
•
To install the baffle plates, you must use pliers to bend the "tabs" on the sides
towards the rear (approx. 80°, see Fig.: 3) and then bolt or weld them with the
hexagon shaft onto the implement.
•
To prevent the baffle plates from sliding to the sides on the hexagon shaft, fasten
the baffle plates with the supplied plate nuts and bolts (see Fig.: 4).
•
The baffle plates should be evenly distributed over the entire width of the implement
(max. 75 cm)!
•
The baffle plates should have approx. 40 cm clearance from the tilled soil!
•
The seed hoses should flow into the baffle plates vertically (90°). Therefore, the
baffle plates should also be mounted vertically (90°) on the hexagon shaft! (see
Fig.: 5)
