7.3 Contact point adjustment
Contact point adjustment enables the accuracy of distribution to be
optimally regulated. With contact point adjustment, the two scatter
cones of the twin-disc spreader can be arranged such that the
overlap of the two cones is optimal.
A kind of pivotable hopper is mounted to each of the two discharge
openings in the spreading tank, through which the stream of
spread material flows onto the spreader disc. A lever is used to
adjust this discharge opening, which changes the point at which
the grain hits the spreader disc.
TIP: Make sure that the contact point for both
spreader discs is always set symmetrically, i.e. the
position on the left and the right scales must be set
the same. The scale positions are engraved
directly into the frame of the spreader.
If the contact point adjustment lever is fixed in the
position +45 (all the way back), then the scatter
cone is directed outwards (= small overlap of
the scatter cones). The further forwards the lever
is set, towards position -45, the further the contact
point moves back and the scatter cone moves
towards the centre (= larger overlap of the scatter cones).
The contact point adjustment setting is also dependent upon the seed in question.
7.4 Spread width
The spread width depends on the density and shape of the seed and the spreader
disc speed. The spreader is designed to spread seed, e.g. slug pellets, evenly over
an area of more than 31 m. For this to be successful, the battery and generator must
be in good condition. Please refer to the setting charts under item 8 for the precise
settings for sowing rate, working width, etc.
Note: If the ZS 200 M4 is fitted to machines with a small working width, and the seed
is to be scattered directly into/in front of the roller, the spreader can even be angled
down slightly. However, please note that the tank only empties completely if it is
level!
