SPREADING ON NON RECTANGULAR FIELDS
When spreading in non rectangular fields, it is often the opinion that one side of the
maschine should be closed in order to achieve a good result. Closing one side of
the machine results in sharp overlaps in the areas where the closing is done.
Spreaders where the spreading discs are rotating towards eachother ensures ”soft
overlaps” when spreading in non rectangular areas of the field – and one side of
the machine should not be closed.
•
At first the HEADLAND spreading is made.
•
Afterwards you spread in normal way – in the tramlines. (See sketch)
•
The OPEN / CLOSE time depends on the angle of the field and OPENING /
CLOSING must be done in comparison to the spread width.
Opening and closing of the spreader outlets is made as shown on the sketch.
It may be necessary in narrow angled areas to spread with REDUCED SPREAD WIDTH.
