Transport/Installation
There is increased risk of accident on initial
installation. Please pay attention to the instruc-
tions in the appropriate chapters.
Delivery
The seeder and optional equipment is usually
delivered with a low-loader in a fully assembled
condition.
If parts or optional equipment are disassembled
for transportation then they are assembled on-
site by our distribution partners or our company
fitters.
The machine can be unloaded with a tractor or
has to be lifted off with suitable lifting gear (fork
lift or crane) depending on the version of the
low-loader.
Pay attention that the lifting equipment and
hoisting devices provide sufficient load bearing
capacity.
The bearing pressure and clamping points are
indicated by stickers.
Attention is to be paid to the centre of gravity and
distribution of weight for other hitching points.
These points should definitely only be attached
to the frame of the machines.
Machines with DrillManager ME
The lifting / lowering hydraulic function does
not need to be additionally installed in all ma-
chines with the DrillManager ME seeder control
panel.
These machines can be unloaded from the
low-loader without the basic equipment having
to be installed.
Further hydraulic functions like wings or bout
markers can only operated from the tractor after
the basic equipment has been installed.
The function " wings" is connected to its own
control unit in some versions.
Installation
Our customer service employees or distribu-
tion partners are responsible for instructing the
operator and carrying out the initial installation
of the machine.
Use of machine prior to instruction is
prohibited!
The machine can only be cleared for operation
after instructions have been made by customer
service employees or distribution partners and
the operating instructions have been read.
There is increased risk of accident
when carrying out installation and
maintenance work. Make yourself fa-
miliar with the machine and read the
Operation Manual before carrying out
installation and maintenance work.
