If the spacing between seeds in the soil, which is measured by 

COV (Coefficient of Variation) or SRI (Seed Distribution Index), is not 

sufficient, we recommend that the following actions be taken:

High COV or low SRI

Make sure that the vacuum pressure is correctly set. If multiples

persist, decrease the vacuum pressure until the multiples have been

reduced as much as possible.

Check that the seeds have been properly lubricated. It is 

recommended that dry powdered graphite, talc or a mixture of both 

be applied to the seeds and mixed in a uniform manner to ensure 

that seeds move easily within the meter.

Check the kits for signs of excessive wear. For more information see 

the section 

End-of-Life Signs on page 10

 of this manual.

Check the meter’s seed outlet and the seed tube. Debris inside 

the seed tube and poorly installed seed sensors can result in 

interference when guiding the seeds to the soil, which in turn 

affects the seed distribution.

Check the meter’s drive system. Make sure the system is in proper

operating condition and well lubricated.

Check for objects preventing the Kit Apollo from rotating continuously.

Check that the seeds have been properly lubricated. It is 

recommended that dry powdered graphite, talc or a mixture of both 

be applied to the seeds and mixed in a uniform manner to ensure 

that seeds move easily within the meter. This will ensure that the 

seeds are released from the metering disk at the right time.

Reduce speed to check if the problem is being caused by 

excessive vibration.

If the seed tube includes a seed sensor, check to make sure that it
