3.8 Setting disc vanes for fertilizers not listed in spreading charts
A practical test kit, supplied as an optional, extra offers a simple and quick method
of checking the spread patterns. By using this kit it is possible to obtain settings for
fertilizers not listed in the spreading charts.
♦
Choose a fertilizer from the spreading charts that has the nearest characteristics to
the one that needs to be used and adjust the spreader to these settings.
♦
Test on a dry calm day so that weather conditions do not influence the results.
♦
A test area should be chosen which is horizontal in both directions and is large e-
nough to achieve 3 tramlines over a length of 60 to 70 m.
♦
Carry out the test, either on freshly mown grass or in a field with low vegetation
(max. 10cm), and make sure that the 3 tramlines run parallel to each other. When
carrying out a test without pre-set tramlines the tracks must be measured using a
tape measure and marked with suitable post markers.
♦
The three tracks must not contain any notable bumps or hollows as these could
cause a shift in the spread pattern.
♦
Place two collecting containers one behind the other (1m apart) as per the follow-
ing sketch. One pair in each overlap zone and one pair in the centre of the middle
tramline.
