2.2.2 How to install the photocells
Photocells must be placed on each single row of the seed drill close to the seed-drop
area; if seed drills with seed-drop pipes are used, photocells must be placed at about
half the length of the pipe.
To install photocells, proceed as follows:
distribute the photocells cables on the seed drill air pipes, respecting the row
numeration (Figure 2);
fix the junction box
(A)
at the centre of the seed drill with some clamps held to
the machine;
install the photocells taking into account the references of the sowing element
(reported on the technical sheet which is related to the type and mark of the seed
drill used, and enclosed with this manual).
!
Warning
make sure that photocells do not obstacle the seed-drop or the
mechanical functioning of the sowing element.
