Dry Fertilizer
The Monosem dry fertilizer system is precisely metered
by use of an auger. The standard output is adjustable
from 80-350 lbs/acre and up to 600 lbs/acre using a high
output auger. A non-corrosive plastic hopper with drain
plug has a capacity of from 2-row 500 lbs to 12-row 2900
lbs with single, double or triple outlet hoppers. A flexible
knife opener or a double disc opener applies fertilizer from
a minimum of 2" to the side of the seed line.
Assembly and Adjustment
The supports (1) of the fertilizer can be attached at two
different widths on the hoppers, and can be easily attached
to available spots on the bar. See diagram as shown.
The drive is normally mounted in the center of the
machine, as close as possible to the left side of the
gearbox. For narrow inter-row spacing this drive can be
placed on the outside of the tool-bar frame. In that case,
an optional bearing (#4515) can be used.
It is possible (but not necessary) to counter clamp the
fertilizer opener clamps to the planting units. The two
inner rows cannot always be mounted in this manner
because of the hitch brackets. As half of the fertilizer
knives are offset to the left and the other half are offset to
the right, they can be adjusted as needed.
NOTE: When using double disc openers the wheels
of the tractor must be perfectly centered on
the inter-rows or the spring leaves will come in
contact with the tires during lifting.
NOTE: With row spacing of less than 32" (80 cm) the
double disc openers are not compatible with the
standard semi-automatic hitch. Semi-automatic
hitch with short shaft and pin are required,
or manual hitch with pins.
NOTE: If the connector tubes between the hoppers
are too long, they can be cut to size.
As an option, a 2-row hopper can feed 3 or 4 outlets, and
a 3-row hopper can feed 4, 5, or 6 outlets. The fertilizers
are then delivered with a meter specially equipped and
plugs to allow certain outlets to be blocked off as desired.
The primary adjustment is set by using the lower double
sprocket. The final adjustment is made by using one

of the sprockets of the upper sprocket cluster. Outputs
can thus be obtained between approximately 80 to 350
lbs/acre (80-350 kg/ha).
Different outputs can be obtained by replacing the
standard auger painted blue, with a special (optional) high
output auger painted red.
Because of the large variety of fertilizers and its density
and irregularity of granules, it is impossible to furnish an
exact setting chart. To make an initial setting, as a guide
only, an output of 80 lbs/acre, approximately between 1.2
lbs for each 334 feet (600-650 grams every 100 meters)
is obtained with many types of fertilizers using the small
lower sprocket cluster and the big upper sprocket cluster.
The placement of the fertilizer should be between 2"
and 4" (6 and 10 cm) on the side of the row. A closer
placement than what is recommended may cause the
plant to burn and curb its growth.
Use How to Test Fertilizer Rates to find correct sprocket
setting for the desired fertilizer rate.
