carried out without fail.
Using arrow keys select “Abdrehprobe” (Calibration
trial) and confirm with OK.
- Displayed is:
Seed type, seed quantity and gearing position.
- Data for this is taken from the “Seed quantity setting”
menu.

- First of all 10 rotations of the seed drive must be
made using the crank handle so that the seed boxes
are filled with seed and the grains are aligned in the

* Remark: In
German word
usage it is normal
to use the term
„Abdrehen“
(which basically
means turning the
dosing device by
hand) instead of
„kalibrieren“ (me-
aning to calibrate,
electronically).
In this manual
we use the term
„kalibrieren“ in
order to avoid
any misunder-
standings with
text translations.
