IMPORTANT
FIND ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES THE DIFFERENT SEED RATES FOR SEVERAL
CROPS,ACCORDING TO THE SPROCKET COMBINATIONS.
THE CORRECT SEED PLATE MATCHING TO THE USED SEEDS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
NEVER MIX SEEDS OF DIFFERENT SIZES.
THE SEED AND FERTILIZER DISTRIBUTION TABLES OF THIS MANUAL, SHOULD BE USED AS
A REFERENCE TO START THE PLANTER CALIBRATION. FACTORS AS SLIPPAGE INDEX OF
THE PLANTER CARRYING-WHEELS (SKIDDING), WORKING SPEED, TIRES INFLATION AND
FIELD CONDITIONS CAN INTRODUCE VALUES A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM THOSE
INDICATED IN THE TABLES. THEREFORE, IT IS ALWAYS INDISPENSABLE TO MAKE THE
PRACTICAL DISTRIBUTION TESTS AS INDICATED ON THE PAGE 52 OF THIS MANUAL.
Procedures for the Sprockets
Handling
- Move the lever to alleviate the chain
tightener and lock with the pin in the hole.
- Move the cone of sprockets in the shaft,
aligning the chosen sprocket and the chain.
- Loosen the lever liberating the lock pin.
Change the seed rate per linear meter through the sprocket combinations of
the Drive Shaft
{A}
(17-, 21-, 25-, 34- and 38-tooth) and Driven Shaft
{B}
(14-, 17-, 22-,
28- and 30-tooth).
Note: - THE CONE BOLTS ON THE SPROCKETS HANDLING
"TRA" ARE PRE-ADJUSTED ON THE FACTORY,
ALLOWING CHANGE OF THE SPROCKETS
WITHOUT USE OF TOOLS. IN CASE OF ANY
SLIDING MOTION ON CONE SHAFT, JUST
RELEASE THE COUNTER NUT AND TURN AROUND
THE BOLT TO RE-LOCK.
IN ORDER TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE SPRING
AND SHAFTS NEVER APPLY EXCESSIVE TORQUE
WHEN TIGHTENING.
