Next turn the switch of the rotation unit (picture 55) forward (icon: fertilizer grains) and keep it
switched on continually as long as electric motors rotate and feed fertilizer into calibration trays.
Weight the result and multiply it by 100.
Example:
Target is to sow fertilizer 450 kg/ha and the weighted amount is 4,1 kg.
4,1 kg*100 = 410 kg. Set value 450 to the monitor.
Press again the button of the same memory spot (with which the calibration was just done) for a few
seconds. The sowing amounts adjusting menu opens. Press button “Cal kg” (icon 2.) and enter the
weighing result * 100 as the value. Accept by pressing OK and you will return to the sowing menu.
Define the setting by doing the calibration as many times as necessary, until you think that
the required fertilizer amount per hectare and the value of the weighing result are close
enough to each other.
After this you can freely set the feeding amounts of your fertilizer into the memory spots, buttons 13,
14 and 15, picture 47.
This is done by pressing the selected memory spot button for a few seconds: the sowing amounts
adjusting menu opens, picture 58.
The button kg on the top left has been activated to yellow. Use number keys for the fertilizer amount
which you wish to set to the said memory spot. When you have set the required amount, accept it
by pressing OK button. The sowing amounts adjusting menu disappears and we return to the sowing
menu. The value you set above has been saved as the value for the said memory spot.
Set values for two more fertilizer feed amount memory spots in the same way.
You can change fertilizer amounts from one value to another, either changing the memory spot or
by changing the value of the memory spot as explained above.
Note! Finally remember to turn the calibration tray lever back into its sowing position, picture
52.
EPEC has, as a factory setting, the correct amount of calibration rotations, so that it corresponds to
one are area, both for fertilizer and for seed.
11.5.16 Seed feeding amount, calibration and settings
Tume Draco can be used for sowing all usual grains, beans, peas and small seeds.
The seed feeding devices are equipped with pin rollers below which there are adjustable bottom
flaps. There are two adjusting levers, at both rear corners of the machine, pictures 59 and 60.
