Remove and overturn the supporting feet.
- Carry out a seeding trial, as described earlier in chapters 3.2.2
and 3.3.2.
- Periodically check the results of seeding.
IMPORTANT
For a successful seeding work it is useful to seed on a
small stretch and check that the seeds are regularly
distributed in the ground.
- At the end of seeding, discharge the remaining seeds
through the doser door.
3.8.2 DURING WORK
Bear in mind that a variation in tractor speed does not lead to a
corresponding variation in seed sown per hectare.
Always respect the following rules for successful sowing:
- Keep the hydraulic lifting device in the lowest position.
ATTENTION
Observe the height of the front equipment from the
ground as indicated in chapter 3.1.1 reference 9.
- During the seeding operation, always maintain the
number of rotations for the requested power take-
off.
- Check at times that the operating parts are not
covered with vegetable residual matter or clogged by
earth
- Check that the distributor is clean, and prevent any
external matter (no seed) accidentally fallen into the
hopper from hampering the smooth seeding
operation.
- Check in any case that the grain tubes are not clogged
- Maintain a seeding speed compatible with type and
cultivation of the soil
- Periodically check the results of seeding.
- The form dimensions and material of the drive shaft
elastic pins have been chosen for safety. The use of
pins not original or more resistant, could cause serious
damage to the seeding machine.
- Avoid curves with the machine grounded, neither
work in reverse.
Always lift it when changing direction or reversing.
- Start the power take-off progressively; sudden
movements are harmful to the belt.
- Maintain a seeding speed compatible with type and
cultivation of the soil in order to avoid breakages or
damage.
- Lower the seed drill when the tractor is in forward
gear, to avoid clogging or damage to the planter shoes;
for the same reason the tractor should not reverse
when the seed drill is on the ground.
- Make sure that no foreign material (rope, sack paper)
enters the storage tank when seed is being loaded.

The seeder can transport treated chemical substances
together with the seed. Do not allow children, people,
pets to come near the seeding machine.
Keep away from the seed storage tank and refrain from
attempting to open it when the seeder is working or
about to begin working.
4.0 ACCESSORIES
4.1 REAR SPRING HARROW
The working pressure of the spring teeth of the seed-covering
harrow may be varied by rotating the spring on the upper parallel
arm (Fig. 23).
When the arm pins on the four holes are shifted, the clearance
angle of the spring teeth varies (Fig. 24).
4.2 ROW MARKER DISK ADJUSTMENT
The row marker is a machine that traces a reference line parallel
to the tracks of the tractor on the ground.
When the tractor hnishes a row and makes a U-turn, the front
wheel will begin the new row through alignment with the line
traced in parallel (Fig. 26).
The row marker will continue to trace a parallel reference line
during its progress down each row.
The inversion of the row-marker arms is moved by means of a
control on the seeder.
