3.10 LONGITUDINAL SEEDING DISTANCE

The longitudinal seeding distance is determined by the number
of holes on the seed plate, by the number of teeth and position of
the gears on the wheel which transmits the motion to the gearbox,
and by how the gears are combined in the gearbox. On the cover
of the gearbox there is a table for adjusting the seeding distance
and a table that shows the drive fitted on the gear drive wheel.
To adjust the longitudinal seeding distance proceed as follows,
referring to the tables on page 45:
- Choose the plate to be installed on the seeders according to
the size of the seed to be planted;
- Check on the seeder how many teeth the pinions have (wheel)
indicated in the tables on page 45;
- Look for the table that indicates the pair of pinions the same as
those fitted on the seeder;
- Use the column of the plate chosen to find the seeding distance
desired;
- Move left and see on which pair of gears (A - B) to place the gear
chain.
- To move the chain, open the gearbox cover and loosen the
chain (1) by means of the lever. (2 Fig. 23)
- Put the chain on the gears selected and align them (Fig. 24).
- Tension the chain again by means of the lever (2 Fig. 23) and
close the cover.
- If you cannot obtain the distance you require with the pinions
installed (wheel) (Fig. 25), consult the table to see whether they
should be inverted or replaced.

3.11 SEED PLATES

(*) Special for beans.
(**) The seed distributor cover should be replaced by a special
one suitable for small seeds.
For special requirements make a specific order.
The values shown on the table are approximate. The definite
choice of seed plates is completely up to the user. Complaints
for imprecise sowing due to utilization of improper seed plates
will not be accepted.
