3.19 DURING SEEDING

- Each drive shaft has a torque limiter with a sound alarm (3 Fig.
29) that, when the pin breaks (1 Fig. 29), signals the anomaly
or fault that has occurred in the seed distributor. If this happens,
stop at once and put the fault right, remove the broken pin and
put in a new one (use the tool supplied for this).
- At the end of each run, while reversing, always keep the power
take-off running at sufficient revs. per minute to ensure that the
seeds remain attached to the distributor plates.
- During seeding check the seed distribution frequently and, if
irregular, adjust the selector.
- If there is a loss or decrease of suction, check that the pipes
are not damaged or clogged; if so, replace or clean them,
checking the aspirator belt also.
- The shape, dimensions and material of the drive shaft elastic
pins have been selected for reasons of safety. The use of
non-original or more resistant pins could cause serious dam-
age to the seeding machine.
- Start the power take-off gradually; sudden movements are
harmful to the aspirator belt.
- Avoid curves with the machine grounded, and do not work in
reverse. Always lift it when changing direction or reversing.
- Do not work with the power take-off synchronized with the
wheels.
- Do not exeed the number of revolutions per minute indicated
on the power take-off.
- Never push the tractor to maximum revs.
- Maintain a seed planting speed that is compatible with the
type and preparation of the soil in order to avoid breakages
or damage.
- Low the seeding machine while the tractor is moving so as
not to clog or damage the coulter parts. For the same reason
it is unadvisable to manoeuvre in reverse with the seeder
lowered.
- When filling the seed, fertilizer and insecticide hoppers,
ensure that no foreign bodies (string, paper, etc.) enter them.
The seeding machine can transport chemical substances. Do
not allow children, people, pets to come
near the seeding machine.
Do not place any bags of fertilizer or any other object on the
fertilizer distributor container covers to avoid breaking them
or endangering property or persons. Load from the outer sides
of the machine.
It is forbidden to come near the containers of the chemical
substances or to open them when the seeding machine is
operating or about to operate.
