Planting through plastic mulch mode

Information
During the planting stage, lift the float skid to its
stroke limit to prevent damage to the plastic mulch.
The seedlings must be planted in soil which has been
finely tilled with a harrow or hoeing machine, lightly
compacted on the surface, and covered with a plastic
mulch sheet.
The mulch sheet must be laid out suitably taut with the
soil ridged up along the side edges.
We recommend you dampen the root ball well (but with-
out causing dripping) to help the dispenser plant the
seedling and ensure the plant is more likely to take root.
Do not work on extremely spongy spoil, or extremely
compact soil, nor on very wet ground, as these condi-
tions would all affect planting quality negatively.
During planting, the work vehicle's driving wheels must

INFORMATION FOR USE
5) The operators on the work vehicle must check the
planting quality constantly. In the event of anoma-

grip the ground at all times and the tractor lift must be
fully lowered.
Preliminary operations
Before starting the planting, the following operations
must be carried out.
1) Lift the float skid to the stroke limit (see "Adjusting
the float skid" - page 19).
2) Check that the plant spacing is correct. The plant
spacing depends on the number of drilling cups fit-
ted on the dispenser and/or the number of teeth on
the pinion that transmits the motion to the dispenser
(see "Plant spacing range" - page 6).
3) Check that the row spacing is correct (see "Adjusting
the row spacing" - page 18).
4) Check that the plastic mulch pressing skids (G) are fit-
ted, and if they are not, proceed by fitting them (see
"Installing the plastic mulch pressing skids" - page
15).
