1.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE SEEDER

This farming implement, can only be operated by a farming tractor
equipped with lift unit and universal three-point hitch.
The seeder is suitable for use (by itself), or combined with
equipment for working the land (harrow).
It is suitable for sowing cereal: wheat, barley, rye, oats, rice.
For minute and forage seeds: rape, clover, sedge, rye-grass.
For coarse seeds: soya, peas.
Seeds are laid down on the ground by means of ploughing
devices, planter shoe or single, and they are distributed
continuously.
The quantities to distribute are set through a seed distributor, the
motin of which derives from the crawler wheel through traction.
The arms of the furrowing tools, independent of each other, di-
spose of a wide margin of oscillation to adapt to the surface of the
ground.
The seeder is suitable only for the uses indicated. Any other
use different from that described in these instructions could
cause damage to the machine and represent a serious hazard
for the user.
