3.4.4.3 DISTRIBUTOR TEST
- Before carrying out the dosing test, make sure there are no
foreign bodies inside the hopper and the doser.
- Based on the selected configuration (Fig. 31-32), implement
the relevant arrangements described in sections 3.4.4.1 and
3.4.4.2.
1) Add a small seed quantity (approx. 40 kg) inside the hopper.
2) Remove the bend under the injecting tube (A, Fig. 33), by
loosening the quick closing device.
3) Then attach the collecting tube supplied with the machine (B,
Fig. 33) in the same position and place a collecting container
at the other end of the tube (C, Fig. 33).
4) Calculate the gate opening value, with the help of the
"Distribution Table" (see pag. 61, 62 and 63), on the basis of
the type of seed to be used and the quantity to be distributed.
When using the electrical distribution system (standard on
the GIGANTE 900 model), perform the metering test according
to the instructions provided in the instruction manual supplied
with the system.
WARNING: Make sure the correct seeding roller is being used.
5) The Distribution Table is also affixed to the machine and from
this table it is always possible to calculate approximate of
product distribution quantities. It is, however, always necessary
to carry out a sowing test!
6) Loosen the fastening screw on the gear adjuster (Fig. 34)...
7) ... and bring the graded indicator to the required position
(depending on the quantity of product to be distributed), by
rotating the adjuster knob (Fig. 35).
8) Once the sowing test has been successfully performed,
secure the fastening screw of the gear adjuster once more.
For the actual metering test, fit the handle on the wheel and turn
it as shown in Fig. 36.
The revolutions of the handle correspond to a 1/10 of a hectare.
Next check, using precision scales, the quantity of product
collected and multiply this by 10 in order to obtain the quantity
distributed (in kg./ha). Make any necessary adjustments. Start up
the machine, performing the above mentioned steps in reverse
order.
