3.5 DETERMINATION OF THE ROW DISTANCE
The MONICA seed drill allows the distance between the sowing
rows to be changed to 40-50-70-75 cm.
Be very careful to carry out the entire operation by following
the instructions. All the operations described in this paragraph
must be carried out by expert personnel, equipped with
protective gloves, in a clean and dust-free environment. Before
starting up the equipment, check the area surrounding the
machine to ensure that there are no people, especially children
or pets, nearby, and ensure that you have excellent visibility.

USE AND MAINTENANCE
3.5.1 DETERMINATION OF THE ROW DISTANCE
The row spacing is set on the MONICA seed drill by changing the
position of the pins on the end stop bars A and B (Fig. 15):
A - end stop bar of the telescopic frame;
B - end stop bar of the seeding elements.
These operations should be carried out with the machine
closed. Setting the row spacing should always be carried out
by changing the pins of both end stop bars, A and B.
To set the row spacing, proceed as follows:
1) Operate the hydraulic system to close the telescopic frame.
2)
Position the pins in the holes of bars A and B for the row
spacing to be set (Fig. 15).
3) Operate the hydraulic system to open the elements up to the
stop, determined by the position of the pins.
4) To close and to reopen the elements of seed along the
chassis, in order to verify the correct order of the external
seeding elements.
Pages 48 and 49 contain diagrams that show the positions of
the pins for setting row spacings 45-50-70-75.
