31) It is very important to remember that road holding capacity as well as direction and braking capacity can be influenced, sometimes considerably, by equipment being either carried or towed.

32) When taking a curve, calculate that the centrifugal force and the centre of gravity will shift depend-ing on whether equipment is being carried or not.

33) For transport, adjust and fasten the lateral lifting arm chains of the tractor; check that the seed and fertilizer hopper covers are closed properly; lock the hy-draulic lifting control lever; hook the seeders unit following the instructions referring on page 63.

34) Road movements must be per-formed with all tanks empty.

35) For displacements beyond the work area, the equipment must be placed in the transportation position. This also involves the necessity of disconnecting any hydraulic connection to the tractor.

36) Upon request the Manufacturer will supply supports and tables for signaling of dimensions. 37) When the dimensions of carried or partially-carried equipment conceal the tractor's signalling and lighting devices, these must also be installed on the equip-ment itself, in conformity with regulations of the highway code of the country involved. When in operation make sure that the lighting system is in perfect work-ing order.

Cardan shaft

38) The equipment installed can only be controlled by means of the Cardan shaft complete with the necessary overload safety devi-ces and guards fastened with the appropriate chain.

39) Only the Cardan shaft supplied by the Manufacturer must be used.

40) The engine must not be running when installing and removing the Cardan shaft.

41) Care must be taken regarding the safety and correct assembly of the Cardan shaft.

42) Use the chain provided to stop the Cardan shaft from rotating.

43) Always check carefully that the Cardan shaft guard is always in position, both during transporta-tion and operation.

44) Frequently and set intervals check the Cardan shaft guard, it must always be in excellent condition.

45) Before engaging the power take-off, check that the set rpm corresponds to that indicated by the sticker on the equipment.

46) Before inserting the power take-off, make sure that there are no people or animals nearby and that the rpm selected corre-sponds to that permitted. Never exceed the maximum admissible speed.

47) Watch out for the rotating univer-sal joint.

48) Do not insert the power take-off with the engine off or synchronized with the wheels.

49) Always disconnect the power take-off when the Cardan shaft is at too wide an angle (never more than 10° - Fig. 6) and when it is not being used.

50) Only clean and grease the Cardan shaft when the power take-off is disconnected, the engine is off, the hand brake pulled and the key removed.

51) When not in use, place the Cardan shaft on the support provided for it.

52) After having dismantled the Cardan shaft, place the protective cover on the power take-off shaft again.

Safety measures concerning the hydraulics

53) At the moment of connecting the hydraulic tubes to the hydraulic system of the tractor, make sure that the hydraulic systems of the operating machine and the tractor are not under pressure.

54) For the operative hydraulic connections between tractor and operating machine, the sockets and plugs should be marked with colours to distinguish them, to avoid them being used wrongly. There would be a danger of accident if the connections were to be swapped round.

55) The hydraulic system is under high pressure; because of the accident risk, when searching for leakage points special auxiliary instruments should be used.

56) Not to never carry out the search losses with the fingers or the hands. The liquids that exit from the holes can be nearly not visible.

57) During transport by road the hydraulic connections between tractor and operating machine should be disconnected and secured to the support provided.

58) Do not use vegetable oils under any circumstance. These could cause a risk of damage to the cylinder gaskets.

59) The operating pressures of the hydraulic system should be between 100 bars and 180 bars.

60) Never exceed the indicated hydraulic system pressure levels.

61) Check that the quick hook-ups are coupled correctly; parts of the system could get damaged if they are not.

62) Oil escaping at high pressure can cause skin injury with the risk of serious wounds and infection. Call a doctor immediately if such an incident occurs. If the oil with surgical means is not removed quickly, can take place serious allergies and/or infections. Therefore, the installation of hydraulic components in the tractor driver's cab is strictly forbidden. All the components of the system should be positioned carefully to avoid parts being damage during use of the equipment.

63) In case of participation on the hydraulic system, to unload the hydraulic pressure carrying all the hydraulic commandos in all the positions some times after to have extinguished the motor.

Maintenance in safety Durante le operazioni di lavoro e manutenzione, utilizzare gli idonei dispositivi di protezione individuale (es.):

Overalls Gloves Shoes Goggles Helmets

64) Do not proceed with maintenance and cleaning if the power take-off has not been disconnected first, the engine power off, the hand brake pulled and the tractor blocked with a wooden block or stone of the right size under the wheels.

65) Periodically check that the bolts and nuts are tight, and if necessary tighten them again. For this it would be advisable to use a torque wrench, respecting the values of 53 Nm for M10 bolts, resistance class 8.8, and 150 Nm for M14 bolts resistance class 8.8 (Table.1)

66) During assembling, maintenance, cleaning, fitting, etc., with the seeding machine raised, place adequate supports under the equipment as a precaution.

67) The spare parts must correspond to the manufacturer's specifica-tions. Use only original spares.

3.0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

To obtain the best performance from the equipment, carefully follow what is set up below.

ATTENTION All maintenance work, adjustments and preparation for operation, must be carried out with the power take-off of the tractor disconnected, the seeder on the ground on its supporting feet, the tractor not running, the wheels blocked and the key turned off.

3.1 ATTACHMENT THE TRACTOR

The seeder may be attached to any tractor fitted out with a three-point universal joint.

DANGER The attachment to the tractor is a very dangerous phase. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully throughout the operation.

3.1.1 HOOKING

The correct tractor/seeder position, is determined by placing the equipment at a distance from the tractor so that the Cardan joint remains extended by 5-10 cm from its maximum closing position. At this point, proceed as follows:

1) Hook the lifter bars onto the pins provided (1, Fig. 7) Block

with the snap split pins. Hook the chains to the lifting bars

2) Connect the third upper point (2, Fig. 8); the pin will be blocked

with the appropriate split pin; use the adjusting tierod (3, Fig.

8) to keep the seeder perpendicular to the ground (Fig. 8)

3) Block the movement of the parallels of the tractor on the

horizontal plane using the stabilizers provided, so eliminating the side swaying of the equipment. Check that the tractor hoisting arms are positioned at the same height from the ground.

4) Adjust the height of the tractor lifting arms:

a) In the work position, adjust the path of the tractor hoisting

arms to guarantee adequate downward movement of the planting unit. Otherwise, when hollows are encountered in the seedbed, seed distribution could be irregular due to the seed planting unit transmission wheels slipping (planing effect).

b) in the transporting position, adjust the arms so that the

seeder does not, for any reason whatsoever, come into contact with the ground.

5) The hydraulic pipes must be connected correctly to the tractor

distributors following the instructions on each pipe (Fig. 9).

6) Connect the Cardan shaft and make sure that it is perfectly

blocked on the power take-off (Fig. 10). Check that the guard turns freely and fix it with the chain provided.

During the work, regularly check that the equipment is perpendicular.

ATTENTION: Always follow the indications recommended by the Manufacturer for the transport of the seeder.

3.3 STABILITY OF PLANTING UNIT AND TRACTOR DURING TRANSPORT

When a planting unit is coupled to a tractor, so becoming an integral part of it for the purposes of road travel, the stability of the planting unit-tractor complex may change and cause driving or operating difficulties (rearing up or side-slipping of the tractor). The condition of equilibrium can be restored by placing a sufficient number of ballasts on the front of the tractor so that the weights on the two tractor axles are distributed sufficiently evenly. To work in safety the instructions given in the highway code should be followed; these prescribe that at least 20% of the weight of the tractor alone should be borne by the front axle and that the weight on the arms of the hoist should not be more than 30% of the weight of the tractor itself. These factors are summarized in the following formulas:

Z > [M x (s1+s2)]-(0.2 x T x i)

(d+i) The symbols have the following meanings (please see Fig. 12 for reference): M (Kg) Mass weighing on arms off hoist with full load (weight +

mass, see cap. 1.4 Identification).

T (Kg) Mass of tractor. Z (Kg) Total mass of ballast. i (m) Tractor wheelbase, that is, the horizontal distance

between the tractor axles.

d (m) Horizontal distance between the centre of gravity of the

ballast and the front axle of the tractor.

s1 (m) Horizontal distance between the inferior point of

attachment of the equipment and the posterior axle of the tractor (equipment supported to the ground).

s2 (m) Horizontal distance between the barycentre of the

equipment and the inferior point of attachment of the equipment (equipment supported to the ground).

The amount of ballast that should be applied according to the formula is the minimum required for circulation on the road. If for reasons of tractor performance or to improve the set-up of the planting unit during operation it is thought necessary to raise these values, please refer to the registration document of the tractor to check its limits. When the formula for calculating the ballast gives a negative result it will not be necessary to add any weight. In any case, as long as the limits of the tractor are respected, a suitable quantity of weights may be applied in order to ensure greater stability during travel. Check that the tractor tyres are suitable for the load.

3.1.2 UNHOOKING THE SEED DRILL FROM THE TRACTOR

DANGER Unhooking the seed drill from the tractor is a very dangerous operation. Great caution must be used and the whole operation must be carried out following the instructions.

For a correct unhooking operation of the seed drill it is necessary to proceed on a horizontal level.

1) Lower the supporting base elements

2) Slowly lower the seed drill until it rests completely on the

ground.

3) Disconnect the hydraulic pipes from the tractor distributors

and protect the quick couplings with the caps.

4) Sganciare l’albero cardanico dalla trattrice, ed appoggiarlo al

gancio predisposto.

5) Loosen and unhook the third point, following the first and

second.

3.2 ADAPTING THE CARDAN SHAFT

The Cardan shaft, supplied with the machine, is of standard length. It might, therefore, be necessary to adapt the cardan shaft. Should this be the case, before proceeding, consult the Manufacturer.

CAUTION

- When the Cardan shaft is with drawn to the end of its stroke,

the two pipes should ovelap by at least 15 cm (A Fig. 11). When it is inserted all the way, the minimum admissible play is 4 cm (B Fig. 11).

- When using the equipment on another tractor, check that

conditions are as stated above and check that the guards complete ly cover the rotating parts of the Cardan shaft.

ATTENTION For transportation of the seeder, always follow the Manufacturer's instructions.

ENGLISH

cod. G19502563

3.4 TELESCOPIC FRAME

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.

Regular operation depends on the correct use and adequate maintenance of the equipment. It is advisable therefore to observe scrupulously what is described in order to prevent any inconveniences that could prejudicate proper operation and duration. It is just as important to keep to what is described in this booklet since the Manufacturer declines all responsibility

due to negligence and non-observance of these rules.

At any rate the Manufacturer is available to assure immediate and accurate technical assistance and all that may be necessary for the improved operation and better performance of the equipment. Check that the quick hook-ups are coupled correctly; parts of the system could get damaged if they are not.

ATTENTION

Oil escaping at high pressure can cause skin injury with the risk of serious wounds and infection. Call a doctor immediately if such an incident occurs. Therefore, the installation of hydraulic components in the tractor driver's cab is strictly forbidden. All the components of the system should be positioned carefully to avoid parts being damage during use of the equipment.

3.4.1 DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONING

The frame of the machine allows the tubular beams, on which the side seeding elements are carried, to be slid lengthways (Fig. 13). The cylinders, operated by a hydraulic system, have the function of opening and closing the frame. In this way it is possible to choose the width of opening of the whole frame in relation to the number of seeding elements present (Fig. 13) and to the sowing line spacing required, and it is also possible to close the machine in such a way that its overall dimensions are reduced sufficiently for road travel.

DANGER Stay well away from the machine while the telescopic frame is opening or closing.

USE INSTRUCTION

In order to use correctly the toolbar of the planter, operate as follows:

1) Verify the proper working of the hydraulic system of the planter,

only with the machine lifted up from the ground or lowered on its own wheels and props, but with the seeding units on uplifted position. Also in the field, make sure the planter is lifted up before opening or closing the telescopic toolbar.

2) Lubricate daily all sliding parts (tollbar sections, gears

shafting, etc...) and in any case after washing the planter.

3) Before operating the row marker device, which is mounted

on the toolbar, remember to unhook the two row marker arms and, for your safety, to hook them before transporting. the planter on the road.

3.5 DETERMINATION OF THE ROW DISTANCE

The MONICA seed drill allows the distance between the sowing rows to be changed to 40-50-60-70-75 cm.

CAUTION 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.

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. 14): A - end stop bar of the telescopic frame; B - end stop bar of the seeding elements.

ATTENTION 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. 14).

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 53 and 54 contain diagrams that show the positions of the pins for setting row spacings 45-50-60-70-75.

3.6 SEED SELECTION

3.6.1 SEED DISTRIBUTOR

A plate (1 Fig. 16), chosen according to the size of the seed, is installed inside the distributors (Fig. 16) (the seed should not be able to enter the hole). Should suction cause some seeds to clog the holes of the plate, these will be left on the ground. The seeder is delivered to the customer with a single set of plates already installed on the distributors. The Manufacturer can supply the client with further sets of plates. (see table 4, page 59).

REPLACEMENT OF SEED DISC AND ADJUSTMENTS

CAUTION All operations described in this paragraph must be carried out by expert personnel, equipped with protective gloves, in a clean and dust-free environment.

- The seeder must be clean and dry and stably positioned.

- If the power take-off is hooked to the tractor it must be

disconnected, the engine turned off, the key removed and the hand brake pulled.

- Only clean parts in good condition must be installed.

- The plate must be assembled with the pegs (2 Fig. 16) pointing

towards the inside of the distributor.

- If some of the pegs are bent or missing from the plate, this

means that foreign bodies have entered the distributor, in which case the plate must be replaced.

- If there are circular scratches, they must not exceed 1/3 of

the plate thickness.

- Hand-tighten only the winged nut that closes the cover (Fig. 17). N.B. When replacing worn plates, the cover gasket should also be replaced.

These are the operations to be carried out:

1) Unscrew and remove the wing nut (Fig. 17);

2) Open the distributor cover;

3) Insert or replace the disc;

4) If necessary, adjust the seed-spill prevention plate as

described further on;

5) Adjust the selector, as described further on;

6) Close the cover and screw the wing nut back on (Fig. 17).

7) Adjust the selector as described further on

REPLACING THE COVER SEAL Check the whole of the seed distributor cover seal surface regularly (A Fig. 18) for signs of wear.

The seal must be replaced before the surface «A» (Fig. 18), being worn down by the disc movement, reaches surface «B». Also check that no grooves have been made by the disk along surface «A».

EXPELLER SEEDS

Use the light grey coloured seed expeller (C, Fig. 19) for small size seeds with an average diameter less than 3.5 mm (e.g. pelleted sugar beet seed). Use the black coloured seed expeller (D, Fig. 19) for medium size seeds with an average diameter from 3.5 to 7 mm (e.g. corn). Remove the seed expellers when using seed with an average diameter greater than 7 mm. Loosen the screws (1, Fig. 19) and remove the expeller (2).

Assembly: Position the expeller (2) as shown in Figure 19. keeping the expeller pressed against the edge, obtained in the relative seat ( 3, Fig. 19), block it by the screw (1) kit. The screw is to be mounted only as shown in the picture. Do not interpose any thikness between the expeller and its seat. Make sure the expeller is flat against the seed disk but that it does not come in contact with the disk. Replace the expeller when worn.

SELECTOR ADJUSTMENT

When the indicator (1 Fig. 20) is moved, it commands a cursor (2 Fig. 20), which slightly touches the plate near the holes, causing the excess seeds to fall. The selector is adjusted at each seed and plate change, towards the lower numbers for small seeds (Fig. 20) and viceversa for big seeds (Fig. 21).

IMPORTANT: The selector does not adjust the air flow in the distributor.

ANTI-OVERFLOW PLATE ADJUSTMENT

The anti-overflow plate (1 Fig. 22) can be adjusted to 3 positions and defines the width of the seed inlet gap (2 Fig. 22), so that these cannot flow out of the distributor due to excessive feeding. Adjustment is particularly needed when the ground slopes steeply or when working with small seeds. In this case, it might be necessary to replace the standard plate with a special one to be used exclusively with small seeds.

Spare part order code: 22270133.

3.6.2 VACUUM PUMP

The aspirator (Fig. 23) creates a vacuum inside the distributors, so that the seeds are aspirated onto the holes in the plate. The tensioning and good condition of the belt are therefore of vital importance to ensure the good for the good operation of the aspirator and, hence, the success of the sowing. The belt is correctly tensioned when it

does not yield under the pressure of a hand.

WARNING Make sure that the universal joint is disconnected from the power take-off before carrying out the following operations: Belt checking procedure:

- Remove the protective housing

- Loosen the 4 screws (1, Fig. 23).

- Loosen the nut (2, Fig. 23).

- If worn, replace the belt (4, Fig. 23).

- Tension the belt by tightening the screws (3, Fig. 23).

- Tighten the bolts loosened before and close the casing.

Vacuometer

The vacuometer (5, Fig. 23) a the vacuum measuring device. The one supplied shows aspiration values ranging from -0 to -100 mbar. The average approximate aspiration values for large seeds are: 60 to -70 mbar for small seeds: -40 to -50 mbar.

Comply with the number of rpm recommended for the power take-off. When necessary, remove the glass of the vacuometer

to carry out a cleaning operation with a gentle jet of air or a cloth. If it is necessary to reset the indicator of the vacuum gauge, remove the glass cover and use a screwdriver to take out the screw as shown in Figure 24.

cod. G19502563

DISTRIBUTION ADJUSTMENT

Distribution adjustment must be done in compliance with:

- the kind of seed that has to be distributed;

- the longitudinal distance between one seed and another.

Kind of seed to be distributed: Identify the diameter of the holes of the seed disk in Table 4, according to the type of seed to distribute. For special requirements make a specific order.

The values shown on the table are approximate. The definite choice of seed plates is completely up to the user. Complaints for imprecise sowing due to utilization of improper seed plates will not be accepted.

Longitudinal distance between one seed and another:

The longitudinal seeding distance is determined by the number of holes on the seed plate, by the number of teeth and position of the gears on the wheel which transmits the motion to the gearbox, and by how the gears are combined in the gearbox. The seed spacings shown in the table are only indicative values since they are affected by different working conditions; we therefore advise you to check the actual spacing of the seeds in practice.

The Manufacture will not be held liable for any inconsistencies between the values of the table and the actual values found.

On the cover of the gearbox there is a table for adjusting the seeding distance and a table that shows the drive fitted on the gear drive wheel.

1) From the Seed Investment Table: Depending on both the row distance of the planter and the selected seed investment per hectare, calculate the longitudinal seed planting distance by using Table 3 (Seed Investment Table).

Example:

- Seeding row distance 75 cm;

- number of seeds to be distributed per hectare: 72.000. According to the "Seed investment Table", the longitudinal distance between one seed and another is 18,50 cm.

For row distances differing from those listed in the table, apply the following directions:

Example:

- Ha = 10000 m2;

- Row distance = 0,90 m;

- No. of seeds to be distributed for hectare = 70.000

2) About the Seed Planter: Verifiy which couple of pinions (Wheel) is to be found (C-D ill. no.

3) From the Table of Longitudinal Seed Planting Distances (Table

5):

- Look for the table that lists the couple of pinions equal to the seed planter's one;

- Seek the value of the longitudinal seed planting distance previously calculated. Should there be two or more types of

disks that assure the same longitudinal seed planting distance, prefer the disk with the largest number of holes.

- Move along to the left to see which ratio (A-B Fig. 22) you have to set the gearbox with;

4) About the Seed Planter:

- Set the gearbox with the identified ratio (A-B);

- If the seed planting distance is not obtained with the pinions (wheel C-D) fitted on the planting unit (Fig. 26), check with the table to see if they need to be replaced or have their positions reversed.

To move the chain, open the cover and loosen the chain (1) by means of the lever. (2 Fig. 26); Put the chain on the gears selected and align them. Tension the chain again by means of the lever (2 Fig. 26) and close the cover.

- The gearbox transmission must be checked every time the longitudinal seed planting distance is changed (see following

section).

3.16.4 CHECKING THE GEARBOX TRANSMISSION

To check the correct coupling between the gears inside the gearbox, proceed as follows:

- lift the machine off the ground, switch off the tractor engine, remove the ignition key and engage the parking brake;

- with one hand, turn the transmission wheel in the direction of travel (Fig. 27);

- at the same time, with your other hand, grip the drive axle coming out of the gearbox (F, Fig. 27) to exert a slight resistance to the movement; make sure the axle is rotating together with the transmission wheel;

- if the axle (F) does not turn in these conditions, the gearbox is not set correctly; move levers A and B to engage the combination chosen with the seed chart and repeat the check.

3.7 DEPOSITION OF THE SEED

3.7.1 PLANTING UNIT

In order to ensure that the seeds are all planted at a uniform depth, a few simple adjustments should be made to the planting unit. Adjust the seeding depth by changing the height of the side wheels (1 Fig. 28) using the crank (2 Fig. 28). A numbered scale (3 Fig.

28) enables all of the parts to be adjusted to the same degree.

N.B.: the pointer of the adjustment scale is purely progressive; it does not show a variation in cm on the height of the side wheels.

3.7.2 REAR COVERING WHEELS

The rear set-up of the seeding elements is of considerable importance in quality sowing. These elements are crucial to the covering of the seeds after they have been sown. They should therefore be suitably adjusted according to the type of seed and type of ground:

- change the position of the rear wheels on their support as shown in the diagram in Figure 29;

- using the handle (4 Fig. 28), adjust the pressure of the rear inclined wheels for closing and packing the seed furrow.

3.7.3 FRONT CLOD CLEARER

The action of the front clod clearer is crucial to correct and homogeneous sowing; it allows the track of the element's depth wheels (1, Fig. 28) to be cleared of the largest clods (A, Fig. 30) that could cause irregular planting depth.

IMPORTANT!

- Use the front clod clearer only where there are large clods.

- The use of the clod clearer must not create dips in the

seedbed.

- Not suitable for sowing on stony ground.

ADJUSTMENT

- Identify a particularly cloddy area of the ground to be sown.

- Put the seed drill in its average working conditions with seed

and fertilizer hoppers half full.

- Set the planting depth (see chapter 3.7.1) according to the

agronomic choices dictated by the seed to be distributed.

- Fully raise all the front clod clearers.

- With the tractor's power take-off disconnected and the seed

drill on the ground in its working position, move over the cloddy area for 4 to 5 metres.

- On the outer element only, lower the front clod clearer to 3 to 4

cm from the level created by the depth wheels of the seeding element (Fig. 30), and the front earth-opening blade to approx. 2 to 3 cm from the wing of the clod clearer.

- Move for a short stretch with the seed drill and check the

behaviour of the clod clearer and the whole seeding element.

- If the ground is compact, facilitate the penetration of the

element's furrow opener discs by giving greater depth to the front earth-opening blade of the clod clearer (Fig. 31).

- Once the best position of the clod clearer has been determined,

set the other seeding elements to this position, using as reference the notches marked on the individual elements of the clod clearer.

Changing from one type of ground to another entails adjustment of the clod clearer's position.

3.7.4 PLANTING UNIT EXCLUSION

Switch off the tractor and remove the ignition key. Raise the single seeder from the ground as follows:

- Turn the winged nut (1 Fig. 32) of the hooking lever anticlockwise.

- Lift the planting unit using the lever (2, Fig. 33).

- Press and hold down the sleeve (1 Fig. 34) in the direction indicated by the arrow, push forward while turning the ring nut (2 Fig. 34) until the iron pin comes free.

- Pull the sleeve back as far as it will go (1 Fig. 34).

- To render the drive operative again, push the sleeve forward and lock the ring nut again against the iron pin.

IMPORTANT! Pay the greatest attention to the couplings of the cardan shafts (A, Fig. 34) and follow the position of the crosses.

3.7.5 PLANTING UNIT TRANSMISSION

Each case is equipped with a safety pin which breaks (1 Fig. 35) when the rotating of the seeder plate is forced or jams as a result of foreign bodies entering the distributor (paper, string etc.) Should this occur, pour the seeds out of the container, check and clean the distributor, check the plate pegs and replace the safety pin. Each transmission shaft has a torque limiter with a sound alarm (3 Fig. 35) that, when the pin breaks (1 Fig. 35), signals the anomaly or breakdown that has occurred in the distributor. If this happens, stop at once and remedy the situation; remove the broken pin and replace it (use the pin punch supplied).

IMPORTANT! Do not use metal pins. Always use original spare parts.

WARNING! Do not over-tighten the screws holding the case (2

Fig. 35). It should be able to oscillate.

3.8 ROW MARKER

The row marker is a machine that traces a reference line parallel to the tracks of the tractor on the ground. Once the tractor has completed its run and it has turned around, follow the reference row with one of the front wheels (L1, Fig. 36) or with the centre of the tractor (L2, Fig. 36) according to the row marker employed,

where:

L = the distance between the outer most unit and the row marker; D= the distance between the rows; N= the number of units operating; C= the tractorís front wheelbase.

Each time it passes, the seeder will mark a reference line on the side opposite to the previous passage. Row-marker arm inversion is activated by the tractor's hydraulic distributor control. The hydraulic row marker device has a valve that alternately operates the two arms, so that just one hydraulic tractor distributor is present. When the system is not in use protect the quick couplings with the hoods provided and house the hydraulic pipes in the support provided for the purpose.

System regulation

The hydraulic systems provided come equipped with one-way flow regulators (Fig. 37) which allow for the regulation of the quantity of oil during opening or closing, depending on how the regulators have been installed.

1) Regulator for closing the row marker;

2) Regulator for opening the row marker.

- Flow from A to B, free;

- Flow from B to A, choked (regulated).

Calibration of the flow regulators:

- Slacken the lock nut (C Fig. 37).

- Fully close the oil flow (CLOSED).

- Using the hydraulic distributor of the tractor, operate the system and open the oil flow by turning the knob (D Fig. 37).

- When finished making the adjustment, tighten the lock nut again.

- Carry out the calibration on all four regulators.

WARNING Make sure that the result of this adjustment does not cause the rising or descent speed to damage the structure itself.

For normal soils the correct working position of the disc is that shown in Fig. 38 ref. A; for strong soils turn it over as shown in ref. B Fig. 38.

WARNING During travel by road, lock the row marker arms in a vertical position with the safety bolts (C Fig. 41) and turn the discs to come within the machine's overall dimensions (D Fig. 41) locking them with the bolts supplied. Before travelling on the road, with row marker arm for track at the tractor centre, rotate the upper arm (E) as shown in figure

41.

3.8.2 ROW MARKER DISK ADJUSTMENT

Row marker with trace on the tractor wheel (L1)

Using the Table 6 shown, read the distance (L1 Fig. 36) at which the disc is to draw the reference line. Regulate the disc at the correct distance, tilt it slightly and firmly tighten the nuts (Fig. 39).

For distances not covered by the table, use the following rule:

L= D (N +1) - C

Row marker with trace in the centre of the tractor (L2)

Using the Table 6 shown, read the distance (L2 Fig. 39) at which the disc is to draw the reference line. Regulate the disc at the correct distance, tilt it slightly and firmly tighten the nuts (Fig. 40).

For distances not covered by the table, use the following rule:

L= D (N +1)

The row marker arms have a safety bolt (A Fig. 40) so that the planter unit structure will not be damaged. If they happen to bump into an obstacle, this bolt will break and so the row marker arm will rotate to leave the equipment structure intact. There are spare bolts on the row marker arm support (B Fig. 40).

3.9 DISTRIBUTION OF CHEMICAL PRODUCTS

Fertilizers and insecticides are distributed by means of special dosers (A, Fig. 42-43) fitted under the corresponding hoppers. The hoppers are equipped with a device called the SPEEDY SET (B, Fig. 42-43), through which centralized adjustment of the MINIMAX volumetric dosing devices can be carried out for each single hopper. Periodically check that the sliding hatches are aligned. Depending on how the dosers are regulated please refer to the tables below you can determine the quantity of fertilizer and insecticide needed to cover a hectare of land.

HOPPER AND TANK FILLING

Hoppers and tanks can be filled by hand or using a lifter with a capacity of at least 200 kg, which must be regularly approved by the relative authorities. Remember that weights of more than 25 kg must either be lifted by more than one operator or the abovementioned lifter must be used following the instructions included in the relative use and maintenance manual.

WARNING

- All fertilizer spreader tank loading and unloading operations must be carried out with the planting unit at a standstill, on the ground, with the frame open, with the hand brake on, with the motor switched off and the starter key removed from the control panel. Make sure that chemicals are kept out of harm's way.

- All operations must be carried out by trained staff wearing suitable protection (overalls, gloves, boots, masks etc) in a clean, dust-free environment.

- 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.

- 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.

The plastic distributors do not require lubrication. On completion of the work, the hopper should be carefully cleaned. This particularly applies to the fertilizer hoppers (Fig. 44).

Adhere to the ecological standards applicable for the disposal of polluting liquids.

3.9.1REGULATING THE FERTILIZER INTERRING HOE

The fertilizer interring hoes operate parallel to the row being sown, at a standard distance.

Before utilizing the seeder, ensure that this distance is suitable for the type of fertilizer to be distributed and the quantity to be distributed per hectare, so as to ensure that the crops will not be damaged.

Should the distance not be suitable, distance the hoes further from the row being sown. Also regulate the depth at which the fertilizer is interred, by changing the height of the spring (Fig. 45). After completing this operation, cut any extra off the length of the tube so as to prevent the creation of folds which could obstruct the flow of the fertilizer (Fig. 45).

3.9.2 TABLE OF DISTRIBUTION QUANTITY (kg/Ha)

CAUTION: the MINIMAX batcher, adjusted to the first positions

(B0÷C0 or 1÷1.5 with SPEEDY SET) may become clogged because of the small opening, especially if fertilizers with irregular grain size are used. If the quantity of fertilizer to be delivered comes within the first positions (darkened lines on the table) get in touch with the manufacturer. The figures given in the table are approximate as the specific weight and size of the grains often vary. In any case, always refer to the specific weight shown on the product packaging; if this is not given, get in touch with the manufacturer.

IMPORTANT: on the distribution table, according to the row spacing, check which pair of pinions are present on the seed drill (A-B Fig. 47).

To change the pair of pinions, work as follows:

- Open the cover of the box and slacken the chain (1 Fig. 47).

- Put the chain on the required gears and align them.

- Tighten the chain again and close the cover.

4.6 DURING SEEDING

- After having performed all the operations above, the seed drill is ready to work. However, it is recommended to do trial planting for a few metres to check that seed deposition is taking place as desired, namely check that the amount of seeds per linear meter corresponds to that intended. Example: if the longitudinal planting distance set is «d = 16 cm», this means that in 160 cm (L) there must be 11 seeds (10 spaces) as shown in the figure below.

L = d x 10

12 34 56 78 91011

- During the planting process, check the distribution of the seeds often. If this is not accurate, check the selector and the transmission ratios.

- At the end of each run, during the direction change manoeuvre, the vacuum pump must always stay on to keep the seeds attached to the distributor discs.

- 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.

- During seed drilling, periodically check the pressure of the tyres in accordance with the values shown in the “TECHNICAL DATA” table. Flat tyres cause irregular seed planting.

CAUTION

- 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 damage 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.

DANGER The seeding machine can transport chemical substances. Do not allow children, people, pets to come near the seeding machine.

WARNING 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.

5.0 MAINTENANCE

Here follows a list of various maintenance operations to be carried out periodically. Lowered operating costs and a longer lasting seeding machine depend, among others, on the methodical and constant observation of mese rules.

The maintenance periods listed in this booklet are only indicative and are for on normal conditions on use, therefore be varied depending the kind of service, the more or less dusty surroundings, seasonal factors, etc. For more serious conditions of service, maintenance will logically be done more often.

All operations must be carried out by expert personnel, equipped with protective gloves, in a clean and dust-free environment.

All maintenance operations must be carried out with the machine hooked up to the tractor, the parking brake engaged, the engine off, the ignition key removed and the equipment sitting on suitable supports on the ground.

ATTENTION

USING OILS AND GREASES

- Before injecting grease, the nipples must be cleaned to avoid mud, dustand foreign bodies from mixing with the grease, otherwise they will reduce or even annul the effect of the lubrication.

- Always keep oils and grease out of reach of children.

- Always read warnings and precautions indicated on the containers carefully.

- Avoid skin-contact.

- After use wash the equipment thoroughly.

- Treat the used oils and polluting liquids in conformity with the laws in force.

RECOMMENDED LUBRICANTS

- For lubrication in general, we advise: OIL SAE 80W/90.

- For all greasing points we advise: AGIP GR MU EP 2 GREASE or equivalent (specifications: DIN 51825 (KP2K)).

CLEANING

- The products used for cleaning must be disposed of according to the laws in force.

- Clean and maintain the machine after putting any removed guards back in position. Replace them with new ones, if they are damaged.

- Clean the electrical components only with a dry cloth.

USING PRESSURISED CLEANING SYSTEMS (Air/Water)

- Always keep in mind the rules that regulate use of these systems.

- Do not pressure clean electrical components.

- Do not pressure clean chromium-plated components.

- Do not place the nozzle in contact with the parts of the equipment, especially the bearings. Keep it at a min. distance of 30 cm from the surface to be cleaned.

- Thoroughly lubricate the equipment, especially after cleaning it with pressurised systems.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS

- Hydraulic systems must be maintained exclusively by skilled operators.

- The hydraulic system is under high pressure; because of the accident risk, when searching for leakage points special auxiliary instruments should be used.

- In case of participation on the hydraulic system, to unload the hydraulic pressure carrying all the hydraulic commandos in all the positions some times after to have extinguished the motor.

- Oil escaping at high pressure can cause skin injury with the risk of serious wounds and infection. Call a doctor immediately if such an incident occurs. If the oil with surgical means is not removed quickly, can take place serious allergies and/or infections. Therefore, the installation of hydraulic components in the tractor driver’s cab is strictly forbidden.

All the components of the system should be positioned carefully to avoid parts being damage during use of the equipment.

- At least once a year have the hydraulic pipes checked for wear by an expert.

- Replace the hydraulic pipes if they are damaged or worn by aging.

- Replace the hydraulic pipes every 5 years even if they have not been used (natural aging). Figure 52 (R) shows hydraulic pipes bearing the year of manufacture as an example.

After the first 10 hours of operation and then after every 50 hours, check that:

- all the elements of the hydraulic system are water-tight;

- all the joints are tight;

Before starting the machine up, check that:

- the hydraulic pipes are connected correctly;

- the pipes are positioned correctly, and they are free to move during standard manoeuvres;

- any damaged or worn part is replaced, if necessary.

Replace the hydraulic pipes in the following cases:

- when external damage is identified such as cutting, tearing and wear due to friction, etc.;

- when they are deteriorated on the outer surface;

- when they are deformed beyond their natural shape due to crushing, formation of bubbles, etc.;

- when leaks are identified near the pipe sheath (S, Fig. 52);

- when the sheath is corroded (S, Fig. 52);

- 5 years after their manufacture (R, Fig. 52).
