▪ Before you leave the vehicle cabin, ensure all automatic mechanisms are deactivated or manual
mode is activated.
▪ Before charging the tractor battery, always disconnect the tractor from the job computer.
▪ Keep children away from the implement and from the job computer.
Intended use
The job computer is only intended for use in the agricultural sector. The manufacturer is not liable for
any other installation or use of the job computer.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for any personal injury or property damage resulting from
such non-compliance. All risk arising from improper use lies with the user.
Intended use also includes compliance with the conditions for operation and repairs prescribed by the
manufacturer.
All applicable accident prevention regulations and all other generally recognized safety, industrial,
and medical standards as well as all road traffic laws must be observed. Any unauthorized
modifications made to the equipment will void the manufacturer's warranty.
Layout and meaning of warnings
All safety instructions found in these Operating Instructions are composed in accordance with the
following pattern:

NOTICE
This signal word identifies actions which could lead to operational malfunctions if performed
incorrectly.
These actions require that you operate in a precise and cautious manner in order to produce
optimum work results.
When it has reached the end of its service life, please dispose of this product as
electronic scrap in accordance with all applicable waste management laws.
Example
1.4
There are some actions that need to be performed in several steps. If there is a risk involved in
carrying out any of these steps, a safety warning will appear in the instructions themselves.
Safety instructions always directly precede the step involving risk and can be identified by their bold
font type and a signal word.
1. NOTICE! This is a notice. It warns that there is a risk involved in the next step.
2. Step involving risk.

About the on-board integrated display/controller
Functions of the on-board integrated display/controller
DRILL-Control is an on-board integrated display/controller.
A job computer is built into the on-board integrated display/controller, which can control the work of
seeders. When a job computer is mentioned within these instructions, it always refers to the DRILLControl on-board integrated display/controller.
Among other things, the on-board integrated display/controller can perform the following tasks:
▪ Monitoring of the metering shaft
▪ Control of the bout marker
▪ Control of the tramline valves
▪ Starting the calibration using the calibration button
▪ Control of the half width shutoff system
▪ Control of the pre-emergence marker
▪ Monitoring of the fan speed
