Fertiliser hopper and seed hopper

On machines with fertiliser equipment, the fertiliser metering units 5 are installed under the hopper chambers 1 and 2. The emitting unit 4 of the Central Seed Supply system is installed under the hopper chamber 3.

Depending on the equipment, an electric scale can be installed on the fertiliser hopper.

On machines without fertiliser equipment, the emitting units 2 of the Central Seed Supply system are installed under the hopper chambers 1.

Depending on the equipment, an electric scale can be installed on the seed hopper.

The filling procedure can be observed from the ladder 1 and the loading board 2.

The charging sieves 1 hold foreign objects back and can be used as a shelf when filling the hopper chambers with sacks. When the hopper covers are closed, it is possible to carry sacks with a maximum weight of 20kg on the charging sieves.

The hopper covers seal the hopper chambers pressure-tight. When the fan is switched on, pressure builds up in the conveyor section, the seed hopper and the fertiliser hopper.

Each hopper chamber is equipped with a fill level sensor 1 for monitoring the fill level. When the spreading material no longer covers the fill level sensor, the control terminal displays a warning message and issues an alarm signal. The fill level sensor can be attached in the upper 2 or lower position 3, depending on the spreading material.

The hopper interior lighting is switched on along with the tractor's driving lights.
