Changing the singling disk

PREREQUISITES

  • Optimal bore diameter is known

  1. Secure tractor and machine.
  2. Open the catches 1.
WARNING
Risk of chemical burns due to dressing dust
Before working with hazardous materials, put on the protective clothing recommended by the manufacturer.
  1. Take off the cover 2.
  1. Release the catch until the points 1 and 2 are aligned.
  1. Take the singling disk 1 off of the drive hub.

  1. To select the singling disk:

    See Determining the seed settings.

The studs point toward the seed housing and agitate the seed for optimal population.

  1. Install the desired singling disk.
  2. Turn the catch beyond the notch 2.

Points 1 and 3 are no longer aligned.

  1. The singling disk must turn freely and the curved surface must not rub on the seed housing:

    Rotate the singling disk by hand.
  1. Press the ejector holder 3 together.
  2. Pull off the ejector wheel 2.

The number on the ejector wheel must be the same as the number on the singling disk 1. Deviating from the above, the singling disk for squash requires an ejector wheel for the singling disk with 42 bores.

  1. Install the desired ejector wheel.
NOTE
If the singling unit is converted to rapeseed, beet, or sorghum, perform steps 20 to 26.
  1. Clean the opto-sensor, Cleaning the opto-sensor.
  2. Clean the singling unit, Cleaning the singling unit.

For singling disks 1 with 0,04 in (1mm), 0,05 in (1,3mm), and 0,06 in (1,6mm), bores a narrow bore covering roller is required.

  1. Dismount nut 5.
  2. Remove the wide bore covering roller.

  3. Remove the bolt 3.

  4. Mount the journal bearing bush 4 from the wide bore covering roller into the narrow bore covering roller 2.
  5. Mount the narrow bore covering roller.
  6. Mount nuts.
  1. Align the guide pin 1.
  2. Close the cover 2.
  1. Close the catches 1.
NOTE
The power consumption of the singling drive is determined at idle with deactivated fan and without seed.
The power consumption for seeding of rapeseed, beet, or sorghum is between 0.9 A and 1.2 A.
The power consumption for seeding of coarse seed is between 0.6 A and 1 A.

  1. To adjust the distance of the singling disk to the singling unit housing:

    Check the disk adjustment, Checking the disk adjustment.
