Using Section Control

With Section Control, part-width sections can be switched automatically depending on the GPS position. To do this, the control terminal must be equipped with Section Control.

With mechanical spreading disc drive, Section Control controls a maximum of 16 part-width sections.

With hydraulic spreading disc drive, Section Control continuously controls the part-width sections.
