Changing the rotor

Depending on the desired forward speed and application rate, the single rotor, double rotor or the strip placement unit is required.

Conversion to strip placement is necessary

  1. Disconnect the energy supply from the metering unit housing 1.

  2. Remove the cotter pin 2.

  1. Remove the air separator 2.

  2. Loosen the knurled nut 1.

  1. Open the cover 1 of the metering unit housing.

  2. When FertiSpot has to be converted to band placement:

    Converting FertiSpot to strip placement.

or

When the FertiSpot rotor needs to be changed:

Carry out steps 7 to 10.

  1. Remove the nut 3.
  2. Clean the cover and metering unit housing with a soft brush.
NOTE

Pay attention to the rotor direction of rotation.

  1. Install the desired rotor.
  2. Put on the nut.
NOTE
The motor control saves the calibration factor for the turning angle sensor on the fertiliser coulter. The depot placement covers may not be exchanged among the rows.
  1. Close the cover of the metering unit housing.
  2. Install the knurled nut.
  3. Install the air separator.
  4. Install the cotter pin.

  5. Mount the energy supply on the metering unit housing.
NOTE
If the depot placement covers are not installed in the same position after changing the rotor, the depth detection must be recalibrated.

  1. Lift the machine.

  2. Set the placement depth on all coupled fertiliser coulters to position 6.
  3. In the Settings menu, select Info > Diagnosis > Rows.
  4. Press .
