FEELER PIN
The feeler unit may also be easily disassembled in a single block in a matter of minutes for cleaning purposes. It consists of 5 single
hatches that are spring-loaded to ensure tight closing. The hatches do not touch the seeding wheel while it is in operation! Thanks
to the separators fixed between one hatch and the next, it is possible to activate each element independently of the others. Moreover,
the separators are shaped in such as way as to act as a shield against foreign bodies that could damage the dosing roller. The
hatches are adjustable, and their shape has been specifically designed to adapt to the seeds.
Always use gloves. The new parts especially might have sharp edges that could
injure the operator!
1) In order to disassemble the feeler unit, loosen the four nuts of the axles (front and
back) (Fig. 17), using a 13 mm spanner ...
2) until it is becomes possible to push out the discs fitted inside, remove them from
their seats (Fig. 18) and move the axles.
3) Remove the back part (Fig. 19) of the feeler pin unit, first, followed by the front part
(Fig. 20).
When the hatch is disassembled, it is also possible to remove the emptying hatch, by sliding it out from below.
On completion of cleaning, re-assemble the unit by following the above mentioned steps in reverse order, taking care to position the
flat parts of the axles correctly! Put the feeler pin unit in place. Then slide the washers back in their housing and finally tighten the nuts
by hand.
Once the hatch has been mounted, the elements must be mobile. To check that they are, simply push them with your fingers (Fig. 21).
If they do not move, it is advisable to disassemble them and clean them.
During re-assembly, before tightening the various parts, ensure that the rear part of
the hatch (on the spring side) is not too high. Install the dosing roller in order to ensure
that the height is correct.
