Wheel Scraper; Transplant Distance; Drive Wheels; Tractor Gauge - Checchi & Magli UNITRIUM Bedienungsanleitung

24.0 - WHEEL SCRAPER

It is possible to adjust the height from the ground by operating the screws (fi g. 16.A) and turning the
support (fi g. 16.B).
It is possible to adjust the distance from wheels by operating the screws(fi g. 16.C).

25.0 - TRANSPLANT DISTANCE

INTER-ROW: min. 50 cm for the single frame version (fi g. 17)
DISTANCE BETWEEN DOUBLE ROWS: min. 25 cm for the DT double frame (fi g. 18)
Inter-row spacing must be adjusted with the machine coupled to the tractor and with the lift unit lowe-
red.
Loosen the screws (fi g. 19 A) and place the unit at the desired distance by sliding it on the frame. Do not
carry out these operations by hammering with metal objects as this could cause serious damage to the
components.
25.1 - INTER-ROW SPACING
The diagrams (fi g. 20) indicate the distances that can be obtained with the ratios available for the 10-
bucket model (fi g. 20 A) and the 6/12-bucket model (fi g. 20 B). Each transplanting unit is equipped with a
transmission with relative rapid gear-shifting (fi g. 21 A).
26.0 - DRIVE WHEELS (fi g. 22.B)
During operation, the drive wheel must always be in contact with the ground in order to operate the trans-
planting unit. By acting on the adjusting screw (fi g. 21 C) it is possible to increase or reduce pressure and
to adjust the range.

27.0 - TRACTOR GAUGE

The imprint left on the ground by the wheels of the tractor, as well as having a compacting effect, also
usually lowers the surface of the ground. Keep a transplanting distance of not less than 10-12 cm
from the imprint (fi g. 22) by adjusting the inter-row spacing or the gauge of the tractor.

28.0 - ACCESSORIES

28.1 - ROW MARKERS: fi t as shown in (fi g. 23) and adjust the point of the marker to the desired
distance (fi g. 23.A). Positioning on the ground and lifting are manual. Carry out these operations with the
machine stationary and make certain that there is nobody in the area in question.
When this accessory is fi tted, the overall dimensions of the machine are increased; for this reason, take
greater care during manoeuvres and disassemble before travelling on the road.
28.2 - EXTRA SEAT
Meets the possible need for two operators for each transplanting unit; only for row inter-spacing of more
than 100 cm.
Fit as shown in fi g. 24.
28.3- EXTRA TRAY HOLDER KIT
Using this kit, it is possible to have two rotating tray holders for each transplanting unit; only for row inter-
spacing of more than 120 cm.
Fit as shown in fi g. 25 and pay attention to the increased lateral dimensions.
28.4 - DISTRIBUTOR EXTENSION (fi g. 26.A)
Recommended for transplanting plants with very long leaves (13-20 cm approx.). Facilitates discharge
of the plant and reduces the risk of blockages caused by plants failing to descend from the distributor
immediately.
Fit as shown in fi g. 26.
28.5- BUCKET REDUCTION UNIT (fi g. 26 B)
It is recommended when transplanting plants with a scarcely developed leaf apparatus and rooted in
small-sized clods. It ensures a better operating accuracy.
28.6- SINCROMICRO
It allows localised spreading on each plant of a small (adjustable) dose of microgranular antiparasitic
substance.
28.7- INTRA-PLOUGHSHARE WATERING DEVICE
It allows localised spreading on each plant of a small (adjustable) dose of water.
