6.3 DURING WORK

Bear in mind that a variation in tractor speed does not lead to a
corresponding variation in seed sown per hectare.
Always respect the following rules for successful sowing:
- Keep the hydraulic lifting device in the lowest position.
Observe the height of the front equipment from the ground as
indicated in chapter 3.2.1 reference 5 (Fig. 12).
- During the seeding operation, always maintain the number
of rotations for the requested power take-off.
- Check at times that the operating parts are not covered with
vegetable residual matter or clogged by earth
- Check that the distributor is clean, and prevent any external
matter (no seed) accidentally fallen into the hopper from
hampering the smooth seeding operation.
- Check in any case that the grain tubes are not clogged
- Maintain a seeding speed compatible with type and cultivation
of the soil
- Periodically check the results of seeding.
- The form dimensions and material of the drive shaft elastic
pins have been chosen for safety. The use of pins not original
or more resistant, could cause serious damage to the seeding
machine.
- Avoid curves with the machine grounded, neither work in
reverse.
Always lift it when changing direction or reversing.
- Start the power take-off progressively; sudden movements
are harmful to the belt.
- Maintain a seeding speed compatible with type and cultivation
of the soil in order to avoid breakages or damage.
- Lower the equipment when the tractor is in forward gear, to
avoid clogging or damage to the planter shoes; for the same
reason the tractor should not reverse when the equipment is
on the ground.
- Make sure that no foreign material (rope, sack paper) enters
the storage tank when seed is being loaded.
The equipment can transport treated chemical substances
together with the seed. Do not allow children, people, pets to
come near the equipment.
Keep away from the seed storage tank and refrain from
attempting to open it when the equipment is working or about
to begin working.

USE AND MAINTENANCE

7.0 MAINTENANCE

Here follows a list of various maintenance operations to be carried
out periodically. Lowered operating costs and a longer lasting
machine depend, among others, on the methodical and constant
observation of mese rules.
- The maintenance periods listed in this booklet are only indi-
cative and are for on normal conditions on use, therefore be
varied depending the kind of service, the more or less dusty
surroundings, seasonal factors, etc. For more serious
conditions of service, maintenance will logically be done more
often.
- Before injecting grease, the nipples must be cleaned to avoid
mud, dustand foreign bodies from mixing with the grease,
otherwise they will reduce or even annul the effect of the
lubrication.
- Always keep oils and grease out of reach of children.
- Always read warnings and precautions indicated on the
containers carefully.
- Avoid skin-contact.
- After use wash the equipment thoroughly.
- Treat the used oils and polluting liquids in conformity with the
laws in force.
7.0.1 WHEN THE MACHINE lS NEW
- After the first hours of work check that all the bolts are still tight.
7.0.2 AT THE BIGINNING OF THE WORKING SEASON
- Operate the empty machine, the air-flow frees the pipes from
condensation and removes eventual impurities.
- During periods of use, check the oil level in the overgear and
tank daily; top-up if necessary.
7.0.3 EVERY 20/30 WORKING HOURS
- Grease the transmission chains.
- Lubricate the power take-off regularly, according to the
instructions of the manufacturer.
- Lubricate the transmission oscillating arm, at least once a year.
7.0.4 EVERY 50 WORKING HOURS
- Clean the distributor carefully and thoroughly.
- Carry out a complete oil change in the overgear and tank using,
respectively, ESSO OIL SAE W80-90 and OIL OSO 32.
7.0.5 EVERY SIX MONTHS
- Grease the drive wheel bearings.
- Grease the bevel gear pair of the Cardan shaft.
