  • Page 50: Layout And Function

    For the soil tillage implement to be able to deflect upwards when it hits obstacles, the AD-P Super pack top seed drill is supported by the AMAZONE roller. This seeding combination optimises loosening of the soil, reconsolidation, uniform placement depth and covering of the seed in one field pass.
  • Page 51 The air stream delivers the seed to the distributor head (Fig. 24/3), which distributes the seed uniform- ly onto all the coulters. Seed drills with WS coulters are used after the plough. Mulch seeding is possi- ble with the AMAZONE rotary cultivator if the AD-P is equipped with RoTeC Control coulters (Fig. 24/4).

    Layout and function 5.7.6 Seed pre-metering Seed pre-metering, which meters the seeds in the air current before the implement starts up, can be switched on in the ISOBUS control terminal. Seed pre-metering is used when corners are to be seeded that can only be reached when the imple- ment is being reversed or with raised coulters.
  • Page 68: Blower Fan

    Layout and function Blower fan The blower fan (Fig. 44/1) generates the air cur- rent that carries the seed to the seeding coulters. The hydraulic motor (Fig. 44/2) drives the blower fan. The control terminal displays the current fan speed and issues an alarm if there is a deviation from the nominal speed.

  • Page 70: Distributor Head

    Layout and function Distributor head The distributor head serves to distribute the metered material evenly over all of the coulters. For this purpose, the distributor head has indi- vidual segments. The metered material is evenly distributed over all of the segments in the distrib- utor head, and is carried to the coulters through the connected seed line tubes.
  • Page 71: Seed Tube Monitoring

    Layout and function 5.9.1 Seed tube monitoring The seed tube hoses represent the connection between the distributor head and the coulters. Each seed tube hose can be equipped with a sensor (Fig. 50/1) that detects the seed flow. A warning message is issued when the seed flow in a monitored seed line hose is interrupted or large deviations occur in the flow rate between the monitored seed line hoses.

  • Page 79: Roller Harrow With Contour Guidance

    Layout and function 5.14 Roller harrow with contour guidance The roller harrow consists of  harrow tines (Fig. 68/1),  press rollers (Fig. 68/2). The harrow tines close the seed furrows. The press rollers press the seeds into the fur- rows.
  • Page 80: Track Marker

    Layout and function 5.15 Track marker The hydraulically-actuated track markers dig into the ground alternately on the left and the right of the implement. In doing so, the active track marker (Fig. 71/1) creates a track on the field. When the track markers are properly adjusted, the next row is automatically connected when the tractor driver passes over the centre of the cre- ated track.
  • Page 81: Tramlines

    Layout and function 5.16 Tramlines Tramlines can be created on the field. Tramlines are seed-free tracks for fertilising and plant care implement used later. In the seed-free tracks, the coulters do not spread any seed. In the distributor head, the seed supply to the seed lines of the tramline coulters is interrupted (see section "Distributor head", page 70).
