Adjusting Seed Drill Control Sensors

Sowing shaft sensor (A), fan shaft sensor (B) and land wheel sensor (C) require to be correctly adjusted for an accurate monitoring.

Sowing Shaft Sensor

Adjust distance between sensor (A) and magnet (D) as specified. Secure sensor with lock nuts (E).

Specification

Distance Between Sensor and Magnet -Maximum Distance 1.5 mm (0.06 in.)

Fan Shaft Sensor

Adjust distance between sensor (B) and cam to specification:

Specification

Distance Between Sensor and Cam -Maximum Distance 1.5 mm (0.06 in.)

Turn sensor (B) into fan shaft support until it contacts a cam and then turn back half a turn. Thus the specified distance is obtained. Check that cams will pass sensor freely. Secure sensor with lock nuts (E).

Land Wheel Sensor

Adjust distance between sensor (C) and rotating bar magnet (D) to specification. The south pole of the bar should then point toward the sensor. Secure sensor with lock nuts (E).

Specification

Distance Between Sensor and Rotating Bar Magnet -Maximum Distance 3 mm (0.12 in.)
