20.1 - DISTANCE BETWEEN PLANTS
The diagram (fig. 16) shows the distances that can be obtained with the 14-gripper
distributor supplied as standard. The distributor can be easily transformed, reducing
the number of grippers to 7 or 4, by removing the superfluous grippers.
(fig. 16.A) Distributor with 14 grippers min. 9 cm max 18 cm.
(fig. 16.B) Distributor with 7 grippers min. 18 cm max 36 cm.
(fig. 16.C) Distributor with 4 grippers min. 31 cm max. 63 cm.
To renew the gears supplied (fig. 17.G) and obtain the distances indicated, observe
the safety regulations and proceed as follows:
-Tighten the wheel depth adjustment device (fig. 17.F) to reduce the tension of the
chain
-Remove the casing (fig. 17.A) by turning the nuts (fig. 17.B)
-Without opening the chain, support the tensioning device (fig. 17.C) with the chain
still on it
-Move the chain to the outside of the lower and upper gears
-Release the chain tensioner gradually
-Change the gears by turning the appropriate fixing screws (fig. 17.D.E), positioning
them as shown in the table (fig. 16)
-Reposition the chain making certain that it is correctly inserted on the appropriate
chain tensioner (fig. 17.C).
-Fix the casing and return the depth adjustment device to its initial position.
