18.0 - GRIPPER CLOSING
Closing of the grippers can be advanced or delayed by adjusting the guides which
cause it to close (fig. 10.C):
-move up to advance
-move down to delay
19.0 - TRANSPLANT UNIT IN WORK PHASE
19.1 - Use the drive wheel adjustment device (fig. 11) to set the transplant units to
a horizontal position in relation to the ground (fig. 11.A).
19.2 - Check that an oscillation space of approximately 2 cm remains between
the beam stop and the linkage (fig. 12).
This is essential to allow the transplant unit to adapt itself to any unevenness in the
ground.
20.0 - TRANSPLANT DISTANCE
INTER-ROW SPACING: minimum 50 cm for single frame version (fig. 13)
minimum 25 cm for double frame version (DT) (fig. 14)
Inter-row spacing must be adjusted with the machine coupled to the tractor and with
the lift unit lowered.
Clean the hexagonal axis and the frame of any soil or other dirt, slacken the screws
(fig. 15.A), position the unit at the desired distance, sliding it along the frame. Do not
carry out these operations by hammering with metal objects as this could cause
serious damage to the components.
