Speed Calibration
At the first opportunity to operate the planter in the field
(with or without planting), the speed sensor component
of the seed monitor needs to be calibrated. The seed
monitor manual describes the procedure.
Note: Cross-check the monitor speed reading with the
tractor speedometer. Investigate if they do not
match.
Speed Sensor Operation
Refer to Figure 159
The monitor uses a pickup wheel for measuring planter
ground speed. The sensor should be set at a distance of
1
⁄
16
to
1
⁄
8
inch (1.6 to 3.2 mm) from the pickup wheel.
