Switch-on distance (m)

Switch-on distance

 refers to the switch-on distance (

figure 5.7

 [A]) relating to 

the field border (

figure 5.7

[C]). At this position in the field, the metering slides 

start to open. This distance depends on the type of fertiliser and represents the 

ideal switch-on distance for optimised fertiliser distribution.

If the switch-on position in the field is to be changed, the 

switch-on distance

 has 

to be adjusted.

A lower distance value means that the switch-on position is closer to the field 

border.

A greater value means that the switch on position is closer to the centre of the 

field.
