Switch-off distance (m)

Switch-off distance

 refers to the switch-off distance (

figure 5.8

 [B]) relating to 

the field border (

figure 5.8

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

start to close.

If the 

OPTI

driving strategy

 is selected, the optimal turn off distance is calculated 

according to the type of fertiliser in order to guarantee an optimised fertiliser dis-

tribution in the field.

If you wish to turn beyond the headland track, enter a greater distance in 

Switch-

off distance

. 

Here, the adjustment must be as low as possible so that the metering slides close 

as soon as the tractor enters the headland track. An adjustment of the switch off 

distance may lead to an insufficient fertilisation in the area of the switch off posi-

tion in the field.
