Operating page: AUTOMATIC mode
Available for models with on-board weighing system only.
In automatic mode, the machine distributes the set amount of fertilizer per hectare, adjusting gate
opening to tractor speed.
The gate opening required to spread the set amount of fertilizer is determined not just by the standard
calibration for that fertilizer, but also by automatic recalibration performed regularly by the system with
the spreader in movement.
Given the delicacy of the calibration operation, AUTO mode is recommended only in the case of fields
with flat even ground.
The page is divided into sections displaying data and/or commands.
