SAFETY
Safety advice
Set the tractor lifting hydraulic system to "Floating position" prior to any hitching and unhitching!
No persons may stand between the tractor and implement during hitching and unhitching; do not enter
the hazard area between tractor and implement when operating the hydraulic system external control!
Danger of injury!
Check that the drilling machine (with folded in track markers) does not touch the tractor when raising.
– e.g. at projecting rear window!
Ensure sufficient steering safety - if the seed hopper is full and particularly as combination; attach
corresponding front weights to the tractor!
Check the tractor and implement for operational and traffic safety every time before they are put into
service! The safety devices must be attached!
The user is responsible for safety!
Do not transport with the seed hopper full!
Climbing onto and riding on the implement (including loading ramp) and remaining in the hazard area
(swivel zone) are not permitted!
Lower the implement, switch off the engine and remove the ignition key before leaving the tractor!
Only perform adjustment and maintenance work with the implement lowered!
Do not reach into the seed hopper and do not place any objects in the empty box, because at gear setting
> “0” any stirring shaft present will turn if the implement is moved; danger of damage and breakage!
When filling dressed seed and cleaning using compressed air, protect parts of body appropriately - the
dressing is irritant or poisonous!
Ensure that there are no persons near the implement before starting up or operating the implement!
On steep slopes (in contour line), take the position of the centre of gravity into account with hydraulic
front drilling machine (combination)!
Prior to first use and after a long period out of use, check the oil level in the transmission and all bearings
for sufficient lubrication; check the tight fit of all bolts. (leakproofness of the hydraulic system) and tyre
pressure!
You should read these Operating Instructions and the safety information ("For your safety") carefully and take heed of
them before taking the drilling machine into service; this includes the instructions for a combined cultivating unit.
The person operating the machine must be qualified regarding the use, maintenance and safety requirements and be
informed about the hazards. Pass all safety instructions on to other users.
The relevant accident prevention regulations as well as the other recognised safety, occupational health and road traffic
regulations are to be observed.
Pay attention to the "Warning signs"!
Notes in these Instructions with this symbol and warning signs on the unit indicate hazards! (See
Attachment "Pictogram symbols" for explanation of the warning signs".)
Loss of warranty
The drilling machine is only constructed for customary agricultural use.
Any other use is deemed not as intended and no liability is assumed for any damage resulting from such use.
Use as intended also includes the observance of the specified operating, maintenance and repair conditions as well as
the sole use of original spare parts.
Use of any accessories and/or parts from other manufacturers (wearing and spare parts) that have not been approved
by PÖTTINGER leads to lapsing of any warranty.
Unauthorised repairs or modifications to the unit as well as any lack of monitoring during use (... sowing quantity and that
all shares sow!) exclude any liability for damage arising therefrom.
Any complaints on delivery (transport damage, completeness) are to be submitted in writing immediately.
Warranty claims and warranty conditions to be observed or exclusion of liability are as according to our terms of delivery.

Brief description of implement
“VITASEM A” are mechanical mounted seed drills supported on the packer roller of the combination implement so that
in use e.g. a PÖTTINGER rotary harrow can avoid stones by moving up.
Mounting and disassembly are facilitated by simple coupling; unhitched the implement rests on four removeable supports.
“VITASEM A” is fitted optionally with trailed, wide or one-disc shares,
“VITASEM A” is fitted optionally with a share replacement system for trailed, wide or one-disc shares.
Driving takes place from the landwheel (both sides, if requested) via a steplessly adjustable dual-range oil bath gearbox
or from an electrical dosage device (optional).
By means of the gearwheels in the gearwheel box you can reduce to half the sowing shaft rotation speed and revert
rotation for overhead sowing.
The sowing shaft can be switched off at the right half.
The special feature of the “VITASEM A” drills is that normally with undersowing with its multi-sow wheels and when set
up for overhead sowing (on request) it can for example dose rapeseed grains individually by changing the direction of
rotation of the sowing shaft.
Easy handling and reliability in use are ensured e.g. by the rainproof seed hopper cover , functionally shaped seed hopper,
funnel outlets to each metering wheel, fill level indicator, central coulter pressure adjustment and easy calibration with a crank.
There is a range of equipment available to adapt the “VITASEM A” to vastly differing conditions: e.g. various harrow versions,
hydraulically switchable and lifting track markers, electronic tramline switching incl. hectare counter and calibration aid,
remaining amount sensor and sowing shaft control, tramline marking, hydraulic coulter pressure adjustment, agitator
shaft for grass seed etc.

The crank symbol on the display shows the number of times the crank must be turned to set the new gear setting!
If the spread rate is not equal with the nominal value set at calibration (=100%), when you start off, you will see an indi-
cation for about 3 seconds that signals the modified spread rate. The indication appears every time when you start the
engine and shows the percent value of the nominal spread rate with which you sow at the moment.
To turn off the indication, reset the spread rate to 100% with the help of the arrow keys.
