Dear Customer
The Operating instructions will allow you to become acquainted with your machine and pro-
vide clear information about safe and correct handling, maintenance and care. Take the time
to read the instructions all the way through.
The operating instructions and the supplement to the operating instructions for USA / CANA-
DA are an integral part of the machine. They must be stored in an accessible location at the
workplace for the entire service life of the machine. The user must independently supplement
the instructions regarding national regulations on accident prevention, traffic safety and envi-
ronment protection.
All persons that are entrusted with the operation, maintenance or transport of the machine
must read and understand these instructions, in particular the safety instructions, before be-
ginning work. Any warranty claims lapse on non-observance of these Instructions.
If you have any questions regarding the contents of these Operating instructions or further
questions regarding the machine, please contact your PÖTTINGER service partner.
Correct maintenance and care according to the defined maintenance intervals will ensure the
operational and traffic safety, as well as the reliability of your machine.
Use only original spare parts or spare parts and accessories that are approved by PÖTTING-
ER Landtechnik GmbH. Only original spare parts that are approved by us have been tested
and accordingly are appropriate for use in your machine. The use of any unapproved parts
forfeits any guarantee or guarantee claim. Even after the end of the warranty period we rec-
ommend using original spare parts to ensure the performance of your machine.
The Product Liability Law obligates manufacturers/dealers to transfer operating instructions
when selling machines, as well as to instruct clients regarding the safety, operation and
maintenance regulations concerning the machine. Confirmation in the form of a declaration
of transfer is required to verify that the implement and Instructions have been transferred cor-
rectly. The declaration of transfer is delivered together with the machine.
Every self-employed person and farmer is an entrepreneur within the meaning of the product
liability legislation. Therefore corporate property damage according to the Product Liability
Law is excluded from the liability of PÖTTINGER. Corporate property damage according to
the Product Liability Law refers to damage caused by the machine. Damage to the machine
is not property damage according to the Product Liability Law.
The operating instructions are a part of the machine, therefore you must transfer them when
selling/transferring the machine to a new user. Train and instruct the new owner in the regu-
lations stated.
The PÖTTINGER service team wishes you the best of luck.

Tightening torque
This factory standard applies to all metric bolts for which no special tightening torque is
specified in the drawing/manual. The relevant grade is visible on the bolt head.
The values given are nominal and are valid for a head friction rate of IJ=0.14 and a
thread friction of IJ=0.125 Slight tensioning force differences can exist through differing
friction rates. The values given are to be kept to a tolerance of ± 10%.
By using the given tightening torque and the existing friction rate used, then up to 90%
of the minimum yield strength of the bolt material is used in accordance with DIN ISO
898 .
If a specific tightening torque is given for a bolt connection, then all these bolt connec-
tions are to be tightened to the specified tightening torque using a torque wrench.

Functional elements
Names and functions
Pos. Element Function
1 The drawbar / tele-
scopic drawbar with
attached rocker
allows for narrower curves on a headland. During transporta-
tion; telescoping (Optional).
Drawbar with drawbar eye; telescoping (Optional)
2 Support stand Ensures stability when the machine is parked.
3 Loading platform
with a ladder
Cabin platform with folding ladder to help when filling the seed
hopper as well as for maintenance work.
4 Seed hopper Seed hopper
5 Side loading plat-
form
Cabin platform with ladder and steps for maintenance work.
The side platform is only to be used when machine is in the
operating position.
6 Dosing wheel hous-
ing with dosing
wheel
The dosing wheel regulates the sowing rate for the seed drill;
electric drive.
7 Seed distributor For even seed distribution into the sowing hoses that lead to
the coulter system. Mechanically or electrically controlled
valves at the outputs allow the sowing hose to be blocked
when required.
8 Track marker (Op-
tional)
The track marker indicates the track to be driven. Hydraulic
drive, automatic control.
9 Warning sign with
rear lights, rear
right
Rear lights and warning signs (depending on country of desti-
nation)
10 Tramline markers
Standard (Option)
Tramline markers denote the tramlines that are kept free of
seed for machines that follow. Hydraulic drive, automatic or
semi-automatic control.
11 Harrow tines The harrow closes the sowing lines and evenly covers the
seed with soil.
12 Coulter thrust roll-
ers
Coulter thrust rollers ensure safe soil closure by re-compact-
ing the furrow.
13 DUAL DISC dou-
ble-disc coulters
The coulter system deposits the seed in the sowing furrow.
14 Tyre packer The tyre packer ensures controlled and uniform recompacting
ahead of the coulters and serves as a chassis for street trans-
portation.
15 Left edge plate For a uniformly even working pattern, the edge plates are
standard and multi-adjustable on both sides .
16 Disc system (Disc
harrow)
The maintenance-free, rubber-mounted discs loosen the soil
over the complete surface.
17 Rolling cover Rolling cover made from tarpaulin fabric; dust and rainproof.
18 Warning sign with
side lights, front left
Front position lights and warning signs, depending on country
of destination.
