Description of Machine
The Duncan ‘Renovator AS3000/3500’ is a Coil Tine T-
boot drill.
The large split hopper is mounted on a robust frame
accommodating large diameter tyres.
Sowing depth is controlled by adjusting the hydraulic
ram as required. The quality European air metering units
handle all seeds from turnip and rape through to peas
and maize and permits easy calibration. The seeders
are driven via a radar ground speed proportional electric
drive system. Seeding ceases automatically when the
machine is raised into the transport postion.
Working Principle
The air flow and metering units are set to give the
desired sowing and/or fertilizer rate. The coil tine and T-
boot, create the seed bed. Seed flows down the flexible
tubes between seeder and tee-boot units, and drops
into the prepared seed bed. Optional tine harrows and
following roller enhance seed to soil contact.

If the machine has not been calibrated ignore these warnings until calibration is complete.
To maintain the requested drilling rate, the metering motors speed up in proportion to the
forward speed of the machine. The metering motors are protected by a speed and current
limit. If the forward speed exceeds the maximum advised, the metering motors will not be
able to deliver enough product. At normal rates and speeds this limit is never found. Note that
the indicated maximum is for the lowest of the 2 products shown.

‘Renovator AS3000/3500’ Calibration
Calibration
The calibration test should be done to confirm the settings of
the required seed rate and is done with the drill stationary and
level with the fan off.
The metering units must be set prior to filling with seed and
the bins are calibrated one-at-a-time.
Calibration Procedures
1 On the ProSeries head unit, navigate to the ‘RATE’
screen and enter the desired rate. Hit ‘ENTER’ to store
the value. Ignore max speed warnings at this stage.
2 Prepare a suitable area for weighing and setup the
scales. Tare the scales with the same container that
will be used to weight the product. Scales must be
accurate to 2 grams
3 Ensure that the metering unit is free from debris. Close
the trap-door and the bin emptying gate.
4 The metering unit should already be set. If not refer to
the pre-calibration flowchart on previous pages. Note
that it can be hard to adjust the settings once product is
in the bins.
5 Fill the appropriate bin. A minimum depth of 300mm is
required for calibration with normal seeds.
6 Place a suitable container under the metering unit of the
bin to be calibrated.
7 Open the trap door.
8 The calibration process can be in initiated in two ways:
(i) By pressing the appropriate ‘PRIMING SWITCH’
(ii) Via the SETUP menu.
Each of these methods are described in the next few
pages. The PRIMING SWITCH method is easier and
more convenient.
(i) Calibration via PRIMING SWITCH
(recommended)
1 Press and hold the appropriate ‘PRIMING SWITCH’ for
1 second then release.
2 The ProSeries Head Unit display will change as shown.
It is likely the operator will be standing near the priming
switches at this time so will not see the display. It is only
after weighing the dispensed product that the operator
need visit the tractor cab.
11
Pt. No. 67405
Issue 1113
Calibration via PRIMING SWITCH (continued)
3 The appropriate metering unit will run until the PRIMING
SWITCH is pressed again. Product is collected in this
time. The operator is in control of the amount of product
metered out so is able to stop the metering unit when
the collecting container is at a suitable fill level.
4 Weigh the contents of the container. Write down the
amount exactly as displayed. Do not round up or round
down the value measured. Scales must be accurate to
2 grams.
5 Enter the recorded value into the ProSeries head unit as
shown. Press ‘ENTER’ to confirm as requested.
Always use consistant units of measure ie grams or
Kilograms.
6 Press ‘ENTER’ again. The instrument will then calculate
the settings in order to correctly deliver the product. The
‘error’ value is only the difference between the new and
old settings. Subsequent recalibrations with the same
product will only report small differences.
7 Press ‘ENTER’ again to confirm and store the new
settings.
8 Repeat the calibration process. In this case, the ‘Error’
reported will be very small if any. Remember to press
the ‘ENTER’ key to accept the settings. This repeat
calibration is especially important if the metering units
have been adjusted from very different values since the
last time the machine was used.
9 NOTE: If, when presing the priming switch the motors
do not turn but there are no other errors, it could be
that the previous calibration was wrongly entered. The
metering speed is out of the range of the motor speed.
This can be corrected by manually entering a ‘calibration
factor’ as follows:
(i) Press the ‘SETUP’ menu key.
(ii) Press the key below the wrench icon.
(iii) Use the up down left right arrows to select the
product. The left right arrows will appear when the
cursor is moved up one line from the ‘Cal Fact’.
(iv) Move the arrow to the ‘Cal Fact’ line, type 0.500
and hit the ‘ENTER’ key. (You need to enter the leading
zero as the machine will not accept the ‘.’ as a first
character.)
(v) Hit the ‘ESC’ key to return to the ‘SETUP’ menu or
hit the ‘MAIN’ key to return to the ‘MAIN’ menu.
(vi) Repeat the calibration process from step 1.
‘Renovator AS3000/3500’ Calibration

(ii) Calibration via ‘SETUP’ MENU
1 Ensure that steps 1 to 8 at the top of page 21 have been
carried out prior to actual calibration.
2 Navigate to the ‘SETUP’ screen by pressing the
‘SETUP’ key.
3 Access the ‘Calibration Check’ screen by hitting the key
below the weighing scales icon.
4 From the ‘Calibration Check’ screen select the product
that you want to calibrate by pressing the arrow keys
and confirm by pressing the ‘ENTER’ key.
5 The screen will then prompt, “Enter weight required
here”. Enter the amount required. Hit ‘ENTER’ to
continue Remember to set and keep to consistant units.
Note that this is is only related to calibration and
weighing; it is not related to the sowing rate entered
on the ‘RATE’ screen earlier.
6 The machine will dispense the amount you entered
based on the current settings. If the product or seeding
rates are different from the last time the machine was
used then the amount metered may not be as expected.
If you suspect that the calibration container will overflow
then you can stop metering process by hitting one of the
5 keys along the bottom of the screen.
7 Once the machine has stopped the calibration delivery,
either because it has reached the amount you entered
or you forced it to stop, weigh the contents of the
container. Write down the amount exactly as displayed.
Do not round up or round down the value measured.
Scales must be accurate to 2 grams.
8 Enter the recorded value into the ProSeries head unit as
shown. Press ‘ENTER’ to confirm as requested.
Always use consistant units of measure ie grams or
Kilograms.
6 Press ‘ENTER’ again. The instrument will then calculate
the settings in order to correctly deliver the product. The
‘error’ value is only the difference between the new and
