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.

The display may then issue a warning to indicate the maximum ‘FORWARD SPEED’

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.

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

old settings. Subsequent recalibrations with the same

product will only report small differences.

7 Press ‘ENTER’ again to confirm and store the new

settings.
