The seeder with the micro granular insecticide design has a micro granular tube for each seeding unit, on which the diffuser is fitted. It can be purchased from your KHUN distributor.
The MAXIMA 1, 2 and 3 seed drills and KOSMA seed drills are equipped with the same micro-granule distribution system.
In its insecticide microgranule configuration, the seed drill is fitted with a microgranule feed tube for each seeding unit, onto which the dispenser is attached. These can be obtained from your KUHN dealer.
These tubes must be cut and shortened as shown in photo 3 below in order to attach the diffuser.
We have received approval from the manufacturer KUHN to cut these tubes. This has no negative impact on the quality of sowing.
Picture 1
Proceed with the wheel disassembly of the seeder component and remove the wheel. On some models it is necessary to remove the wheel arm.
Picture 2
Remove the beveled black plastic drop tube from its holder.
Picture 3
The black plastic drop tube has to be shortened at the elbow and at the base of the bevel. Fit the 25 mm QDC-DXP® diffuser directly on the black plastic tube.
Picture 4
Put back the tube and the diffuser as they were placed before and adjust them well to avoid any contact with the stainless steel wheel. Turn the diffuser towards the back for a good micro granule distribution.
Picture 5
Proceed with the reassembly of the seeder wheel or of the arm.
Check its position after a few hours of operation and generally throughout your seeding campaign.
