BRUSH:
The brush controls seed output through the disc’s holes,
ensuring that a predefined number of seeds is released through each hole.
Loosen the 2 wing screws to adjust the brush. The higher the brush,
the greater the number of seeds released. Hence, when the brush is lowered,
fewer seeds are released.
The standard brush position is when it skims against the sowing disc.

GUIDe plate:
The guide plate consists of 2 forks.
These forks guide theseeds to the sowing holes,
as shown opposite:
