The depth is adjusted centrally and adjust all the s at the same time. Following Harrow Bout Marker is the term given to the part of the machine which holds the working implement, e.g. seed coulter, hoeing device, etc. The consists of a frame attachment, two parallel arms, a wheel and the attachment for the working implement itself. The Cameleon has a variable number of carriers depending on its working width and the spacing set between the carriers. Normally four carriers are used per meter of working width. s can be adjusted sideways, allowing the machine to be easily customised to the requirements of different customers. Item of equipment for fitting at the rear on the frame to, for instance, level out the soil in the wake of seed coulters or to rip up weeds after the hoeing cutters. Item of equipment for making a tramline that the driver/operator can follow. A pair of markers will be mounted on the machine. This item of equipment requires that the machine is fitted with the Hydraulics Kit and Electronics Kit.

7 Row tracking layout and optional equipment Row Tracking Kit Straw divider the Item of equipment in order for the machine to perform inter-row hoeing, etc. Consists of a hydraulic kit for lateral adjustment and a camera for automatic row tracking. The camera is connected to the hydraulic system by the machine s computer, thereby making lateral adjustments to the machine. This item of equipment requires that the machine is fitted with the Hydraulics Kit and Electronics Kit. Item of equipment for row tracking in a high or dense crop. The Straw dividers separate the crop from adjoining rows so that system can detect and follow one row. Ground Wheel Row crop wheels Wheel 340/85R24 Wheel 380/85R30 Used for Standard Wheel Axle. Used for Steering Wheel Axle.

8 Sowing module layout and optional equipment Seed Feed Kit This item of equipment consists of a Hopper, the Seed Feed, the Seed Feed Drive, a Fan for conveying seed to seed coulters, and a Platform. The Hopper has a volume of around 3000 litres. This item of equipment requires that the machine is a Towed machine and fitted with the Hydraulics Kit and Electronics Kit. PTO Shaft The shaft is available with different spline configurations: 6- or 21- spline. Level sensor Partial Shutdown This item of equipment is located in the hopper. It is used to warn the driver/operator of low hopper levels; the sensor can be adjusted up or down. This item of equipment requires that the machine is fitted with the Electronics Kit. This item of equipment shuts down the seed rollers on one side. When in operation, seed feed rollers on the left-hand or right-hand side can be shut down. This item of equipment requires that the machine is fitted with the Electronics Kit. Application Rate Item of equipment for controlling the feed rate when drilling with seed. Auto A machine fitted with Application Rate Auto normally only needs one calibration; the system then adjusts the rate itself.
