Description
AMAZONE ZA-U Setting Chart for the -01 Series centrifugal fertiliser broadcasters, providing detailed machine settings, fertiliser application rates, seed settings, calibration information and working width adjustments.
This 28-page digital PDF manual is a practical reference for owners and operators of AMAZONE ZA-U centrifugal broadcasters who need the correct information for setting and calibrating the machine for different materials and operating conditions.
The AMAZONE ZA-U Setting Chart includes information for fertiliser spreading as well as settings for a range of seeds and other materials. It provides guidance on selecting the correct spreading discs, setting the machine height, adjusting the application rate and obtaining the required working width.
The manual begins with a summary of the available settings and the relationship between the different spreading disc types, fertilisers and machine settings. It also includes specific information for the AMAZONE ZA-U when used with the FR 2000.
Machine setting guidance explains the important factors that should be considered before spreading. These include the type and condition of the fertiliser, working width, mounting height, spreading disc selection and the correct position of the adjustable spreading vanes.
The manual contains detailed application-rate tables showing the settings required for different working widths and forward speeds. These tables allow the operator to select the appropriate machine setting for the required quantity of material to be applied.
Calibration instructions are included to help check the actual spread rate before working in the field. The calibration section explains the procedure for collecting and weighing material and using the result to confirm or adjust the machine setting.
The AMAZONE ZA-U Setting Chart also provides information covering normal fertilising and late top dressing. Diagrams show the required position of the spreading disc vanes and the relationship between mounting height and the crop or ground surface.
A useful conversion section provides information for operators working with Imperial measurements as well as metric figures. This includes conversions for working widths, forward speeds, weights and spinner disc heights.
Border spreading is covered in detail. The manual includes settings for the optional border spreading disc and information on selecting the appropriate disc according to the tramline distance and required working width.
The boundary spread limiter is also covered, with diagrams showing how the machine can be set to prevent fertiliser from being spread beyond the required field boundary.
TELE-SET border spreading information is included with instructions for adjusting the telescopic vanes and selecting suitable settings according to fertiliser type and distance from the field border.
Fertiliser setting tables cover a wide range of commonly used products and materials including:
• ICI Nitram
• KEMIRA Nitraprill
• Norsk Hydro Extran
• CAN granular fertilisers
• KEMIRA NPK fertilisers
• ICI Turn Out
• ICI First Cut
• ICI No. 8
• Norsk Hydro regular fertilisers
• KEMIRA Swardsman
• Compound fertilisers
• Superphosphate
• Triplephosphate
• Magnesia-Kainit
• Kieserite
• Granular Potash
• Ground Potash
• Slug pellets
The individual spreading tables provide information covering effective working width, spreading disc type, disc or vane settings, lever setting position, forward speed and application rate.
A separate seed setting section is also included.
Seed and crop settings include:
• Oats
• Barley
• Wheat
• Rape
• Beans
• Bitter lupines
• Sweet clover
• Turnip
• Rice
• Perennial rye grass
The seed charts provide the appropriate spreading disc, mounting position, effective working width, forward speed and application-rate information for the material being spread.
This manual is particularly useful when setting up an older AMAZONE ZA-U broadcaster where the original setting information has been lost or is no longer available with the machine.
Correct spreader adjustment is important because fertiliser characteristics can vary according to material type, density, storage conditions and moisture. The manual should therefore be used as the manufacturer’s setting reference together with normal calibration checks before field operation.
