In My nordsten and now fiona DR I have done such a modernization. The cost of about 2.5 pounds in Poland you only need to cut the circle by 2mm

hi,

If i understand this correctly, the options are the overlay product for existing wheels or small seed wheels.
where can i buy the small seed wheels ?

When I fitted these small seed attachments i noticed it is putting more pressure on the drive mechanism, so I have removed.
Has anyone else noticed this problem ?

i didnt take a picture but i fitted them as in the manual (see attached diagrams from left to right), the opening between the segments on the inside and they turn with the regular seed wheel until they lock in position.
The intermediate wheel (big wheel driving the Gear wheel on sowing shaft start) jumping cogs. I was turning by the hand level to check everything.
This was not a problem when only 10 attachments were fitted, it became a problem when they were all fitted.
