  • Sample Testing: A sample of the seed is poured into the meter, and the MeterMax stand is set to your desired population and planting speed.
  • Error Detection & Adjustment: Advanced sensors count any errors, and each seed meter is adjusted, cleaned, calibrated, and repaired to ensure peak performance.
  • Performance Report: A detailed report is printed for each meter’s performance.
