Wedge-shaped field broadcasting

Wedge-shaped spreading is achieved by deactivating individual boom
part width sections on the control terminal in three phases by means
of speed reduction.

See operating instructions software AMABUS.

WARNING

Danger of being caught and drawn in with driven agitator!

•

Never open the guard and function screen while the tractor en-
gine is running.

•

Never insert any objects through the guard and function screen
while the tractor engine is running.

1. Switch off the agitator shaft drive.

2. Secure the tractor and machine against unintentional starting

and rolling away, see page 57.

3. Remove the spreader discs and screw the thumb nuts back on

the gearbox, see page 71.

4. Place a hopper under each hopper tip.

5. Open the dosing shutter fully.

6. Open the shutter hydraulically.

→

Residual fertiliser is discharged.

→

Wash out any remaining fertiliser with a water jet.

7. Reinstall the spreader discs after the residue has been drained.
