8.1 Filling the machine
WARNING
Danger of breaking during operation, insufficient stability and
insufficient tractor steering and braking power on improper use
of the tractor!
Comply with the maximum load of the connected machine and the
approved axle and drawbar loads of the tractor. If necessary, drive
only with a partially filled hopper.
• Remove residues or foreign bodies from the hopper before filling
with fertiliser.
•
Make sure that the charging sieve is always closed before you
fill the hopper. Only a closed charging sieve prevents clumps of
fertiliser and/or foreign bodies getting into the hopper and block-
ing the agitator.
•
Let the floor belt run for a short period to reduce friction.
• It is essential to observe the safety instructions from the fertiliser
manufacturer. Use appropriate protective clothing as necessary.
