Check list
Before every use:
● Check that the spreading discs turn easily when the PTO shaft is not mounted.
NOTE: If not - check the transmission.
● Check that the PTO shaft has the correct length, with a correct overlap of the axle ends (min. 100 mm.) for the
specific tractor
(see figure 1)
.
If the overlap is too big or too small it will result in a serious damage of the complete transmission, including
bending the splined input shaft of the transmission. Bending the splined input shaft will eventually cause brea -
king the input shaft of the transmission due to metal fatique.
● Check that the agitators turn with a similar resistance.
NOTE: If not - check the bearings and the distance between the joint and the hopper bottom
(see figure 2)
.
●
Check that the outlet shutters move easily.
NOTE:
If not - check for dirt and jammed objects.
● Check that the spreading vanes are intact and correctly mounted.
NOTE: The vane is not intact if deformed or with wearing holes.
Rust on the surface of the vanes is OK as the fertiliser will grind of the rust.
● Protection tubes of the PTO shaft are intact.
● The security chain of the PTO shaft is fixed.
●
Top link and lift arms are intact and secured by lynch pin.
● The lift arms of the tractor are set parallel.
● Check that the bubble level is positioned correctly according to the fixed reference spirit level. Place the sprea -
der horizontal and vertical leveled according to the reference spirit level – and check that the adjustable bubble
level is correct adjusted at 0 degree
(see figure 3 and 4)
.
● Especially for W-spreaders
Check that, with an empty and both horizontally and vertically levelled spreader, the weight shows approximately 0
kg in the display.
NOTE: If the weight is not 0 kg (+/- 3 kg) or fluctuates - see the CALIBRATOR or ISOBUS manual.
●
Especially for hydraulic motor
The oil flow rate must be within the limits below:
Min: 45 l/min at minimum 145 bar
Max: 60 l/min at maximum 200 bar
NOTE:
Oil filtration minimum 25 micron
