Useful hints
● The speed when driving on public roads must not exceed 30 km/h.
The speed during spreading should not exceed 30 km/h.
● Prevent packing the fertiliser by driving long distances on uneven ground with a full hopper. If the fertiliser is
packing in the bottom of the hopper, it might damage the agitator of the spreader.
● Do not let the spreading discs rotate long periods with the shutters closed. The fertiliser will compact and might
cause blockage between shutter and agitator. The fingers of the agitator might be damaged and in worst case
break.
●
When spreading dusty fertiliser, it is necessary to clean the base of each side of the hopper regularly to prevent
fine material to build up. Fine material can pack and might cause blockage between shutter and agitator. The
fingers of the agitator might be damaged and in worst case break.
● The spreader should not be used without the pressure cone over the agitator.
● Do not fill fertiliser into a wet hopper. The humidity will influence the flow of the fertiliser to the outlet.
● Be aware that the transmission has a gearing of 1:1,39. The number of PTO- rotations is not corresponding to
the number of rotations on the spreading discs.
PTO = 540 rpm.
Spreading discs = 750 rpm.
● If the spreader leaks fertiliser, with the outlets closed, the distance between the joint and the hopper bottom is
more than 0,5 mm. Adjust the joint to a distance of 0,2-0,5 mm
(see figure 1)
.
● Make sure that the shutters close exactly in the middle of the V-mark at scale 0
(see figure 2)
.
The distance between the shutters must be 0,5 mm.
