1. Check the mixing container for foreign
objects before starting the tractor engine.
Remove foreign objects from the mixing
container, if necessary.
2. Start the tractor engine.
3. Park the tractor with the hitched fodder
mixing wagon on even ground. Align the
tractor in a straight line in front of the fodder
mixing wagon. Further angular
misalignment of the propeller shaft causes
increased wear.
4. Secure tractor and fodder mixing wagon
against rolling.
5. Close possibly open discharge doors.
6. Swivel the weighing device (if available)
from the tractor into filling direction.
7. Switch the weighing device on and start the
programme (if available).
8. Make sure that people leave the area where
the fodder mixing wagon is filled.
9. Switch the tractor's p.t.o. shaft on.
The mixing auger starts.
10. Let the tractor engine run at appropriate
speed to ensure that the tractor engine runs
equally and does not stall when the mixing
container is being filled.
11. Fill the mixing container by means of a
tractor equipped with a front loader or by
means of a wheeled / yard loader.

10.1.1 Recommended filling order
For undoing round or cuboid bales, a higher power is required.
The required power can be reduced by means of a two-level
switchgear (gear level II).
Recommended procedure for processing round or cuboid bales:
1. Extend the counter-cutters into the mixing container.
2. Fill round or cuboid bales in at slow mixing auger driving
speed.
3. Increase the driving speed of the mixing auger after the
bale has been "undone".
4. Now retract the counter-cutters from the mixing container.
1. Fill highly-structured fodder components (hay, straw etc.) in with the mixing auger powered.
Have them possibly mixed for a short time before filling in the next component. A longer mixing
ensures better chopping of the long stalks.
2. Fill in concentrated feed, grain feed etc.
3. Fill in mineral feed by means of the loading tool (shovel) or via the feed funnel (optional extra).
