Rectifying faults
WARNING
Risk of injury from moving machine
parts
All work on the machine must
be carried out only when the
machine is not running.
 Apply the tractor parking brake.
 Switch off the tractor engine.
 Remove the ignition key.
 Secure the machine against rolling
away.

If work is being carried out on the ma-
chine while it is raised, use suitable
support elements to secure the ma-
chine and prevent it lowering or tipping
over.
ATTENTION
Risk of material damage due to use of
non-original spare parts
Spare parts that do not fulfill the require-
ments reduce the machine's safety, relia-
bility and performance.

Use only original spare parts. Infor-
mation on these can be found in the
spare parts catalogue or obtained from
your specialist workshop.
Fault Possible causes Remedy
Irregular rotor function Working height set too high Set the working height lower (see
Section 7.7.3 Adjusting working
height)
Working speed too high Reduce the working speed Drive
more slowly on uneven ground/ar-
eas with an increased volume of
forage.
Drive speed too low or too high Correct the drive speed (guide
value 450 rpm)
Non-uniform tire pressure Correct the tire pressure (see Sec-
tion 10.9 Tire maintenance)
Tire pressure too high For smooth running, you can re-
duce the tire pressure of the
wheels of the rotor chassis to 1
bar.
Longitudinal inclination of the
rotor incorrectly set Change the longitudinal inclination
(see Section 7.7.7 Adjusting the
longitudinal inclination)
Lateral inclination of the rotor
incorrectly set Change the lateral inclination (see
Section 7.7.6 Adjusting the lateral
inclination)
High degree of forage con-
tamination Working height set too low Set the working height higher (see
Section 7.7.3 Adjusting working
height)
Irregular swath form Swath formation set incorrectly Adjust swath formation (see Sec-
tion 7.7.5 Adjusting the swath for-
mation)
