11.Clean the automatic feeder.
Start the cleaning programs for the mixer, heat exchanger, milk container, hoses and the
powder container (see chapter
Cleaning the automatic feeder, page
).
By doing this, you prevent germs that enter the automatic feeder from multiplying and in-
fecting your calves.
12.Fill the powder container with milk substitute (MP). Use only milk substitute that is suitable
for feeding calves.
Make sure that no paper or other foreign objects enter the powder container.
This could damage the dosing mechanism or impair dosing accuracy.
13.Fill the milk storage container with milk. Cool the milk or acidify it with formic acid.
Note:
When adjusting the concentration, always follow the instructions of the formic acid
manufacturer.
Make sure that the milk to be dispensed is free of straw, hay or other foreign
objects. These objects can impair the functioning of the automatic feeder.
Only heat milk in the automatic feeder if it has been completely acidified. Oth-
erwise, the stainless steel coil of the heat exchanger could become clogged.
Note:
Use a low-speed intermittent stirrer for cow's milk and flocculated milk to prevent the
milk from creaming. Stirrers that run constantly or at high speed churn the milk into butter.

Restart after long-term shutdown or change of location
If your automatic feeder has been shut down for a long period or moved to another location, it
may only be restarted by your service technician.
