6.5.1
Replenishing feed
To ensure that the automatic feeder can prepare feed, you must make sure that the powder
container are alwaysfilled.
6.5.1.1 Filling the milk powder container
Only add milk powder (MP) that is suitable for calf feeding.
Make sure that no paper or other foreign objects enter the powder container. The
dosing mechanism could otherwise be damaged or the dosage accuracy impaired. As a result,
your calves could receive insufficient concentration of feed and would not be supplied with any
or enough food. This can lead to malnutrition, which can cause impaired growth or develop-
ment, increased susceptibility to illness or even the death of your calves.
If the powder hopper is empty, no warning is displayed. Feeder operation is con-
tinued without a milk substitute. This can result in your calves only receiving water. This can
lead to malnutrition, which can cause impaired growth and development, increased suscepti-
bility to illness or even the death of your calves.
