Use in the field
112
The maximum acceptable loss over the field edge is determined by
environment standards (EN 13739-2). In order to comply with the
standard the quantity of fertiliser spread beyond the field edge must
be a maximum of 10% of the quantity distributed in the centre behind
the spreader (= 100%). Test if the border spreading plate (optional ex-
tra) door de test therefore always before hand as described in
paragraph on page »Testing the spreading pattern of the border
spreading plate« 86.

Working method
Switch the tractor off and remove the keys from the ignition.
Engage the parking brake of the tractor.
Disconnect the right spreading disc by sliding the connector to the
right. Secure the connector with a lock clip.
Attach the border spreading plate. We recommend that the border
spreading plate should be mounted with the triangle on the fixing
plate.
Check that the vanes do not touch the border spreading plate!
Adjust the spreader based on the details given in the spreading
chart for the desired working width. Use the same settings and
coupling shaft mounting point as with full field spreading,
See also paragraph »Setting the spreader« on page 64.
Start the tractor again.
Switch the control box on.
Switch the right spreading disc off by pressing close key in the
main screen. The right dosing unit remains closed.
Engage the PTO shaft. The correct RPM of the spreading discs is
the value given in the relevant spreading chart less 25%, e.g. 950
RPM/min. - 25% = 715 RPM/min.
If you want, you can choose to accelerate so that you are driving at
the same speed as during full field spreading.
The control system will drive the dosing units in such a way that the
actual application rate is equal to the set application rate through the
lower PTO shaft RPM.
In the event of spreader failure or stoppage:
Stop spreading immediately!
Disconnect the PTO shaft immediately!
See then paragraph »Failure and stoppage« on page 119.
After border spreading:
Switch on the right spreading disc again by pressing the open key.
Switch the tractor off, remove the key from the ignition and engage
the parking brake of the tractor.
Remove the border spreading plate.
Reconnect the drive of the right spreading disc.
