Procedure
Engage the ExactLine by letting the relevant single-acting
hydraulic valve run for a few seconds. This is also how pressure is
built in the accumulator. You will see the ExactLine symbol on the
main screen. The symbol only appears when the ExactLine is in
working position.
Close the tap on the hydraulic hose to prevent the ExactLine from
changing position while spreading due to a leaking tractor valve.
Switch the tractor off, remove the key from the ignition and engage
the parking brake of the tractor.
Do not change the settings of the spreader.
See paragraph »Setting the spreader« on page 64.
Set the ExactLine to the required position, based on the (online)
spreading chart or the calculation given above.
Start the tractor and set the correct PTO shaft and spreading discs
RPM, based on the spreading chart, online spreading chart or the
chart given above.
If you want, you can choose to accelerate so that you are driving at
the same speed as during full field spreading.
Continue operating the spreader in the same way as in full field
spreading,
See paragraph »Start spreading« on page 105.
Check regularly while spreading to see if the symbol of the
ExactLine remains on screen. If the symbol disappears the
ExactLine is no longer in a good work position.
Set the ExactLine back to transport mode after use by opening the
tap in the hydraulic hose and then opening the relevant single-
acting hydraulic valve for a few seconds.
The ExactLine's position is displayed on the main screen if you have
connected this function.
In this way, you will make fewer spreading errors caused by an
incorrectly positioned ExactLine.
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.
