8.1 General information on spreading operation
The modern technology and design of our machine and exhaustive, continuous
testing in the factory's dedicated test facilities are the prerequisites for a perfect
spreading pattern.
Despite the fact that we have manufactured the machine with utmost diligence,
deviations in the application rate or possible faults cannot be excluded, even
when complying with the intended use.
This may be caused by the following:

Changes in the physical characteristics of the fertiliser (e.g. deviating grain
size distribution, varying density, grain form and surface, treatment, sealing,
humidity)

Clumping and moist fertiliser

Clogging or bridging (e.g. through foreign particles, moist or inappropriate fer-
tiliser)

Drifting caused by wind (in the case of excessive wind speed, cancel the
spreading work)

Uneven terrain

Wear of wear parts

Damages caused by external influences

Insufficient cleaning and corrosion protection

Incorrect drive speed and forward speed

Incorrect machine settings

DANGER
Danger of injury from running engine
Working on the machine while the engine is running may result in
serious injuries caused by mechanical components and escaping
fertiliser.
 Switch the tractor motor off.
 Remove the ignition key.
 Ensure that nobody is present in the hazard zone.
