A.2 Filling the machine
Instructions on filling the machine:

Only fill the machine when it is attached to the tractor. Make sure that the
tractor is standing on level and solid ground.

Secure the tractor against rolling away. Apply the handbrake.

Turn the tractor motor off.

Remove the ignition key.

For filling heights of more than 1.25 m, fill the machine by means of suitable
auxiliary equipment (e.g. front loader or screw conveyor).

Check the filling level e.g. with the steps being folded out or by means of the
inspection window in the hopper (depending on type).
Filling level scale (not for weighing spreaders)
A filling level scale is installed in the hopper to monitor the filling level.
This scale can be used to estimate how long spreading can continue until you
must refill the hopper.

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.

ating and road safety of the vehicle (machine and tractor) and may
cause serious damage to the machine and the environment.
 Before you start filling, calculate the amount you can load.
 Comply with the permissible overall weight.
