Attaching and detaching
-
Couple
DS3800 RINK disc spreader
to towing vehicle.
- Connect hydraulic lines (3) and (4) to towing vehicle as a closed oil circuit is required.
(see page 9 – Fig. 1)
- Secure the valve actuator (5) for the conveyor belt to the towing vehicle using the
supplied holder (see page 9 - Fig. 1).

For external oil supply
#
(see page 16)
plug the plug-on pump onto the PTO shaft of
the tractor and secure against twisting using the attached torque support. The power
take-off may only be engaged when the motor is not running, as switching on the PTO
shaft under load can cause the gear-pump connecting pinion to break. For optimum
operation, the PTO speed should be about 450 1/min; this corresponds to 25 l/min. The
oil temperature should be around 25
o
C when starting work; if necessary, warm up the
hydraulic system. A too low PTO speed or too low oil temperature, will affect the
spreading power. Before starting work, check the oil level on the hydraulic tank (middle of
inspection glass). The hydraulic system is filled with
Plantosyn 3268 ECO
hydraulic oil at
the factory. Too little oil can damage or destroy the hydraulic pump.
- Attach the seven-pin plug of the lighting system to the towing vehicle.
(See page 17 – Fig. 10).
- Fully crank up the jockey wheel, then loosen the jockey wheel clamp and pull the jockey
wheel up as far as possible and clamp.
Assemble hydraulic lines in such a way that they do not touch the ground
or rub against the towing vehicle.
Couple in reverse!
Depressurise hydraulics to towing vehicle before coupling.
Before each use
-
Check the
RINK DS3800 disc spreader
for
any
externally visible damage and repair, if
necessary.
- Check the tyre pressure.
- Check the running track of the conveyor belt; readjust if necessary, as the conveyor belt
must not touch the side (see page 15).
- Check lighting system #.
Loading
- Note the desired maximum ground pressure.
- When loading observe the permissible total weight.
