VERTICAL TOWED MIXER
Gear Box
The gear box is fitted with neutral and two speeds, one slow and the other
fast. The gear change is carried out by the corresponding control (Cp) or from
the gear box using the lever (C).
The three positions of the gear box permit:
- Slow speed: Shred the components of the mixture.
-
Fast speed: Carry out the mix and spread it out.
-
Neutral: Decouple the transmission of the auger and allow the
hydraulic pump to run on empty.
The gear box is not synchronised, and therefore to change gear, the
power take-off must be stopped and then the corresponding control must be
worked. Should it not go into gear, stop the tractor, and rotate it manually
working the corresponding control
The person carrying out this operation should keep the keys
in his possession until finishing the operation.
