NDICATION
Most types of fertilisers attract water and can thereby form large
chunks. These chunks can block the spreader or distort the spreading
pattern.
•
When working under moist weather conditions, use a hopper cover
that closes well.
•
Do not spread without a hopper cover under moist conditions.
•
Never leave the fertiliser for a long period of time in the spreader.
Chunks can also be formed through moisture in the air.
•
Always clean the spreader well after use, including the dosing
openings and the discharge bushings.
Adjusting the
machine
Before you can make the first run, you must make adjustments in the
field to:
spreading height
The following are important to ensure that the spreader works
properly:
•
set it to the correct height from the ground or above the crop,
•
setting it horizontal with the lift rod adjustment and top link.
Use the power lift to lift the machine to the correct height.
Measured
from the bottom of the vanes, the distance to the ground or
the crop must be 75 cm.
Set the spreader horizontally with the lift rod adjustment and the
top link.
Lock the lift limiter in this position.
Set the spreading height back to the tray test
During the tray test the disc height above the troughs was set to 75
cm.
Imagine spreading with the disc height at 75 cm above the ground
or crops!
Ground level or the top level of the crops
75 cm
