Commencement of operation WI-5000-T
The following description refers to the add-on unit for a tractor with a 3-point power lift:
1.
Make sure the drawbars of the power lift of the tractor are at the same level.
2.
Couple the 3-point weighing equipment to the category II/III 3-point power lift of the tractor. Use the spacer
sleeves to fill up the drawbars. Use good-quality locking clips.
3.
Adjust the upper control arm to ensure the weighing equipment is in an absolute vertical position.
4.
Only very little lateral play of the weighing equipment in the power lift is allowed. Make the adjustments via
the stabilizers of the power lift.
5.
Attach the instrument with the extension triangle to the weighing equipment and secure it using the pin and
the spring clip.
Following the weighing equipment, the weighing computer can be installed:
1.
Mount the weighing computer using the mounting plate in such a location that the tractor driver is able to
see and operate the weighing computer from his control post, without the risk of mixing it up with any other
controls.
2.
Connect the 2-core power cable as follows: the red wire (+) goes to a fused, continuously live wire. The black
wire (-) goes to earth. When connecting the wires, make sure the connections are properly clean and dry.
Keep an eye on the correct voltage of the tractor and the weighing computer. The weighing computer runs
on 12 Volt.
The WIFO weighing equipment is now ready to be used.
Keep the sensor wire, from the weighing equipment to the weighing computer, at a fair distance
from live wires and the like, in order to prevent any incorrect readings. The operation of the
electronically controlled power lift could also end up deranged. Even a mobile phone call may have
an effect on the measuring data of the weighing computer.
