Reducing the starting torque
Reduce the startup force by starting the pickup with
a reduced motor rotation speed in the stand gas
position. This will considerably prolong the life-ex-
pectancy of the drive couplings and straps.
Ensure that the horizontal chopper does not come
into contact with foreign bodies.
Maintain a safe distance from the ma-
chine
Protect yourselves and others against
injury and accidents.
Control the operating rotation speed.
