9.
Horsepower requirement is too high
Check body blade and top knife sharpness.
Machine overloaded.
Bale handler tines may be set too low.
10.
Machine is not chopping
Blades blunt.
Not enough material in body, or material is not
heavy enough. Try adding more material, or, in
the case of hay/straw, add water or a fork of
silage to weigh it down.
Machine overloaded.
11:
Machine breaks ASA200 link
Check chain alignment of large sprocket,
tol/- 2 mm.
Check chamfer on edge.
Check roll pins used in joiner link.
Check idler tension.
12:
Bale goes in too quickly
If the bale goes into the machine too quickly, it
may place an unnecessary load on the tractor
and drive line, slowing overall mixing time, since
the body blades
don’t chop long, fibrous material
as efficiently as the top knife. Check tine buffers
and tine-to-top-knife gap.
13:
Excessive hitch wear
If excess hitch wear is noted, check:
-Speed of use; hitch rated for a maximum of 25
km/h.
-Hitch is level on tractor.
-Fit of hitch and lubrication.
-Wear on tractor hitch.
-Brake operation
—
should match tractor brakes.
-For excessive movement (which means it is
not tight on pin/hitch).
14:
Leaking valve chest (where fitted)
Check oil is only flowing from pressure (
“P”) side
to tank (
“T”) side. Reverse-pressuring the valve
check will damage the seals. Adding a one-way
valve on the return pipe will prevent this.
15:
Blockage at top knife
For non-bale handler models, load smaller
sections of material into machine.
For bale handler models, check tine height
settings.
Ensure all feed materials are free from foreign
objects before loading into machine.
In the unlikely event of a large blockage
occurring that prevents the machine from
restarting using the tractor, it may be necessary
to enter the mixing chamber to manually clear
the blockage. Please refer to Section 5, Point U,
on safety.
