•
For new machines, after 3-4 full hopper loads, check that the
screws are tight and retighten if necessary.
•
Use only fertiliser with the proper grain size, of the kinds listed in
the setting chart. If you do not have accurate knowledge of the
fertiliser, check the fertiliser lateral distribution for the set working
width using the mobile fertiliser test rig.
•
When spreading mixed fertilisers, note the following:
ο
Each variety may have different flight characteristics.
ο
The individual varieties may separate.
•
After ever use, remove any fertiliser clinging to the spreading
vanes.
10.1
Filling the centrifugal broadcaster
WARNING
Danger of breaking during operation, insufficient stability and
insufficient tractor steering and braking power on improper use
of the tractor!
Comply with the maximum load of the connected machine and the
approved axle and support loads of the tractor. If necessary, drive
only with a partially filled hopper.
•
Remove residues or foreign bodies from the hopper before filling
with fertiliser.
•
Always fill the hopper with the guard and function screen closed.
Only a closed guard and function screen prevents clumps of fer-
tiliser and/or foreign bodies getting into the hopper and blocking
the agitator.
•
Observe the permitted payload of the spreader (see technical
data) and axle loads of the tractor!
•
Only fill the hopper when the sliders are closed.
•
It is essential to observe the safety instructions from the fertiliser
manufacturer. Use appropriate protective clothing as necessary.
CAUTION
Risk of tipping!
•
Only fill the fertiliser spreader when coupled to the tractor!
•
Never park or roll the fertiliser spreader when filled (with
transport device).
