Spreading operation
•
The spreading vanes are made of especially hard-wearing stain-
less steel. However, the spreading vanes are wearing parts.
•
The type of fertiliser, times of use and spread rates influence the
service life of spreading vanes.
•
The technical condition of the spreading vanes a is essential for
uniform lateral distribution of the fertiliser on the field (i.e. form-
ing strips).
WARNING
Danger of ejection of parts of the spreading vanes, caused by
worn spreading vanes!
Every day, at the start and end of spreading work, check all spreading
vanes for visible damage/defects. Refer to the criteria for the re-
placement of wearing parts in the chapter, page 82.
WARNING
Danger from materials or foreign objects that are thrown from or
ejected by the machine at high speeds.
•
Make sure that uninvolved persons are kept well clear of the
danger area of the machine in the following situations:
ο
Before you switch on the power for the spreading discs.
ο
While the tractor engine is running.
•
When spreading at the edge of fields in residential areas / near
roads, make sure you do not endanger anybody or damage any-
thing. Keep an adequate safety distance or use suitable devices
for boundary spreading and / or reduce the drive rev. speed of
the spreading discs.
WARNING
Risk of contusions, cutting, catching, drawing in and knocks
through insufficient stability and tipping of the tractor and/or the
connected machine.
Drive in such a way that you always have full control over the tractor
with the attached machine.
In so doing, take your personal abilities into account, as well as the
road, traffic, visibility and weather conditions, the driving characteris-
tics of the driver and the connected machine.
