IMPORTANT!
Load to only approximately 85-90% of load volume so as to allow room for
the ingredients to mix thoroughly.
DO NOT
exceed the maximum payload capacity of the machine (see page 5)
OVERLOADING the mixing chamber can lead to a notable increase in power consumption and mixing time.
If the machine becomes blocked counter rotation of the augers will relieve the pressure. Stop the tractor,
remove the P.T.O shaft, and using a Power shaft reversing tool (Pt No: KD1563039 - optional) fitted to the
transmission splined input shaft. Counter rotate the augers manually.
Open discharge doors to relieve the pressure.
MIXING THE INGREDIENTS
1. The optimum mixing time can be determined by analysing samples taken from the feed after discharge.
Disengage the PTO after mixing is completed.
NOTE!
For the best results, use the shortest possible mixing time; over-mixing can reduce the quality of the
feed.
2. Repeat the loading, pre-cutting, mixing and weighing procedure as required.
TRANSPORTING THE MACHINE
1.
Ensure PTO is disengaged. Check that the discharge doors are closed and the safety valve next to the
discharge conveyor lift cylinder is closed (figure 14).
2.
Release parking brake and/or remove wheel chocks (where applicable).
SAFETY FIRST!
Whenever the wagon is taken onto a public road, or it is not working, ALWAYS make sure
that the safety valve next to the discharge conveyor lift cylinder is closed (fig. 14).
DISCHARGE CONVEYOR
On arrival at the discharge site, open the security valve (figure 14) for the discharge conveyor
lift cylinder.
SAFETY FIRST!
Ensure PTO is disengaged before
approaching the machine. NEVER stand on the loading
mesh at the rear of machine.
1. Operate the appropriate control lever to set the height of the conveyor
for feeding onto the floor, into manger or a trough. Visually check the
position of the conveyor.
IMPORTANT!
It is not recommended that the conveyor mechanism
is not operated above the angle shown in figure 15. If the conveyor is
too steep, discharge flow will be poor and the mechanism may
become blocked.
