GENERAL OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•
Never load higher than sides; load evenly.
•
Tease materials out when loading.
•
Load clear of elevator where possible.
•
Run machine in neutral position to clear elevator prior to engaging floor
chains.
(
NOTE this mainly refers to heavy loading).
•
Make sure the cross conveyor (if fitted) is clearing materials properly.
•
If a build up occurs, this can result in material being taken back around the
elevator.
•
When feeding two crops together, load the lighter material on bottom.
•
Use slow speeds for wet or heavy materials.
•
For even feeding load the machine evenly.
•
Tractor ground speed is approximately 6-8 kilometres per hour, but this will
vary to suit conditions and density of row you require.
•
Never run full load on fast speed. Place speed control in slow position and
operate in this manner. Use fast speed when clearing the last 20-25% of load.
•
When cleaning the machine, turn the tractor hydraulics off as well as the
tractor itself before leaving the tractor seat.
•
When clearing any blockages or checking the machine for faults, turn the
tractor hydraulics off as well as the tractor itself before leaving the tractor
seat.
