4.6 FEEDING ANIMALS
Feeding animals ought to begin right after animal feed preparation. The feed car is equipped
with two shutters located on both sides of the tank, which enable administering feed both on
the right and on the left side of the machine. In order to administer feed, one ought to take
out the cotter pin that secure chute (3) – figure (4.2A) , bend back the chute (2) located on
intended feeding side and open the shutter (1) with use of hydraulic servomotor.
When administering animal feed, one ought to actuate propeller shaft. Circulation of animal
feed inside the tank causes pouring it out on one of the chute plate and then the feed falls
down on feeder. As soon as feeding on one side of the car is finished, one ought to close the
shutter and put down the chute and then bend back the chute and open the shutter on the
other side of the tank. As soon as feeding is finished, some animal feed may cover the worm.
In order to prevent this it is necessary to speed up the power take-off shaft up to 540 rpm and
empty the tank.
Feed administering speed mostly depends on rotational speed of the worm and shutter
opening height. Size of chute window is marked with number (2), which while opening the
shutter will change its location vs. information label (1) that is stuck to immovable part of the
servomotor. The label is marked with figures from 0 to 5, whereat 0 says that shutter is
closed and 5 shows maximum opening of chute window.
