You will not find any information for machine configuration for a working width of 6 m in the
fertilizer chart.
•
It is therefore advisable to refer to the fertilizer chart for the setting values at the working width
of 12 m.
Example: Apllication rate of 200 kg/ha at a working width of 6 m.
u
Take the setting values for a 12 m working width from the spread chart.
u
Set the metering slide setting for 100 kg/ha.

Discharging residual material
WARNING!
Risk of injury due to rotating machine parts
Rotating machine components (universal drive shaft, hubs) may catch and pull-in body parts or
objects. Contact with rotating machine components may cause bruises, abrasions and crushing
injuries.
u
Always stay outside the area of rotating hubs while the machine is running.
u
When the drive shaft is rotating, the metering slides are to be operated from the tractor seat
at all times.
u
Ensure that nobody is present in the hazard zone of the machine.
We recommend emptying the machine immediately after every use to maintain its value. Proceed as
similarly to the calibration test to discharge the residual material. See
Instructions for completely discharging the residual material:
Small amounts of fertilizer may remain in the machine when discharging residual material normally. To
completely discharge the residual material (e.g. at the end of the spreading season, when changing
spreading material), please proceed as follows:
u
Set the metering slide to the maximum opening position.
u
Empty the hopper until all material has been discharged (normal residue discharge).
u
Switch off the PTO and the tractor engine and lock them to prevent unauthorized starting.
Remove the ignition key of the tractor.
u
Any remaining fertilizer can be removed with a gentle water jet when cleaning the machine;. See
