Displacement procedures
Whenever it is necessary to displace the bin from its storage to the field or vice-versa,
or from a farmhouse to another, totally empty the auger and put the upper tube in a resting
position for transporting it.
When doing these operations, keep a working speed compatible to the soil and never
superior than 16 km/h in order to protect the equipment from constant maintenance and
increasing its life time.
NOTE
NOTE
The TCA 13500 frame was designed to carry loads of up to 13.5 tons. However,
this capacity may change due to the type and condition of the tires.
• The gate (A) should be only opened for cleaning and maintenance, and only
if the gate (B) is closed, being the bin totally unhitched from the tractor
and with underpinned wheels.
• After using it, place pins and cotter pins. Avoid accidents.
To do this operation, it is necessary to
remove the telescopic nozzle and replace
it by the proper nozzle for grains. It is also
necessary to remove the lock from the cylinder
that open the gate, because the gate must be
totally opened when working with grains.
TCA 13500 can be used to follow the harvester during the crop, in order to avoid
wasting time, because there will be no need to drive to the truck to unload the product and
to return to the crop position.
