Implement Usage
Please remember when using:
•
PTO shaft speed
•
Working speed
•
Working at the field edge
PTO shaft
> Switch the PTO shaft on at a low engine speed.
Select PTO shaft speed depending on harvest output requirements.
Working speed
Prevent crossing swathes
As a general measure, prevent the crossing of mowing swathes. The
harvest is distributed unevenly, the implement is loaded abruptly. the
implement could be damaged.
Drive around obstacles in far distance
Obstacles must be circumnavigated in good time and at a distance.
Due to the width and length of the implement, the implement reacts
slowly and has an afterrun. the implement could be damaged.
A constant working speed provides uniform depositing of crops. The
working speed should be set between 4 and 8 km/h. The working
speed depends on ground and harvest conditions.
> Select a working speed at which the crop is picked up cleanly and
completely.
Cornering
Ensure that, when cornering, the corner radius is not taken too close.
During close cornering, the friction clutch can respond too early lead-
ing to uneven distribution.
> Anticipate cornering in advance.
