Starting the loading process
1. Move control lever (43) for pick-up and conveyor drive
to "ON" position.
2. Switch on tractor’s
p.t.o..
3. Lower pick-up.
Take care!
Doing this
automatically switches on
the Pick-up and press
drive.
When switch lever „43“ is
in the „OFF“ position then
the Pick-up and press will
not be activated.
4. When loading, switch control unit (ST)
to "lower" or "float" and in doing so
the pick-up regulates itself to the
uneven ground.
5. Observe p.t.o.-r.p.m.
• Load using average p.t.o.-r.p.m. (400-450 rpm).
To observe during the loading process!
• Only raise pick-up when loading channel is empty.
• When driving
through curves
reduce motor
r.p.m.
• When driving
through sharp
curves switch off
p.t.o. and raise
pick-up.
• Avoid uneven
loads! Important
because of
possible drawbar
overloading (see
details on the
d r a w b a r
concerning permitted support load).
• To optimumly fill the loading space, switch the scraper floor on
briefly (do not let it run continually).
• Watch the trailer fill indicator
(1
.
• Observe the permitted axle load and total weight!
Finishing the loading process
1. Raise Pick-up.
Doing this automatically switches off the Pick-up and conveyor
drive.
2. Move the switch lever „43“ to the „OFF“ position.
This position is for your safety. Doing this prevents the Pick-up
and press from being unintentionally activated, e.g. when lowering
the Pick-up while the p.t.o. is running.

Switch off scraper floor drive when
indicator is in the „B“ position.
Safety tips:
• Turn off the drive motor and take off the drive shaft
when carrying out all adjustment work.
• Faults in the Pick-up area are to be eliminated
only when the drive motor has been stopped.
Adjusting the pick-up
1. Raise pick-up slightly and secure with adjusting struts (51),
left and right sides in same position.
2. Secure with linch pin.
High adjustment:
with tall stubble and
extremely uneven
ground.
Low Adjustment:
with short green
fodder and even
ground.
Impact deflector adjustment (52)
-
In low position (T) for small swaths and short fodder.
-
In high position (H)
for high swaths.
Loading process in general
Important tips:
• A transfer, which is located on the drawbar, tells which
p.t.o.-r.p.m. (540 rpm/1000 rpm) your trailer is equipped
for.
• Therefore take care that a drive shaft with the correct
overload safety is used (see spare parts list), so that no
unnecessary damage is caused to the trailer through
overloading.
• Always adapt driving speed to the surroundings.
• Avoid making sudden curves when driving through hills and
valleys, and when transversing slopes (danger of tipping).
Loading green fodder
-
As a rule green fodder is collected in swaths.
-
Cut swaths collected are always stalk heads.
-
Set deflector (52) low position (T).
Loading dry fodder
-
Correct dry fodder collection is in swaths.
-
Don’t make swaths too small in order to save loading time.
-
Set deflector (52) in the position (H).
