TIC QUANTUM Operation
10/04 3-5
Floor conveyor
The floor conveyor is controlled using the double-acting control valve on
the tractor. To set the floor conveyor to forwards or reverse, set the
double-acting control valve to the raise or lower position.
Floor conveyor speed
QUANTUM 3500 S:
The floor conveyor speed can be varied using the rotary knob provided
the pick-up or the tailgate has been pre-selected.
QUANTUM 3500 K / P, 2500 K / P, 3800 K / P:
If the tractor is fitted with a flow rate controller, this can be used to vary
the floor conveyor speed.
The knob on the control unit has no function on the K and P
wagons.
Opening the knife frame
If a blockage occurs in the conveyor channel (cut-out clutch of the
universal drive shaft is activated), switch off the pto.
Use this key to select the cutting mechanism mode. Set the lever
on the single-acting control valve to the float position in order to
open the knife frame.
Engage the pto to clear the blockage. Once the channel is free, close the
knife frame again by moving the lever on the single-acting control valve
to the pressure setting.
If the knife frame has to be totally lowered (e.g. for repair work or for
the replacement of knives), first set the single-acting valve to the
float position and then press these two buttons simultaneously.
To close the knife frame, set the control unit to the pressure setting.
Attention If the knife frame is totally open, it must be closed very carefully and
slowly. When folding up the frame, ensure that the cutting knives will not
collide with the rotor tines.
“Wagon full” indicator
The load space is filled when the “wagon full” indicator of the display
flashes (see figure). Switch off the floor conveyor, raise the pick-up and
switch off the universal drive shaft.
