4.7 Travel speed and drive r.p.m.
The travel speed and drive r.p.m. are determined by:
• the feed volume
• the ground conditions
• the dryness
The following should be taken as starting points:
• PTO shaft speed approx. 450 r.p.m.
• Forward speed approx. 8- 10 km/h
Drive r.p.m. and forward speed should be adapted to the
particular conditions each time.
