5.5.1 Fill the Feed Kitchen
1. Put the Feed Kitchen in the filling mode.
2. Remove the safety fence (if applicable) or open the kitchen door.
3. Clean the feed kitchen and for example sweep all remains of roughage to one location.
After filling the feed kitchen you can add the remains on top of the new feed blocks.
4. Make sure you know the feed types of every location.
5. Use a block cutter or a silage block cutter to cut the feed blocks up to 1.05 m (3.44 ft) deep.
6. Position the feed blocks in the center of every feed location.
7. Ask your FMS advisor if your round bales (1) (see figure 47 on page 5-27) need to be cut, and how to
cut them.
For example: first cut bales in halves, pile the halves and if necessary cut in quarters (2) push each pile
(3) to the center of a separate feed location.
8. Put the feed kitchen in operation (see Put the Feed Kitchen in Operation on page 5-1).
9. Wait until the Feed Grabber is started and has found the reset magnet.
When the Feed Kitchen goes in operation after the filling mode, all storage locations are set to filled.
