9.3 Fodder discharge
WARNING
Risk of impact for people and animals if objects are thrown out
of the discharge opening or the crossover conveyor with the
mixing auger powered!
Make sure that people leave the hazardous area of the discharge
opening and / or the crossover conveyor before switching on the p.t.o.
shaft of the tractor.
Keep animals away from the hazardous area.
The fodder discharge can be started after the mixing process has
been finished.
The fodder quantity discharged onto the feeding table is set via:
• the driving speed of the mixing auger,
• the opening width of the discharge door,
• the travelling speed of the tractor on the feeding table.
The higher the driving speed of the mixing auger, the wider the
opening width of the discharge door and the slower the travelling
speed of the tractor, the larger the fodder quantity discharged onto the
feeding table.
• The discharge door must be completely opened when
discharging very dry, long and highly-structured fodder.
• The discharge door must be opened according to the desired
discharge quantity when discharging strongly pourable fodder.
• When discharging the fodder, the 750 p.t.o. shaft (if available)
can be used and the tractor engine can be run at reduced
speed.
• Increase the driving speed of the mixing auger for a short time
towards the end of the discharging procedure (gear level I or
p.t.o. shaft speed 1000 min
-1
) to throw off any fodder residues
from the mixing auger and to completely empty the mixing
container.
