secured against rolling away.
22. In the course of cleaning work, repairs and when the
scraper floor is stood on, the engine of the tractor must
be switched off and the driveshaft disconnected.
23. If the spreading mechanism becomes blocked during
the spreading process, then the advancing mechanism
of the scraper floor must be switched off immediately.
Switch off the engine of the tractor and disconnect the
driveshaft. After that, remove grit and foreign matter
from the spreader cylinders.
24. Please make sure that the manoeuvrability of the tractor
cannot be affected by the loading of the spreader.
Furthermore, it is possible that the equilibrium of the
spreader can be impacted if it is partially loaded. For
this reason, it should be driven with caution.
Important instructions and remarks:
- Do not drive tight curves when the power-take-off is
switched on!
- Always drive with a driveshaft having a shearing
safety mechanism and the stipulated shearing pin
! Otherwise the spreading mechanism or the drive
might get damaged. In such cases, a warranty liability
cannot be assumed by the manufacturer !
- When spreading, always start with the minimum speed
of the scraper-floor advancing mechanism !
- Before switching on the scraper-floor advancing
mechanism, open the hydraulic back-plate (special
equipment) !
- The advancing mechanism should never be adjusted
when at a standstill! (Start spreading with advancing
mechanism 0 - stop spreading with advancing
mechanism 0)

0400_GB-SICHERHEIT_671
SAFETY GB
Basic rules for safety
Always use the driveshaft with its accident-protection
mechanism and always use a driveshaft of a design
suitable to the machine.
Before operating the machines, please ensure that the
driveshaft is properly attached to the machine and the
tractor.
Do not go into the working area of the driveshaft. Contact
with rotary parts can cause serious accidents.
Switch off the engine and remove the key before carrying
out servicing work. Use original spare parts only.
Check that the accident-protection, and in particular the
solid support chain, is functioning in line with requirements
and for the most extreme of operating conditions. Replace
possibly damaged parts immediately.
Length: Check the length of the driveshaft for the minimum
and maximum operating conditions. The profile-tube
covering must be at least 1 / 3 of the relevant length.
Operating curves: Please work with small and uniform
curvature (max. 35 degrees). Switch off the power-take-
off for operations in which the non-homo-kinetic joints
operate with a high curvature (drive in the steering, raise
the centre of rotation etc.).
Connections: Check that the driveshaft is correctly
attached to the power-take-offs. Check the starting torque
of the pins.
Service life: Protect the driveshaft from weather effects.
When commencing operation again, the operability of the
driveshaft must be checked and it must be lubricated in
accordance with the lubrication plan.

Hitching to the tractor
* Prior to hitching, the spreader must be secured
against rolling way by means of a blocking wedge or
the parking brake.
* The hitch of the manure spreader must be set in such
a way that the machine is in as horizontal a position
as possible. Above all in the case of spreaders having
a tandem axle, this must be ensured that the tandem
unit cannot swing out to both sides when the ground
is uneven (see Figure 1).
Caution !
A danger of injury exists in the area of the
shaft on account of crushing points. For this
reason, special caution must be exercised
when hitching!
* If stipulated, the trailer safety rope must be attached
to the trailer coupler.
* After the hitching of the carrying wheel, crank it up to
its uppermost limit and raise it using your foot (see
Figure 2).
* If the spreader is fitted with a hydraulic support leg,
connect the hydraulic lead (paying attention to the
tractor’s operating manual) and drive the support leg
to its upper limit stop. After that, remove the safety pin
(position 1) and fold in the lower part of the support
leg (position 2). Before switching off, the lower part
of the support leg must be folded down and again
secured with the safety pin ! (See Figure 3)
* If the spreader is fitted with a compressed-air or oil-
hydraulic brake, connect the connection leads to the
tractor in accordance with the instructions (which can
be found in the tractor’s operating manual).
Caution !
It is absolutely essential to pre-connect
a load-adjustment valve of the hydraulic
braking lead. This valve is integrated in
most tractors as a standard feature (you can
find more details in the tractor’s operating
manual). If no valve is present on the tractor,
then a valve must be built into the braking
lead on the manure spreader.
* In conclusion, connect the hydraulic leads (forward and
back lead) of the scraper-floor advancing mechanism
to the tractor (paying attention to tractor’s operating
manual).

MAINTENANCE GB
Checking the braking impact
- Check the functional compliance of the brakes by
means of a braking test.
- If the brake pads are too worn-out to achieve an
adequate braking impact, then the braking blocks must
be realigned. That takes place by repositioning the
turnbuckles or the clasp nuts. In the process, it must
be ensured that when the brake is applied, a sufficient
adjustment distance on the braking lever is still free.
- If the adjustment distance on the braking lever is no
longer adequate, then the position of the levers on the
axle must be corrected with the aid of the serration (see
Figure 4).
- Check the brake blocks from time to time in order to
ascertain the state of wearing of the brake pad.
Tyres and tyre pressure
Caution! Following the initial hours of
operation, retighten the wheel nuts and
check them regularly !
- It is only permitted to perform wheel changes when
the spreader is connected to the tractor. The tractor
and the spreader must be secured against rolling away
(blocking wedge, parking brake).
- The air pressure must be checked on a regular basis.
Under no circumstances is the air pressure permitted
to be greater than the permissible tyre pressure.
Lighting unit
- Connect the cable connector to the socket outlet of
the tractor (paying attention to the tractor’s operating
manual) and, by means of a short light test, check that
it is working.

MAINTENANCE GB
Driveshaft
- Only use the driveshaft supplied. If you use a different
driveshaft, that will invalidate the warranty.
- Please ensure that the coupling pins on the power-
take-off snap in completely and that the coupler is
thus fixated.
- Check the length of the driveshaft as to whether:
1. the tube is still sufficiently covered at the longest
position of the driveshaft.
2. the driveshaft is still telescopic at the shortest
position of the driveshaft (travelling a curve). If
necessary, length corrections must be performed
(see supplementary sheet).
- The standard driveshafts supplied have a shearing
safety mechanism against overloading. Check whether
the nut of the shearing pin is fixed properly. Reserve
shearing pins are included with every spreader and are
located in the moulded tube of the setting lever of the
advancing mechanism or in the moulded tube of the
flow distributor console. The shearing safety mechanism
safeguards the drive components from fracture or
damage. In particular, it takes effect if the spreading
mechanism jams abruptly on account of foreign matter
which may be contained in the manure.
- After hitching the driveshaft, fix the support chain of
the driveshaft on the protective lid or on the shaft so
that the protective tube of the driveshaft is prevented
from rotating as well (see Figure 6).
Re-tensioning the scraper-floor chain
- If the scraper-floor chain is correctly tensioned, it should
be possible to raise each individual strand of the chain
by hand by approximately 20 mm.
- The re-tensioning of the scraper floor chains is effected
by the tensioning screw (1) located on the front frame
with each strand of the chain fitted with one screw (see
Figure 6).
- Please ensure that all the chain strands have equal
tensioning.
- If, after a longer period of utilisation, the re-tensioning
distance of the chains is no longer adequate, then two
chain links (one standing link and one lying link) must
be removed and the fastening link re-mounted.

Test run and commissioning
- Before the test run, it must be ensured that all screws,
fasteners and safety elements are fixed rigidly.
Furthermore, all protective mechanisms must be
mounted in accordance with the instructions.
- With the aid of the flow distributor, allow the speed of
the scraper floor run from “0” to the maximum speed
and check that the turning direction is correct. In
the case of the hydraulic advancing mechanism, the
forward and back run is switched by a control device. If
a control device is not present on the tractor, a control
device must be installed on the hydraulic advancing
mechanism on the spreader. Verify that the leads are
connected correctly and that the flow distributor is
functioning properly.
Connecting: (See schematic)
Before commissioning / operation, in the case of all variants,
two hydraulic leads must be connected to the tractor
(paying attention to the tractor’s operating manual).
Configuration variant A: Hydraulic scraper floor drive
with current divider
Forward lead (V): Lead from the tractor to the current
divider - from current divider on to the
oil engine
Back lead (R): Lead from oil engine back to the
tractor
Configuration variant B: Hydraulic scraper floor drive
with current divider and
control device
Forward lead (V): Lead from the tractor to the current
divider - from the current divider to
the control device - from the control
device on to the oil engine
Back lead (R): Lead to the oil engine to the control
device - from the control device back
to the tractor
Before commissioning, it must be ensured that the current
divider (flow distributor) is set to “0” and the control device
is set to the middle setting!
When the spreading process starts, perform the
following actions in the specified order:
1. Switch on the power-take-off
2. Open the hydraulic back-plate or open the hydraulic
protective cover (if fitted)
3. After the rotary speed is reached, switch on the
advancing mechanism with the control device (before
operation, check the forward and back positions !)
4. Set the speed of the advancing mechanism with the
current divider
Caution!
All mounting ope-
rations are only
permitted to be
carried out when
the spreader is
at an absolute
standstill and
when the drives-
haft is discon-
nected! After
mounting work is
finished, fixate all
screws and safety
elements !

MAINTENANCE GB
Loading the spreader
* The spreader should be loaded as evenly possible in
order to achieve an optimum spreading pattern. Large
intermediate gaps in the load will make themselves
apparent as intermediate gaps in the spreading
pattern.
* The loading height must not exceed the passageway
height of the spreading mechanism !
* If possible, when loading, the spreading teeth should
be kept free from the load.
* In order to prevent damage, it should be ensured that
no larger solid materials such as stones or other foreign
matter are contained in the load!
Spreading process on the field
* Before you start spreading, fold up the spreader cylinder
protection (if this is fitted or stipulated) !
* Please make sure without fail that the spray-protection
grate is attached to the front side board! This protects
the tractor’s driver from injuries and the tractor from
damage from pieces of manure or other solid materials,
such as e.g. stones, which are thrown to the front.
Caution! During the spreading process, no
persons are permitted to be situated on the
spreader or in the immediate spreading
area !
* Because, when loading the manure spreader, it is not
always possible to keep the spreader cylinders free
from the load, in most cases, the motionless spreading
teeth project into the load. For this reason, when you
start spreading, in order to prevent potential damage
to the spreading mechanism, gearbox and drive when
switching on the power-take-off, on the loading platform
(when the scraper-floor advancing mechanism is
switched off), the spreader cylinders should run slowly
for a few revolutions by switching on the power-take-off
with a low rotary speed so that the spreading teeth are
immediately kept free from the load.
* At the start of spreading, in order to obtain a well-
distributed spreading pattern, after that, still on
the loading platform, the power take-off should be
accelerated to the full rotary speed of 540 r.p.m. / 1000
r.p.m. and the scraper-floor advancing mechanism
should be switched on. After that, on the loading
platform, continue spreading until a sufficient of the
load reaches the spreader cylinders. At this point,
switch to the appropriate gear and begin the spreading
process.
* In order to achieve an optimum spreading pattern, it is
essential to always run the power-take-off with a rotary
speed of 540 r.p.m.
* While driving, the spreading density can be adjusted
with the flow distributor.
* The spreading density depends on the setting of the
advancing mechanism, on the driving speed and on
the load of the spreader.
- A high speed and a lower advance will result in a
low spreading density.
- A low speed and a higher advance will result in a
high spreading density.
* When turning around at the end of field, switch off
the power-take-off so as to help to preserve the
driveshaft and to continue obtaining an even spreading
pattern.
* If, during the spreading process, the overload safety
mechanism of the driveshaft is activated and the
shearing pin breaks due to overloading, then the
shearing pin must be replaced. However, it is first vital
to switch off the power-take-off and the engine of the
tractor! In most cases, the cause of the breakage is
a jam of the spreading mechanism caused by stones
or other foreign matter. If that is the case, then this
foreign matter must first be removed and after that the
shearing pin upgraded. For this reason, it is advisable
to always bring reserve shearing pins along!
Switching off the spreader
* Activate the spindle brake, detach the blocking wedge
and place it under the spreader.
* Disconnect hydraulic tubes, compressed tubes and
light cables.
* Disconnect the driveshaft from the tractor and hang
it up using the support chain which is attached to the
drawbar.
* Detach the carrying wheel and crank it downwards until
the hitch of the spreader lifts off the trailer coupler of
the tractor. Switching off the spreader with hydraulic
support leg - see Section 1.
* Finally, loosen the trailer coupler.

Cleaning instructions
- Where possible, clean the spreader each time after
using it
- In the initial months, only wash with cold water. Do
not use high-pressure or steam-jet equipment! After
3 months, the maximum water temperature is 60
degrees C. Do not use corrosive cleaning compounds.
The minimum separation distance between the spray
nozzles and the vehicle is 50 cm!
Other servicing work
* Check the hydraulic tubes and couplers regularly for
damage or contamination.
* Check the lighting unit and the light cable for
damage.
* Check regularly that the brakes, the ropes, the braking
levers and other braking mechanisms are functioning
and, if need be, readjust the brakes (see section
“Checking the braking impact”)
* Check at regular intervals that all screws and safety
elements are positioned correctly and rigidly.
* Each time after use, check the spreading teeth for
damage. If the spreading teeth are worn out, then they
can be reused by simply flipping them over to their
opposite side.
Caution! Always change all spreading
teeth at the same time because otherwise
the spreading mechanism will run in an
unbalanced manner. If the spreading teeth
are worn out on both sides, in order to
obtain a precise spreading pattern, they
should be replaced with new ones. If the
spreader cylinders are de-mounted in the
course of servicing work, then the position
of the spreader cylinders with respect to
one another must be retained exactly (see
Figure 8) when they are re-mounted.

MAINTENANCE GB
Universal spreader
By contrast to manure spreaders (spreading mechanism
with 4 upright milling rollers), universal spreaders are
equipped with a C spreading mechanism (wide spreading
mechanism). The C spreading mechanism consists of two
lying mill-spreader cylinders and one fixedly mounted
protective cover. Optionally, spreading can be effected by
means of 4 spreading vanes or by 2 spreading plates.
If the universal spreader is fitted with a hydraulic jam
wall, then the hydraulic leads must be connected to the
tractor (adhere to the tractor’s operating manual!). The jam
wall can be opened and closed from the tractor using a
control device.
The commissioning of the universal spreader is the same
as for the normal manure spreader (please adhere to the
above operating manual).
Caution! Prior to loading, the hydraulic jam
wall must be closed in order to prevent the
load from running out.
Before you start spreading
1. Switch on the power-take-off
2. Open the jam wall
3. After reaching the rotary speed, switch on the advancing
mechanism
The milling rollers distribute the grit onto the wide spreading
mechanism which ensures exact and even distribution.
Servicing
Please make sure that the spreading vanes and spreading
dividers are always free of undesirable / troubling elements
(strings etc.). Clean and check the guiding tracks of the
jam wall on a regular basis !
When spreading lime, it must be ensured that this grit has
a high thickening capability and can thus accumulate in
the chain wheels and the guiding tracks of the jam wall. It
is therefore vital to check, and where necessary to clean,
the chain wheels and guiding tracks on a regular basis
(if possible after each load carried)! Furthermore, the
installation of a flow distribution valve 1:1 DW (special
equipment) in the jam wall is recommendable. This valve
guarantees the exact parallel motion of the jam wall
lifting cylinder even in the case of accumulations in the
guiding tracks.
The same safety and maintenance instructions apply as
in the case of the manure spreader!
Warranty conditions
The scope of the warranty is limited to the repair or
replacement of a part which has become defective as
defined by the manufacturer. Defects due to normal wear
and due to incorrect use are excluded from the warranty.
There is no warranty if a device is modified without the
written consent of the manufacturer or if spare parts
were employed which were not original spare parts. The
warranty does not apply to parts not manufactured by us.
The warranty does not apply to working-time and travel/
transport costs or to consequential damage and accidents
causing personal and material damage which were caused
by non-adherence to the safety arrangements or by
incorrect operation. The manufacturer reserves the right
to change the technical specifications and descriptions of
his machines at any time and without prior notice.
Before commissioning
1. After 10 hours of operation, make sure that the screws
are well tightened!
2. Lubricate and oil the machine !
3. Before operating, always check the brakes, tyres and
protective mechanisms !
