When filling the transfer vehicle take care that no foreign substances reach into the trailer.
Should the vehicle be loaded with a loader, crane or the like, we recommend using a
screen (screen look “Additional equipment”).
After filling the trailer only unload on a level work place. Open the unloading auger,
Activate the augers by operating the pto shaft. The pto rev should amount between 540
and 1000 rpm depending on conveying good; an operation above 1000 rpm is forbidden.
Get the rev slowly to the rated-speed. When filling the seed drills and fertilizer spreaders
we recommend using a rev of 540 rpm, for transferring of crop a rev of 1000 rpm. Then
open the hydraulic slides and adjust it to the favoured unloading speed. The pointers for
the position of the slider at the front of the machine are moving to the position “open”.
The bin is unloading. After the transferring process has ended, first close the hydraulic
slides then stop the augers when they are completely empty.
Then fold in the unloading auger.
Caution!
Stopping the augers full can cause serious damage to the driveline, always close
slides and run augers empty before stopping, If the unloading auger is folded before it is
emptied, material will run out of the hinge point.
The vehicle can now be loaded again.
3.2.1 Interrupt of the transfer process
When interrupting the transfer process the same steps have to be proceeded as after the
end of the transfer process.
Caution!
When interrupting the unloading process make sure, that at first the slides are closed and
then the augers are shut off to avoid a start up of the augers under full load. If the
unloading auger is folded before it is empty, material will run out of the hinge point.
3.2.2 Driving on public roads
When driving on public roads the following points need to be considered:
The jack has to be lifted completely.
The hydraulic lines between carrier vehicle and trailer have to be locked to avoid an
opening during the tour.
The unloading auger has to be folded in.
Chasers with steering axle (GTU25 / GTU32) the operating ran of the hydraulic system
has to be set to retracted/floating position to activate the steering. When reversing the
steering control rams need to be fully extended, to ensure the steering is locked.
3.3 Parking of the transfer vehicle
The transfer vehicle always has to be parked completely empty. Proceed the following
steps:
•pull the parking brake, in slope areas put wedges in front of the wheels
•separate shaft, hydraulic and braking pipes as well as electric junction from the tractor
and put them in the designated holders
•extend jack
•open cleaning door, so that intruding water can drain
•uncouple transfer vehicle
