1. Delivery
The fleece-winding machine leaves our factory according to your specifications.
Upon receipt, you must make sure that everything was properly delivered.
As a rule, the fleece winder is ready for use upon delivery. However, before using
the machine and after the first use, you must check all hydraulic, screw and bolt
connections .
The hydraulic system is not filled with oil upon leaving the factory. Before use,
therefore, it must be absolutely ensured that the hydraulic cylinder is
slowly actuated several times in both directions, until the pipe and the cylinders
are filled with oil.
2. Safety instructions
See also safety instructions for excavator DP5.
The fleece disk may only be operated by trained personnel, who must inform
assistants or other persons located in the vicinity of the work area about relevant
risks.
The basic configuration of the device provides for its attachment to the rear
hydraulics of the tractor, which must have at least 150 hp and an empty weight of
8,500 kg. In matching coupler parts, it must be ensured that unintentional
loosening of the connection is avoided, especially in fast couplers. A fastening
of the connection to the tractor ensures more security and ease of use. Side
braces must be rigid, and the air pressure in the rear tires must be in the upper
limit approved by the manufacturer in order to prevent machine oscillation.
Working in inclined terrain over 5% is not allowed.
Before operating with the winder, please ensure that no body is present within 20
m of the swivel range!
When working on power lines, telephone cables and trees, the top clearance must
not be underestimated.
When manoeuvring the machine, make sure that there are no persons in the
swivel range.
The winding machine is an operating device and driving or walking along it is
prohibited strictly under all circumstances.
When working on the device in the extended state, the hydraulic system must be
secured against accidental lifting or lowering; the power supply must be
interrupted and properly supported.
Carry out work on the hydraulic system only when it is in a lowered position.
Always depressurize the system. Never work on a system that is still under
pressure and always wear gloves.
Joints, hydraulic cylinders and plates pose an increased risk of crushing.
A safety distance of 20m must be observed!
Avoid using force when releasing and locking!

When using public roads or paths, the machine must be equipped in accordance
with traffic regulations.
This machine must be tested annually according to UVV guidelines.
A crane book shall be kept.
Work on public roads is prohibited.
Warning signs
Read and observe the operating and safety instructions.
Be careful in the swivel range.
Always keep a sufficient safe distance of 20m from other people.
3. Before first use
Before first use and after a short use, check that all the connections of your fleece
disk are firmly seated. This is important because connections are made during the
first hours of work and screw connections can loosen up under certain
circumstances.
Transport speed shall be reduced in case of poor road surfaces.
Excessive transport speeds cause a very high dynamic load, which shorten the life
of your device.
The hydraulic system is not filled with oil upon leaving the factory. Before first use,
therefore, it must be absolutely ensured that the hydraulic cylinder is
slowly actuated several times in both directions, until the pipe and the cylinders
are filled with oil.
3.1 Intended use
The fleece-winding machine is designed to roll and unroll fleece and films on beets
and other haystacks.
Use in sloping terrain over 5% is not permissible, as there is a risk of tipping over.
4. Operation
4.1 Attachment
The basic configuration of the device provides for its attachment to the rear
hydraulics of a tractor, which must have at least 150 hp and an empty weight of
8500 kg. In matching coupler parts, it must be ensured that unintentional loosening
of the connection is avoided, especially in fast couplers. Fastening of the
connection to the tractor ensures more security and ease of use. Side braces must
be rigid and the air pressure in the rear tires in the upper limit approved by the
manufacturer to prevent machine oscillation.
The slewing ring must be mounted horizontally.

4.2 Hydraulic connection
In the basic configuration, two control devices and a pressure-free return flow
are provided for the hydraulics. Hoses are appropriately marked.
One cable provides the pressure supply for the control block (continuous
pressure).
The pressure-free return flow to the tank must always be ensured, otherwise
control blocks may be damaged.
The thinner cable serves to unlock the clamp cylinder.
The excavator works with an electric proportional control, which enables several
functions simultaneously. Each function can be operated from very slow to fast. To
that end, we require the entire oil volume from the tractor, whereas the speed is
only changed via the joystick.
4.3 Transport and working position
On poor roads, the maximum transport speed must be significantly reduced due to
vibrational forces.
In order to ensure safe transport, the following procedure should be used: Lift
the device completely, retract it and secure against lowering.
For transportation on public roads, the excavator is completely raised, carefully
pivoted over the cabin, and placed on a support (not included in the delivery).

5. Maintenance
Refer to the maintenance plan of the company Ostler (in the annex).
In the winding spindle, bearings are fitted with 2 grease nipples. Moreover, the
drive chain must be lubricated and re-tensioned once a year.
The sprockets in the swivel head must be filled once a year with grease -access
from below.
The clamping cylinder should be filled only at the end of the season in the clamped
condition with grease to prevent internal rusting.
Before a long period of inactivity, the machine must be cleaned, preserved with
spray oil and the piston rods of the hydraulic cylinders greased.
The upper part of the piston rod in the main lift cylinder must be greased and
checked more often (due to salt used on roads).

7. Sugar beets- calmp maintenance
Arrangement of the clamp
Beets should be provided in removable and uniform stacks (no hilly profiles).
Place haystack on flat and passable surface with no furrows directly to the stack.
Clamp maintenance right after digging but before cultivation or ploughing.
For fleece attachment, it is best if the clamp is accessible with the tractor.
Adjust fleece length to that of clamp.
Covering of the clamp:
Stop at the clamp and park the trailer. Set up warning signs if possible.
Insert winding spindle into the tube and lock it. Take the fleece roll out of the trailer and roll the
fleece on the clamp. When driving with the tube, pay attention to the lines (telephone, power lines,
etc.). Driving with a tube on public roads is prohibited. When working with the boom, no one should
stay in the danger zone (20m).
Drag the unrolled fleece on both sides of the haystack up to its base. (Work of the second person).
Allow for fleece overlap upon long haystacks requiring more than one fleece elements.

Excess fleece lengths must be tucked under the calmp. There should be no fleece in mud or
puddles; in case of frost, it may tear when picked up.
Drive around the clamp with the "Klünder-disc" at ca. 20 cm height. The disc should push the
fleece at around 15 - 20cm into the haystack. Do not extend the disc while driving. Compensate
for the bulge of the haystack through steering. Observe the danger zone!
Uncovering the clamp:
Stop at the clamp and park the trailer. Set up warning signs if possible.
Take an empty tube out of the trailer with the mandrel. Observe the danger zone (20m).
Tubes are provided with a tappet (about 2cm round bar), which takes up the fleece when turning.
Two turns are required and the fleece is then pulled over the haystack in the opposite direction.
This loosens the fleece attachment. Now, the fleece is wound at the end of the haystack near the
ground and spread as evenly as possible along the length of the tube.

Stow away the wound fleece in the trailer.
If the fleece is covered with lots of snow or a lot of beets are frozen, the fleece must be detached
with a paddle (see picture).
The fleece is then pulled from the stack and left lying until it is thawed.
