2. Operating the SuperVario®X
2.1 Mounting the frame
The SuperVario®X can be screwed on directly or an auxiliary bracket can be
used.
Mounting holes have been provided on the back of the frame.
The delivery height can be found in the spreading tables (1.00 - 1.30 m).
The SuperVario®X can be attached on the front or rear of the tractor, off-road
vehicle, ATV or soil cultivation equipment. Because a full hopper makes the
SuperVario®X considerably heavier, the load capacity of platform gates and
other consoles must be checked.
