1 INTRODUCTION
The LELY COSMIX P Concentrate Feeder supplies an exact portion of extra
feed for cows to realize their maximum milk production. The feed
portion can be a mixture of up to four different types of concentrates.
An electronic tag on each cow enables the system to identify the cow via
a unique number. There are four identification systems available:
•Qwes IR
•Qwes LD
•Qwes ISO
•Qwes ISO LD
The T4C (Time for Cows) farm management software has information
about each cow and adjusts the used quantity and mixture of the feed
based on this information.
In combination with the Astronaut milking robot a closed system of
milking and allocation of concentrates can be created.
The information in this manual is for farmers and technicians.
•Farmers use the information to test and adjust the concentrate feeder
or to list overviews.
•Technicians use the information to install and setup the concentrate
feeder.

guidelines:
Danger: indicates an imminently hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious
injury.
Warning: indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury, and includes
hazards that are exposed when guards are removed.
Caution: indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury or product or property damage.
Note: this shows extra information that may help the reader.

program. Make sure EVERYONE who operates, maintains or works near
the concentrate feeder obeys the safety precautions. Do not risk injury or
death by ignoring good safety practices.
•COSMIX P owners must train operators before they operate the
concentrate feeder. This training must be repeated at least annually
•The operator must read, understand and obey all safety and operating
instructions in the manual
•A person who has not read and understood all safety and operating
instructions is not permitted to operate the concentrate feeder
•Do not modify the equipment in any way. Unauthorized modification
may impair the function and/or safety and could affect the life of the
equipment, and persons
•Only use approved spare parts, and make sure they are only installed
by authorized technicians.
2.3.1 General Safety
•Read and understand the manual and all safety signs before you

feeder.
•Only trained persons are permitted to operate the concentrate feeder.
•A first-aid kit must be available near the concentrate feeder. Store in a
highly visible place.
•A carbon dioxide or foam fire extinguisher must be available near the
concentrate feeder. Store the fire extinguisher in a highly visible place
•Install all protective covers and guards before you operate the
concentrate feeder.
•Wear the correct protective clothing and equipment.
•Disconnect and isolate the electrical power supply, release pneumatic
pressure and wait for all moving parts to stop before you clean or do
