4 Operation E-CLICK
4.1 Prepare the control unit
Requirements:
The control unit is connected properly to the mineral fertiliser spreader and
the tractor (see chapter 3.3: Connecting the control unit, page 14).
A minimum voltage of 11 V is guaranteed.
NOTICE
The control unit E-CLICK is ready to operate once it is connected to the on-
board power supply of your tractor. Separate activation is not required!
n CAUTION
Risk of injury caused by ejected fertiliser
In the event of faults, the metering slide could open unexpectedly
en route to the spreading location. There is a danger of people
slipping on the discharged fertiliser and injuring themselves.
Before driving to the spreading location, the control unit
E-CLICK must be disconnected from the on-board power
supply!

Operation E-CLICK4
18
4.2 Switching positions of the toggle switches
Opening and closing the metering slides while spreading is controlled by means
of 2 toggle switches on the control E-CLICK unit.
In order that the actuator motors are not overloaded, the actuators are switched
off automatically when moving against a blockade.
Figure 4.1: Toggle switch position and switching state
[1] OPEN (I)
[2] Neutral
[3] CLOSE (0)
Switching state OPEN, the metering slide opens.
Switching state Neutral, actuator control is switched off.
Switching state CLOSE, the metering slide closes.
NOTICE
Requirements for spreading with the control unit E-CLICK: The slider openings
on the mineral fertiliser spreader are set properly!
NOTICE
The toggle switches have 3 locking switching positions. The required
switching state is set by operating the toggle switches.
NOTICE
Switching the toggle switch to the Neutral position stops the respective
metering slide being opened or closed at any time!
