3. Important information about your safety
The Respire pick-up belt rake is designed and built according to recognised safety
regulations. Risks can nevertheless arise during use. The following safety instructions and the
special warnings in the individual chapters must be complied with for this reason.
3.1. Intended use
exclusively for typical use in agricultural work.
for raking various types of harvest forage.
in compliance with the prescribed maintenance and repair work.
Any non-agricultural use is prohibited
3.2. Target group
Qualified personnel, specialist agricultural workers
Non-specialists, auxiliary staff
Trainees, interns under supervision

Page 11
4. Product description
The harvest forage is picked up from the ground by the pick-up (1). The swath roller (2)
presses the harvest forage against the pick-up and guides the flow of material to the rotor
(3). The driven rotor conveys the harvest forage evenly on to the conveyor belt (4). The
harvest forage can be deposited by the conveyor belt on either the left or the right of the
machine.
The machine’s drive is hydraulic. No front PTO shaft is required.
4.1. Respiro R3 compact
Attachment rocker (1) with rubber buffers (2) for self-centring the work unit. Shackle (3) for
