If the noise in the work space exceeds 85dB, always
wear hearing protection.
7. Use covers
Do not make changes to the covers or turn on the
machine when a cover is missing.
8. Risk of crushing
Never stand between a tractor and a fodder wagon
while they are being connected.
9. Risk of cutting or severing fingers
Never insert your hands under the covers.
Beware of counter blades and loading shutter.
10. Speed limit
For safety reasons do not exceed 8km/h.
4. TRACTOR SELECTION
Always follow the guidelines set in tractor’s manual. Contact the manufacturer if it is not
possible. Select a tractor of adequate power. Avoid tractors with electrically connected power take-
off. A tractor has to have adequate unladen mass to provide fluid ride on various surface conditions.
To drive the fodder wagon, a tractor of following parameters is required:
− 45kW for Power take-off at400rpm,
− Maximum power for reduction gear 1:1 /1:1.88 is 85 HP,
− At least one simple hydraulic system: power supply and return,
− Minimal hydraulic system efficiency: 35l/min oilat 540rpm,
− Electric installation at least 11V,measured on the machine, in all possible conditions.
Please note that power requirements are just a general guideline for your information. Power
required depends mainly on the quality of mixed fodder as well as the number of mixing paddles.
4.1. CONNECTING AND DISCONNECTING
 Make sure that no one stands between the machine and a tractor while connecting or
disconnecting. Unintended maneuver by machine’s driver may cause danger for people
located in there.
 Check if the value and the direction of revolutions of tractor’s input shaft are adequate to the
parameters envisioned for the machine. Incorrectly chosen value of rotational speed, in a
long run, may cause damage to the machine or end up throwing its parts out.

Instruction manual Fodder wagons OptiFEED

 Make sure that the power take-off is connected properly. That means the shear pin has been
put on and restraining device has been mounted from both sides.
 Power take-off has to be properly secured. If the cover is damaged it should be replaced
immediately.
 Hydraulic hoses have to be checked before first use. Then they shall be subject to periodic
inspection once a year. If necessary, they have to be replaced. Working duration of
hydraulic hoses is 6 years, including up to 2 years of storage. Always replace hydraulic
hoses with those that fulfill manufacturer’s expectations. All hydraulic hoses are stamped
with date of production.
 Before turning the hydraulic system on, make sure that the hydraulic clutch is connected and
the cords or juncture are not damaged.
 After the engine is turned on, turn on tractor’s hydraulic valves to make sure that there is no
pressure in hydraulic hoses. Hydraulic fluid under pressure may penetrate the skin and cause
serious infection. Always protect the skin and eyes from hydraulic fluid. If you are hit by the
pressurized fluid, see the doctor immediately.
 Before connecting hydraulic system make sure that the mixing rotor, unloading cover and
fodder feeder are not blocked.
 Make sure that no one is near the machine while it is being turned on. If there is air in
hydraulic system, it may cause the machine to move unexpectedly.
4.2. SECURING THE MACHINE
It is essential for the motor not to be overloaded. This is why the power take-off is secured
by a shear pin. Under no circumstances use pins of other dimensions or qualities than of those of the
type mounted. Never clean parts of weight control system or display with pressurized water. Do not
use large amounts of fodder from long straw. Always add it in low quantities. You should not use
more than 250kg of long straw fodder for one mixing process.
5. THE CONSTRUCTION OF FODDER WAGON
Fodder wagon is equipped in electronic weighing machine which allows for precise
measurement of components from which the dose is made out of. Auger with blades guarantees
quick and total mixing of all fodder components. Ring preventing unloading, located on the top of
the container, prevents fodder from leaking out during mixing process.

5.1. COUNTERBLADES
Mixing chamber is equipped in two counter blades which are located cornerwise to the
auger’s axle. Counter blades can beextended in the mixing chamber only when cutting ingredients
of 10cm and longer, such as hay or straw. Cutting long materials into TMR is done separately,
before other ingredients are mixed together. Extended counter blades hold longer ingredients, which
then spin around with the auger. The blades on the auger can then easily cut them. Do not extend
the counter blade to mix short ingredients, crops or when the ingredients are damp.
Counter blades can be set in three different positions:
•Hidden completely (they do not extend in the mixing chamber),
•2 positions in between,
•Fully extended in the mixing chamber.
Counter blades always have to be set in desirable position by using a bolt (Fig. 3). The bolt
has to be always secured by a pin shaped in a letter R.

5.2. AUGER
There are blades on the auger, each of them mounted by three screws. The base in the lower
part of the blade is used to strengthen it.
The machine achieves high mixing standards thanks to the better use of volume and
optimized flow of materials. Thanks to the cone-like shape, silage bales land in deeper. There they
are being cut by larger amount of blades and are quickly shredded. Optimized auger’s shape
supports mixing in two directions – vertical and horizontal. Thanks to the auger’s cone-like shape, it
is possible to get homogeneous blends, even in small amounts of fodder. On top of that, unloading
of the machine and even distribution of fodder is guaranteed. Additional gathering arm supports this
process.
