contained
in
this
operating
manual
with
the
utmost
care
and
also
observe
all
warning

These
warning
signs
must be
kept
in
a legible
condition
and

or importer.
Follow
these
instructions
to

methods
which
may
be
hazardous.
PROPER
USE
Shelbourne
Reynolds
Cubiäle
Bedders
are
based
on
state-of-the-art
technology
and
are
manufactured
in
accordance
with
recognised
safety
requirements.
Nevertheless
the
use
of
the
Cubicle
Bedder
does
not
preclude the
risk
of
injury
to
the
user
or
third
parties
and
/
or
the
risk
of
damage
to
the
Cubicle
Bedder
itself
or
to
other materials
or
items
of
equipment.
Always
make
sure
that
the
Shelbourne
Reynolds
Cubicle
Bedder
is
in
a
technically
perfect
condition
and
that
it
is
used
properly
and
for
it’s
intended
purpose
and
entirely
in
accordance
with
the
instructions
given
in
this
manual.
Any
malfunctions
or
defects
which
might
affect
the
safe
operation
or
the
Cubicle

be
immediately eliminated.
The

must
be
used,
maintained
and repaired
only
by
persons
who
are
familiar
with
it’s

and
have
been made
fully
conversant
with
the
risks
involved.
OEM
replacement
parts
and
accessories
from
Shelbourne
Reynolds
have
been
specially
designed
for
use
with
the
Shelbourne
Reynolds
Cubicle
Bedder.
Any
replacement
parts
and
accessories
not
supplied
by
Shelbourne
Reynolds
have
not
been
tested
and
approved
by
us.
The
installation
and/or the
use
of
non-Shelbourne
Reynolds
products
may
under
certain
circumstances
have
a
negative
influence
on
the
given
design
features
of
your
machine and
may
therefore adversely
affect
it’s
safe
and
reliable
operation and
your
safety.
Shelbourne
Reynolds
cannot
therefore
be
held
liable
for
damage
or
injury
caused
by
the
use
of
non-OEM
replacement
parts
or
accessories.
The
Shelbourne
Reynolds
Cubicle
Bedder
is
intended
for
use
on
typical
farms
and
to
be
employed
in
distributing
bedding
material.
Any
uses
other
than
those
for
which
the
Cubicle
Bedder
is
intended,
such
as
transportation,
will
automatically
exempt
Shelbourne
Reynolds
or
the
supplier
from
it’s/his
liability
in
respect
of
ensuing
damage.
Such
cases
of
improper
use
will
therefore
be
entirely
at
the
user’s
own
risk.
All
relevant
accident
prevention regulations,
as
well
as
other
generally
acknowledged
health
and
safety
regulations and
road
traffic
regulations
must
be
strictly
observed.
Improper
use
also
comprises
failure
to
observe
the
instructions
given
in
this
operating
manual and
the manufacturer’s
maintenance
and
servicing
requirements.

combined
weight
of
the

the
heaviest
load
of
bedding
material
does
not
exceed
the
manufacturers
recommended
safe
loading
of
axle,
wheels
and
tyres.
10

Ensure
that
the
machine
is
parked
on
even
level
ground.
Slowly
drive
the
tractor
/
handler towards
the
Cubicle
Bedder
—
always
ensure
that
there are
no
other
persons
in
the
vicinity
of
the
machine

manufacturer approved bracket
in
the
manner
recommended
in
the

that
the system
is
at
zero
pressure
on
both

and
connections
must
therefore
be
checked
regularly
for

DESCRIPTION
The
machine
consists
of
a
tub
(a)
which
is
used
to
hold
the
bedding
material.
The
tub
is
fitted
to
the
tractor
I
handler
and
can either
be loaded
manually
or
used
to
scoop
up
bulk
material
if
fitted
with
a
hydraulic
top
link
(b)
or
loader
frame
(c).
Bolted
inside
the
tub
are
fill
in
sheets
(d)
which
alter
the
internal
shape
of
the
tub
Positioned
underneath the
tub
is
a
conveyor
(e)
which
is
driven
by
a
hydraulic
motor
and
is
used
to
discharge
the
bedding
material
to
either the
left
or
right
hand
side
of
the
machine.
A
horizontal rotating
agitator
(f)
is
used
to
loosen
the
bedding material
in
the
tub
ensuring that
the
material
flows
through
the
metering
plates
onto
the
conveyor.
The
metering
plates
(g)
consist
of
two
adjustable
slides
which
fit
inside
the
tub
and regulate
the
amount
of
material
which
flows
onto
the
belt
by
adjusting
the
gap
between
them.
On
the
side
of
the
tub
are
two
adjustable
side
plates
(h)
under
which
the
conveyor
passes.
The
machine
can
either
be
fitted
to
the
three
point
linkage
of
the
machine
using
a
standard
top
link
where
by
it
must
be loaded
manually
or
from
an
overhead
hopper.
Alternatively
a
hydraulic top
link
can
be
supplied
which
alters the
angle
of
the
tub
allowing
it
scoop
bedding
material
form
a
bulk
heap
on
the
floor.
A
loader frame can
also
be supplied
onto
which
the
correct
brackets
can be
fitted
this allows
the
Cubicle
Bedder
to
be
fitted
to
a
front
end
loader
or
handler

PREPARATION FOR
USE
5.1
CHECKS
All
assembly
work
and
pre
delivery
checks
should
have
been undertaken
by
your
dealer.
As
a
precaution,
before
using
check:
1
There
are
no
foreign
objects
in
the
tub
2
There
are
suitable
auxiliary
hydraulic
outlets
on
your
tractor
or
loader
3
The
correct
manufacturer
approved
brackets
have
been
fitted
in
a
suitable
manner
to
the loader
frame
(if
fitted)
5.2
ATTACHMENT TO
THE
TRACTOR
I
HANDLER
The
machine
is
provided
with
provision
for
it
to
be
carried
on
the
three-point
linkage
when
using a
standard
top
link
or
hydraulic
top
link.
Alternatively
the
Cubicle
Bedder
can
be
fitted
to
a
Handler
when
a
loader
frame
is
specified.
STANDARD
TOP
LINK
Reverse the
tractor
slowly
to
the
machine
and
connect
the
lower
links.
Adjust
the
top
link
length
to
enable
it
to
be
attached
to
the
machine.
Set
the
machine
at
the
desired
working
height
and
adjust
the
top
link
to
such
a
position
that
the
conveyor
is
parallel
with
the
ground.
Adjust
the
check
chains
so
that
there
is
no
sideways
sway and
the machine
sits
centrally
to
the
tractor.
There
are
multiple
hole
positions
for
both
the
lower
and
top
links
which
enable
the
machine
to
be
fitted
to
most
tractors,
ensure
the
correct
hole
positions
are
chosen
to
suit
the tractor
being
used.
Once
the machine
has
been
attached
and
the
linkage
adjusted,
the
two
hoses
for
the
conveyor and
agitator
drive
must be
connected
to
the tractor
auxiliary
hydraulic
outlet.
This
requires
one
double
acting
service
with
a
minimum
flow
of
30-35
litres/mm
at
125
bar
pressure.
HYDRAULIC
TOP
LINK
When
using
the
hydraulic
top
link
option
reverse
the
tractor
to
the
machine
in
the
usual
manner
and
attach
the
lower
links
to
the
lowest
set
of
holes
on
the
Cubicle
Bedder.
Attach
the
hydraulic
top
link
to
the
tractor,
the
bolted clevis
end
fits
onto
the
tractor.
Connect
the
cylinder
hydraulic
pipes
into
the
tractor
auxiliary
outlet,
ideally
this
requires
a
second
double
acting
service.
Extend
the
cylinder
to
locate
the
swivel
ball
end
close
to
the
top
link
position
hole
on
the
machine.
Adjust
the
swivel
end
accordingly
to
allow
the
top
link
pin
to
be
fitted,
fit
the
top
link
pin
and
spacers
and
adjust the
locking
collar
up
to
the
cylinder
rod.
Ensure
that
the
swivel
end
is
not
unwound
too far
and
at
least
50
mm
of
thread
is
still
within
the
cylinder.
