INTRODUCTION
PRESENTATION
Thank you for purchasing the Terrateck RJP 80M harvester. We hope that this machine will bring you complete satisfaction thanks to its
user-friendly features and manoeuvrability.
The Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester is designed for occasionally harvesting babyleaf crops, i.e. the various multicut salads (mesclun,
purslane, spinach).
Equipped with an 80cm wide cutter bar, this babyleaf harvester cuts the plants cleanly and precisely. The cutter bar and pick-up reel
height are adjustable according to the height of the vegetation in order to comply with the different harvesting standards.
Designed and assembled in our workshop, the babyleaf harvester is a lightweight manoeuvrable tool.
The Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester meets the requirements of producers in terms of speed and consistent cutting quality. By
mechanising the harvesting process, our RJP 80M babyleaf harvester can cover 30 metres in 120 seconds.
Thanks to its electric motor, the Terrateck RJP 80M babyleaf harvester complies with environmental standards by eliminating the harmful
exhaust gases that would be discharged from a combustion engine in a conned environment (production greenhouses).
This user manual provides the information you need to use and maintain your harvester safely and correctly.
This manual contains the following information:
• Safety instructions for using this machine safely,
• Operating instructions for ensuring the best possible occupational standards for the best possible yield,
