4.3 Available languages
The user interface for the operation of the MilkShuttle can be set to a variety of dif-
ferent languages. The number of available user languages is constantly increas-
ing. As of version 1.20 of the MilkShuttle firmware, not all available user
languages can be included in the firmware any more due to storage limitations.
This means that as of firmware version 1.20, MilkShuttle cannot be delivered with
all available languages included, only a subset of languages can be shipped with
a MilkShuttle. For that purpose, the available languages are grouped into regional
language packages.Each feeder is shipped with a firmware that contains exactly
one of these language packs. The following table offers an overview of the availa-
ble language packages A to C and E (status: Juli 2014):
You may switch over to another user language that is included in your language
package at any time (see chapter 7.1.2, page 44). If you would like to use a lan-
guage that resides inside a language package different from yours, you have to
replace the circuit board of your MilkShuttle. Please contact your service techni-
cian in this case. You may determine the version of the language package
installed on your MilkShuttle via the operating code (see chapter 8.3, page 68).

4.4.4 Drawbar handle
The drawbar handle controls the Milk Shuttle and pulls or pushes it. When the
drawbar handle is released it sinks onto the front wheel, thus acting as a brake.
When in sloping terrain, always push the Milk Shuttle and never pull it.
Information
To extract the feed, the lid closures of the feed container must be opened.
Otherwise, negative pressure could develop in the feed container which would
hamper the extraction.
To open the closures for the control housing you must first remove the cotter
pins.
CAUTION
Danger of material damage and personal injury!
The Milk Shuttle is only braked by the lowered drawbar handle.
Never fix the drawbar handle in a lifted position.
