General - Bauer Magnum S Operating Manual

Hand-operated devices (valves)
1. Because of the slurry gasses produced in the lines, no slurry is allowed to remain in closed pipelines –
bursting hazard!
2. Lay the pipelines with sufficient inclination and make sure that the selected closing order of valves allows all
lines to be drained completely!
3. Protect the valves against unauthorised handling!
4. If a valve gets jammed do not apply force! Use only the operating levers supplied with the implement!
5. Observe the permissible maximum operating pressure of valves and pipelines when pumps are operated!
6. Service only when the tanks are empty!
Maintenance
1. Never perform any maintenance, service or cleaning work or fault elimination steps unless the drive is
turned off and the engine is standing still!
2. Check proper fit of all nuts and bolts regularly and tighten them, if necessary.
3. If maintenance work is required on the lifted machine always secure it by means of appropriate supports!
4. When exchanging tools with cutting edges always use proper tools and wear safe protective gloves.
5. Dispose of oil, grease and filters according to local laws and regulations!
6. Always turn off power before working on the electric system!
7. Before electric welding on the tractor and mounted machines the generator and battery cables must be
disconnected!
8. Spare parts must meet manufacturer's minimum technical specifications! This is the case for instance with
original spare parts for instance!

2 GENERAL

BAUER products are designed and manufactured carefully and subject to a system of continuous quality
control. MAGNUM slurry pumps fully meet the requirements of the agricultural practice. They are best suited
for delivering all kinds of slurries from thin liquid manure to viscous mixtures containing solids such as straw,
fibres or clots. A special chopper guarantees trouble-free performance without blockages. Short set-up times,
easy handling and maximum performance reliability are further advantages of this pump series. Pump drive is
electric by means of a three-phase submersible motor.
In order to be able to work efficiently with the maintenance-friendly submersible motor pump it is helpful to
operate it in connection with a lift pole or transport trolley.
Depending on the respective type of application, you can use either the lift pole alone, or the lift pole with
coupling foot and rising main.
Although the pump is simple in design you should study this manual carefully and strictly observe all operating
and service instructions contained. On this condition your slurry pump will operate to your full satisfaction for
many years!
Make this manual available to all operators handling the equipment. Serial number and pump type are stamped
in on the nameplate. Please specify these data in your inquiries, correspondence, warranty matters and parts
orders. We warrant for this pump according to our General Terms of Sale.
