Start-up Unpacking Required tools: Knife / cutter CAUTION The "Milk Shuttle" must be lifted to be unpacked. Therefore, always include a second person to help unpack. CAUTION Figure 5/1: Unpacking Carry out the following steps to unpack: 1. Carefully cut the packaging foil and remove it. 2.
Start-up ➊ 6. Lift the "Milk Shuttle" by the drawbar so that the transport block under the ➋ feed container can be removed. 7. Adjust the drawbar handle as described in chapter 5.4. CAUTION Before moving the Milk Shuttle, familiarize yourself with the operation of the con- trollers (chapter 6.5).
Start-up Electrical connection 5.5.1 Requirements The electrical connection must be • secured by a separate fuse (16 A), • protected by a residual current circuit breaker (Fl, 30 mA), • and be wired as per IEC 60364-7-705. In case of an operating voltage of 400 V, assure the clockwise phase sequence of your rotary field (see chapter 5.5.2, page 25).
Start-up 5.5.2 Connecting to the power supply To connect the device, you will need a connecting cable with the appropriate plug connectors (CEE blue or red, not included). CAUTION There may be no rolled-up cable reel in the supply lead. Fire hazard! CAUTION 1.

MilkShuttle‘s display (Fault 60 - No mains voltage). Figure 5/4: Neutral line warning sign on connecting cable Information The protective mechanism also prevents the start up of the MilkShuttle in case of an anti-clockwise phase sequence of the rotary field. Therefore, the fault mess- INFO sage No Mains voltage (fault code 60) may be caused either by a missing neutral wire (N) or by the anti-clockwise phase sequence of the rotary field.
Start-up Figure 5/5: Phase changing switch of the connecting cable (CEE) Wash for first start-up When delivered, there is a small amount of antifreeze agent in the pump. Before filling the Milk Shuttle with calf milk replacer (CMR) or whole milk for the first time, the device must be washed with approx.
Operation Operation WARNING Shutting down the device in case of frost. • Devices without dosing unit WARNING It is permitted to shut down the device when temperatures drop below 0°C. The drain valve (see figure 6/2 on page 34) must be open. Devices with dosing unit It is not permitted to shut down the device when temperatures drop below 0°C.
How to adjust these values to your requirements is given in chapter 7.3, page 49. The function Heating/Agitating only works on mains operation. If your MilkShuttle is running on battery power only (no mains supply), this function is not available.
