in n o vato rs in ag ric u ltu re Description and Operation Component Description The machine has the following parts (see figure 2 on page 4-1): Frame. • Cover with box. • Motor housing. • Brush shaft. • Brush.
in n o vato rs in ag ric u ltu re Operation When the machine is in rest, the machine is in a vertical position. When a cow moves the motor housing, the motor starts to rotate the brush (see figure 3 on page 4-2). Two inductive sensors monitor the movement of the brush and engage the motor.
in n o vato rs in ag ric u ltu re The brush has a free rotating axle when unpowered. This helps the cow to easily pull his tail from the brush when its blocked. Make sure cows who use the machine have no loose neck straps, ropes and so on.

in n o vato rs in ag ric u ltu re Bending Risk M12 Cables Ensure a sufficient bending radius. This is important because a greater bending radius will better absorb energy that results from cable movement. In fixed installations (see figure 27 on page 8-4), the minimum bending radius is 5 times the diameter. For flexible/moveable installations (see figure 28 on page 8-5) a minimum of 10 times the diameter is recommended.
in n o vato rs in ag ric u ltu re Figure 28. Flexible/moveable installation KEY: 1. R = Minimum radius A sufficient cable loop at the connection point can prevent the cable jacket and inner conductors from stress and premature wear. Examine and/or replace the Seal of the female M12 Connector The seal of the female M12 connector must be clean to guarantee the IP65 class.
