Page 7 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Safety - General This section of the manual offers general guidelines for the safe operation of machinery. For the safety of others and yourself, please read and follow the precautions in this operator’s manual. - Page 8 Page 8 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Carry a suitable fire extinguisher.

- Page 10 Page 10 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Avoid tip-overs Run the machine along hillsides with the elevator on the high side of the hill. Avoid holes, ditches and obstructions which may cause the machine to tip over, especially on hillsides. Never drive near the edge of a gully or steep embankment - it might cave in.

Page 11 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Safety – Machine Specific The lists below are not all-inclusive and serve only to highlight the more obvious areas of risk. The labels attached to the machine are a general reminder that there are hazardous areas on the machine, rather than specifically highlighting all possible hazards. -
Page 12: Pre-Service Guidelines & Settings
Axle Mounting Bolt Recommended Torque Settings 180 ft/lbs or 245Nm THERE ARE SEVERAL GREASE POINTS on all Giltrap feeders. Check the yellow label on the side of your machine to see how many grease points there are. You should fully grease everything before running it... -
Page 13: Setup & Operating Instructions
Setup & Operating Instructions Hydraulic Requirements The RS2 Feeder requires two double acting hydraulic remotes. It is important to use the correct type of quick release coupling ends to suit your tractor couplings as some brands of couplings have different spring tension within the coupling which may impede full oil flow - it pays to check this. -
Page 14: Feeding Out
Page 14 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Feeding Out Set the tractor hydraulics so the machine is running at 25-30 litres per minute flow. 1. Ensure that all plastic wrapping, mesh and loose string has been removed. -
Page 15: Maintenance
Page 15 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Maintenance The Giltrap Bale Feeder is designed for minimal maintenance. Your Giltrap RS2 Feeder will give long and efficient service if given normal care and maintained properly. Lubrication The feed chains should be lubricated on a weekly basis to prolong operational lifespan. Giltrap Engineering recommends the use of food grade chain oil to avoid contamination of livestock feed. -
Page 16: Feed Chain Adjustment
Page 16 RS2 Feeder – Operator’s Manual & Parts Book Feed Chain Adjustment Check frequently and clean out any build up of debris between the chain links under feed bars. Straighten any bent feed bars and teeth. Feed chains should not require much adjustment; however, if this should become necessary adjust the chain until the slack has been minimised. -
