• Disconnect the drive shaft each time when it is not necessary to drive the
machine, or when the tractor and mixer feeder are at an unsuitable angle to each
other.

2.1.6 CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

• Maintenance and repair works may be performed after hitching the mixer feeder
to the tractor. In such a case, switch off the tractor engine, remove the key from
the ignition and immobilise the tractor with parking brake. Ensure that
unauthorised persons do not have access to the tractor cab. Protect the machine
against rolling by placing blocking chocks under the wheels. Disconnect the PTO
shaft from the tractor before entering the mixer feeder tank. When performing
works that do not require hitching to tractor, position the mixer feeder on level and
hard surface, support it using a parking stand and protect it against rolling by
placing chocks under the wheels. Place of work should be dry, clean and well-
lighted.
• Regularly check the condition of the bolt and nut connections.
• During the warranty period, any repairs may only be carried out by the Warranty
Service authorised by the Manufacturer. After the expiry of the warranty period it
is recommended that possible repairs to the machine be performed by specialised
workshops.
• During work use the proper, close-fitting protective clothing, gloves, protective
goggles and appropriate tools.
• In the event of any fault or damage, do not use the machine until the fault has
been corrected.
• Servicing and repair work should be carried out in line with the general principles
of workplace health and safety. In the event of injury, the wound must be
immediately cleaned and disinfected. In the event of more serious injuries, seek a
doctor's advice.
• Service inspections of the mixer feeder should be carried out according to the
frequency specified in this Operator's Manual.
