Intended use Nelson SR 150 is factory-adjusted to Danish conditions and ready to use after the following three steps: Select and install the nozzle size that best suits your application. Performance data for the different sizes are shown in the table below.
Operating instructions Starting the GT5 1. Position the machine horizontally in line with the unwind direction. It is important that the machine is level. This can be adjusted with the support legs at the front and rear. 2. The ground must be level for the first 10 m of the unwind direction.
Page 8
5. Lower the two hydraulic support legs to the ground so they are firmly engaged. If the ground is very hard, it may be necessary to move them up and down a few times. (Warning!! The support legs must not raise the wheels of the machine from the ground.) 6.

Move the lever on the left hand side to unwind. See the photo below. Open the slide valve on the gun trailer to allow the water to flow freely from the hose during unwinding. It is important that the feed hose is not connected to the machine until the hose is fully unwound. To unwind, press the lever in the direction Before irrigation, move...
Setting up the Gun trailer REMEMBER when unwinding the hose to ensure that the gun trailer lift is adjusted correctly. Remember to make sure the machine is standing on firm ground, otherwise damage may occur to the gun trailer lift and machine. Connect the gun trailer to the tractor and start unwinding the hose.
The hose must be unwound until there are two to three turns left on the drum. Remove the hose guide chains and adjust the hose guide so the hose passing through the hose guide is against the hose already on the drum. (Contact the service department at Fasterholt Maskinfabrik A/S)
On gun trailer: 45 psi (3.3 bar) Preparation for winter Before the frost sets in, prepare the machine for winter. Contact Fasterholt Maskinfabrik A/S for a winter service inspection. This avoids unnecessary downtime during the season. Preparation includes the following points: Drain water from the machine and hose with compressed air.

MENU 3 PRESSURE SENSOR STOP SENSOR SPEED SENSOR MOT1 0.0 MOT2 1.8A PRESSURE SENSOR Shows that the pressure is high when block is lit. The machine can only move when the pressure is high. If no pressure sensor is fitted (machine data 14 = 0), the machine will move regardless of pressure status. The machine can be fitted with analogue pressure sensors.
MENU 4 CURR. SPEED 22m/h START 0:00 STOP 7:43 OPERATING HOURS 123h CURR. SPEED Shows the current speed. That is, the speed at which the machine is moving now. This can be used to find how fast the machine can move. The current speed may differ slightly from the set speed, especially at the start. This does not matter, as regulation ensures that the average speed within 10 metres is correct.

PRE-IRRIGATION: If pre-irrigation is required, press the PRE- key. The pre-irrigation time is calculated as 8 x the time to move 1 m at the current speed. The constant can be changed individually for pre- and post-irrigation. (See constants). If pre-irrigation is selected, the machine will move forward approx.

STATUS Status line in display **IRRIGATING** The machine has not started, but speed signals are being received and it is attempting to maintain the selected speed. IRRIGATING: The machine is irrigating and functions as intended. LOW PRESSURE: Water pressure is low. Individual action according to constants and machine data. STARTING: User has pressed the START key and start sequence is being performed.

There are a variety of constants that can be modified by the user. These constants will be stored for many years, even if the battery is removed. Programming procedure: Adjust the speed to 11.1 m/h to access the constants. Press the PROG key 3 times in quick succession to access and change the constants. Press the PROG key again to count forward to the constant you wish to change.

Program Rain can be set to 2 different types of sensors. See machine data no. 16 Sensor One is a round sensor with 4 built-in sensors and can only be used for rollers with 1 magnet. When the battery is connected, the display shows the following for 2 seconds: VERSION n.n0.
Page 29
Troubleshooting: The turbine does not start when the START key is pressed. Answer: The magnet at the stop sensor is not in position or the sensor or sensor cable is damaged. Stop sensor: The mark must be on when the magnet is in position and off when the magnet is removed. See Menu 3. A damaged cable can be assembled in an epoxy moulded assembly or with shrinkable tubing and glue.

Combining the various constants: The machine will always be able to run with the factory-set constants. However, there will be different conditions from farm to farm and from machine to machine. Many requests can be met by changing the constants. Slow start-up of turbine.
