3.5 Conversions or modifications
In the event of unauthorised conversions and modifications to the unit, any liability and warranty on the part of the manufacturer will be rendered
void. Conversions and modifications may only be carried out with the written consent of the manufacturer.
4. Assembly and commissioning
Danger!
• The machine must always be secured against falling or toppling over while being installed – risk of fatal injury!
• Place a retaining strap through the joint piece and secure it with a lifting device!
• Do not mount the drive and brush unit until the suspension arm is securely mounted.
• Never reach between the joint piece during assembly.
4.1 Scope of delivery
The unit is delivered on a pallet. The brush unit is already assembled ready for use. The suspension arm is attached separately to the pallet. The
axle bolt for the bearing directly below the suspension arm is pre-assembled on the suspension arm and must be dismantled to assemble the
drive and brush unit!
4.2 Checks before commissioning
Before commissioning the unit, it must always be checked for completeness, visible defects or sources of danger.
The following checking measures should be carried out:
• Check the unit for loose or hanging parts or damage sustained during transport.
4.3 Installation
The best possible positioning and stable securing is particularly important for ensuring the problem-free operation of this heavy-duty unit.
The following must be noted:
• Do not set up the unit in a confined space in the pen.
• To avoid backlogs, do not set up the unit directly before or after the milking station.
• Do not set up the machine in proximity to equipment that is sensitive to dust.
• Mount the unit on a firm, stable and level surface.
• With brick walls, a large, compression-resistant underlay is recommended.
• The unit must be connected to the wall through all 4 mounting holes of the suspension arm.
• Fixing material must be matched to the substrate by competent personnel.
• Heavy duty anchors or adhesive anchors are recommended for concrete walls.
• When mounting on brick or wood, continuous threaded rods are recommended.
• Use at least thread size M12.
• Secure the screw connection against self-loosening. Use self-locking nuts and/or threadlocker for this purpose.
• Check attachments regularly and re-tighten if necessary.
• Only mount the unit with a suitable lifting device.
• Observe applicable accident prevention regulations!
Tip
Secure the unit to an even, solid concrete wall.
4.3.1 Installation height
The suspension height of the unit must be adapted to the average withers height of the animals. The top edge of the brush roller itself should be
approx. 100 - 200 mm above the average withers height. The suspension height must be determined before the mounting holes are made!
If there are considerable differences in withers height among the herd (more than 20 cm), the suspension height should be orientated towards
the larger animals in order to avoid rapid wear of the brushes.
