Krm m2w problem

[milton-95]

Keep getting this message flash up

Had a look under spreader but can see any plugs to take apart to check without taking boxes etc to bits , doesn't seem to be counting the area properly assume it's to do with this error too ?

Anyone had this before and found the problem?

Check all your connections and dry, even use a hot air blower or hair drier to make sure. Also leave connected and run tractor for 30mins often settles down.

They were given wd40 before being connected, could that be the problem?

I get it, usually after a heap of acres and there is dust everywhere. Give all the linkages under the hopper a good clean and spray with some oil.

Only 20 acre when it started but will check all linkages and make sure everything is free , thanks.

As above linkages will have got stiffened up. Free them off

We have one with the same problem & have never got to bottom of why it does it, will be interesting you can sort it .

Took the linkages off the shutters and the round bar that connects the shutters to the actuator was a bit stiff, could move it by hand but only just , sprayed wd40 into the black plastic bushes round it and took off the bushes I could get to and cleaned them up, moving freer now but won't know if it's sorted it as we're finished with it for this year.

If I get time I might take the bar off completely to clean it up but that means taking off the actuator and the brackets that Hold it on too.

Wish I was finished with our fert spreader for the year!

We'll still have some second cut fert and top up grazing fert to put on but we've an old centerliner for that, nice and simple and no control boxes to complicate the job

So why do you need the krm?

So why do you need the krm?

Because dad wanted something more accurate with weight cells etc for the cropping and the first cut silage, he did advertise the centerline but never sold so we kept a hold of it and it's just handy for the small amount of second cut and the topping up of grazing.

 

[milton-95]

Should the middle icon on the lowest bar of the screen be lit up when spreading? Can't get it to spread the right amount and I think it's not adjusting it's self to the right amount.

This is a great idea.
The livestock guys struggle with control box on my kuhn.

Something basic would be ideal.

Yes the auto weigher isn't turned on press and hold the button with the 2 hoppers on the bottom Left hand side on your photo and the icon should light up

Something so simple, thank you

Did you get to the bottom of your over current problem after @milton-95 ?

Yeah , gave the bar that works the actuators a good spray in wd40 / chain oil, ( the one running through the black plastic collars ), and freed them off best I could without taking them off.

Seems to have helped anyway , does still occasionally do it.
