 Check the compatibility of the hydraulic oils before connecting

the machine to the hydraulic system of your tractor. For details about checking the compatibility of the hydraulic oils, contact your agricultural machinery dealer if necessary.

 Do not mix mineral oils with bio oils.

Depending on their function, the hydraulic components can be connected to:

 a double-acting control device,

 a single-acting control device and a depressurised return line

leading directly into the hydraulic oil tank of the tractor.

Given a free choice, we recommend a single-acting control device and a depressurised return line. The hydraulic oil flows back into the hydraulic oil tank of the tractor through the free return line with a low back pressure. Thus, a free return line reduces heating-up of the hydraulic oil.

The hydraulic hose pipes are marked by colours at the hydraulic plugs, see chapter „Marking of hydraulic supply lines“, page 17.

Observe the information in the chapter "Basic safety instructions", page 30.

The pick-up (1) is movably hinged to the CFS drum and picks up the material to be loaded from the swathe by means of its 6 tine rows.

Lifting and lowering of the pick-up to transport and working position is effected via the control system from the tractor seat by means of two single-acting hydraulic cylinders.

The steerable, rubber-tyred roller feelers (2) move the pick-up into its working position. The roller feelers serve to:

 adapt the pick-up in working position to

uneven terrain.

 set different operating heights for the pick-

up lowered to working position. The operating height is set via the respective perforated strut (3) on both sides of the pick-up.

The pick-up can be equipped with the additional roller feelers (4) (optional extra). The additional roller feelers run outside the track of the tractor thus assisting the roller feelers in guiding the pick-up in working position on particularly soft ground.

Dangerous spots exist within the area of the pick-up due to functional reasons.

Fig. 12

Fig. 13

5 Design and function

The following chapter provides information about the design of the machine, its function and the handling of the individual components.

Some of the machines are illustrated with optional extras. Optional extras are marked in these operating instructions and are available at extra cost.

5.1 Pick-up

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

The pick-up is driven by means of the feeder rotor via the angular switchgear (1) and the angular gear CFS (2).

The friction clutch (2) protects the powertrain leading to the pick-up against damage in case of overload and temporary torque peaks at the pickup.

Fig. 14

The pick-up and the dosing drums are driven by means of the feeder rotor via the angular switchgear (1), the angular gear CFS (2) and the rear angular gear.

The clutches (3, 4) of the angular switchgear are coupled with the hydraulic cylinders of the tailgate via the hydraulic cylinders (5, 6). When opening and closing the tailgate:

 the hydraulic cylinder (5) actuates the clutch

(3) and engages or disengages the powertrain (7) leading to the dosing drums.

 the hydraulic cylinder (6) actuates the clutch

(4) and engages or disengages the powertrain (8) leading to the pick-up.

The friction clutch (9) protects the powertrain leading to the pick-up against damage in case of overload and temporary torque peaks at the pickup.

Actuate switch (1) at the hydraulics protective device to switch the pump on or off.

Power supply: 12 V

Maximum current: 3 A

Observe the information in the chapter "Switch cargo space lighting on/off", page 126.

WARNING

Risk of being drawn in and becoming entangled by the powered pick-up!

Never use the machine without holding-down device with pulley (1), as holding-down-device and pulley also serve as a protective device.

5.1.2 Silage additive pump

Optional extra

The drive of the silage additive pump is connected with the open-centre position of the pick-up via the control system.

If the pick-up is switched to open-centre position with the control system switched on, the silage additive pump sprays silage additives.

The open-centre position of the pick-up must be switched off at the control set to interrupt the spraying of silage additives, in order to possibly reduce the dosage of the silage additive.

Easy-to-use control

ISOBUS control

Switch on silage additive pump

1. Press and hold the Lighting cargo space key once.

 The silage additive pump is switched on.

Switch off silage additive pump

1. Press and hold the Lighting cargo space key once again.

 The silage additive pump is switched off.

5.1.3 Holding-down device with pulley

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

When picking up the material to be loaded, the holding-down device and the advancing pulley (1) press the material against the spring-loaded tines of the pick-up. The distance set between the holding-down device/pulley and the pick-up is vital for proper picking-up of the material from the swathe.

The length of the chains (2) determines the distance between holding-down device/pulley and pick-up:

 large swathe = large distance between

holding-down device/pulley and pick-up

 small swathe = small distance between

holding-down device/pulley and pick-up

Fig. 16

The feeder rotor (1) interacts with the cutting unit (2) and transports the material picked up by the pick-up (3) through the conveyor duct into the cargo space. The CFS drum (4) conveys the picked-up material into the outer parts of the feeder rotor which are subject to less strain, thus distributing the strain over the entire width of the feeder rotor and the cutting unit.

Strippers (5) protrude into the gaps between the conveying tines (6) of the feeder rotor thus preventing the feeder rotor from becoming clogged.

Fig. 17

5.2 Feeder rotor

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

The cutting unit (1) engages into the conveyor duct (2). The cutting unit can be extended into and retracted from the conveyor duct by means of two double-acting hydraulic cylinders (3) actuated via the control set:

 for elimination of blockages,

 for return of cutting knives evaded to the

rear to their original position,

 for removal and installation of cutting

knives.

The number of cutting knives (4) mounted in the cutting unit determines the cutting length of the loaded material. 36 cutting knives can be mounted. The shortest theoretical cutting length is then 39 mm.

Fig. 18

Blunt cutting knives (1) can be turned over once. Thus, the grinding interval doubles.

Each individual cutting knife is able to evade foreign objects. If a cutting knife encounters a foreign object, it will evade to the rear and remain in that position. This knife security system protects the cutting knives against damage.

In order to return the cutting knife to its working position, the cutting unit must be completely retracted and extended once.

Fig. 19

The knife bag (1) for unused cutting knives or spare cutting knives is positioned at the righthand front of the axle support close to the parking brake.

Fig. 20

5.3 Cutting unit

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

The sensor (1) monitors the position of the cutting unit.

A light barrier monitors the position of the individual cutting knives and the soiling degree of the cutting unit. The light barrier consists of the transmitter (2) and the receiver (3).

The following positions of the "Cutting Unit" symbol are available on the control set:

 "Cutting unit extended" position if the cutting

unit has been completely extended into the conveyor duct.

 "Cutting unit retracted" position if the cutting

unit has not been extended into the conveyor duct.

 "Cutting knife out" position:

 as soon as a cutting knife evades to

the rear,

 as soon as the cutting unit is heavily

soiled.

Fig. 21

The chains (1) of the transport floor are equipped with U-sections (2) and ensure consistent feeding of the loaded material when charging and discharging. Automatic chain tensioners tighten the chains.

The transport floor is driven hydraulically via two feed gearings.

The control set serves to:

 switch the transport floor on and off,

 variably adjust the feed rate of the transport

floor. The controllable volume flow of the hydraulic oil is 2-80 l/min.

 reverse the feed direction of the transport

floor for a short time (max. 3 seconds), e. g. to eliminate blockages occurred at the dosing drums during discharge.

The feed rate of the transport floor depends on the set filling degree. Observe the information in the chapter "Pre-select filling degree of loaded material in cargo space", page 136.

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

Switch the automatic charging system on for uniform and complete filling of the cargo space.

The automatic charging system:

● has to be switched on only once,

● automatically switches the transport floor on and off during charging,

● is automatically deactivated if the easy-to-use control set generates an acoustic signal (horn sound) and a visual signal ("Forage wagon full"),

● is automatically activated if the forage wagon has been emptied and the pick-up is lowered the next time,

● remains switched on until the automatic charging system is manually switched off.

The automatic charging system only works with the pick-up lowered.

The automatic charging system:

● is mounted at the load-protection bars and mainly consists of the sensing band (1), the gear shifting gate (2) and the limit switch (3),

● is connected with the hydraulic drive of the transport floor in ON mode,

During charging, the loaded material piles up at the front panel of the cargo space. If the loaded material piling up deflects the sensing band (1) upwards, the hydraulic drive of the transport floor starts and conveys the loaded material backwards. The transport floor stops as soon as the loaded material does not deflect the sensing band (1) upwards any more.

The position of the gear shifting gate (2) with respect to the sensing band (1) determines the switch-on behaviour for the transport floor. The gear shifting gate (2) can be fixed to the sensing band (1) in different positions, in order to change the filling degree of the cargo space.

Low filling degree = smaller deflection of sensing band

High filling degree = larger deflection of sensing band

● Sensing band in upper switch position

→ The automatic charging system is switched on.

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

The automatic charging system (1):

 can be switched on and off via the ISOBUS

control set,

 mainly consists of the sensing band (2), the

actuating plug (3) and the control dial (4),

 switches the transport floor automatically on

and off for uniform and complete filling of the cargo space,

 permits to adapt the filling degree of the

loaded material in the cargo space in 5% steps.

Fig. 24

The higher the set filling degree, the higher the transport floor feed rate and the smaller the filling capacity.

5.5.2 ISOBUS control of automatic charging system

When using the machine as a forage wagon, the loaded material piles up at the front grating of the cargo space during charging. The loaded material piling up deflects the sensing band upwards and actuates the control dial via the actuating plug.

As soon as the deflected sensing band reaches the lowest set position, the transport floor automatically starts running at low feed rate and conveys the loaded material to the back. Increasing filling of the front section of the cargo space initiates a further deflection of the sensing band. The feed rate of the transport floor increases in proportion to the deflection of the sensing band.

As soon as the deflected sensing band reaches the highest set position, the loaded material is conveyed to the back at maximum feed rate. The transport floor stops as soon as the front section in the cargo space has been cleared and the loaded material does not deflect the sensing band upwards any more.

A calibration of the automatic charging system helps to separately set the lowest position of the sensing band for switching the transport floor on and off and the highest position of the sensing band to switch over to maximum feed rate. Observe the information in the chapter "Calibrate automatic charging system", page 136.

5.5.3 Deactivate automatic charging system and stop transport floor

Machine without dosing drums

An electrical pressure switch as signal generator for the automatic charging system is mounted on the inside of the tailgate. If the machine is fully charged:

 the ISOBUS control set will generate an acoustic signal (horn sound) and a visual signal "Forage

wagon full".

 the automatic charging system will be deactivated and the automatic feed function for the

transport floor will be switched off.

Machine with dosing drums

The bottom dosing drum will evade to the rear if the loaded material applies a particular pressure to this dosing drum. The switching plate releases an electrical pressure switch and disconnects the automatic charging system and the hydraulic drive of the transport floor. The control set simultaneously displays the message "Forage wagon full".

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

When lifting the tailgate, the hydraulic cylinders first vertically lift the tailgate out of its locking mechanism. The tailgate then swivels upwards to the rear and raises completely.

When lowering the tailgate, it initially comes down due to its dead weight. The hydraulic cylinders only come into operation at the last moment to close the tailgate and lower it vertically onto the locking pin for being locked.

An electrical pressure switch as signal generator for the automatic charging system is mounted on the inside of the tailgate.

Fig. 25

When opening the tailgate, the hydraulic cylinders (1) swivel the tailgate (2) back upwards. The tailgate can then be opened at different opening widths.

The first opening width of the tailgate (discharge position) can be individually set via the control set and the tailgate is automatically moved to that position when pressing the Lift tailgate key. When releasing and pressing the Lift tailgate key again, the tailgate rises as long as the key is pressed or until the tailgate has been completely lifted.

Fig. 26

These measures are intended to prevent the loaded material from being too strongly pressed against the dosing drums and the drums from becoming clogged during discharge.

During discharge, the hydraulic drive of the transport floor automatically restarts as soon as the loaded material is no longer applying any pressure to the bottom dosing drum.

5.6 Tailgate

The tailgate can be swivelled hydraulically and closes the cargo space on the rear side. The tailgate is lifted and lowered by means of two hydraulic cylinders via the control set.

5.6.1 Tailgate on machines without beaters

5.6.2 Tailgate on machines equipped with beaters

Design and function

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

Forage wagons equipped with beaters can be fitted with the crossover conveyor for stablefeeding or for charging the following conveying devices.

The crossover conveyor (1):

 is mounted at the rear below the beaters,

 is powered by a hydraulic motor,

 can be powered in two driving directions.

Depending on the driving direction, the green fodder is discharged on the right- or left-hand side of the forage wagon.

The ISOBUS control set serves to

 switch the crossover conveyor on and off,

 change the driving direction.

Machines with the type designation "DO" are equipped with 2 or 3 beaters (1), depending on the version.

The p.t.o. shaft of the tractor powers the bottom beater via the propeller shaft, main gearbox, front drive shaft, front angular gear, claw clutch, lateral drive shaft and rear angular gear. The individual beaters are connected with each other by means of roller chains. Each roller chain is equipped with a chain tensioner.

Hydraulic disconnection of transport floor

The bottom beater:

 is movably mounted on the left-hand side in

the direction of motion.

 evades to the rear if the loaded material

applies a particular pressure to this beater.

The switching plate releases an electrical

pressure switch and disconnects the hydraulic drive of the transport floor. The control set simultaneously displays the message "Forage wagon full".

These measures are intended to prevent the loaded material from being too strongly pressed against the beaters and the beaters from becoming clogged during discharge.

During discharge, the hydraulic drive of the transport floor automatically restarts as soon as the loaded material is no longer applying any pressure to the bottom beater.

Only an authorised workshop is allowed to adjust the mounting height of the folding drawbar!

WARNING

Risk of being crushed, drawn in, becoming entangled and risk of impact to people if the hitched machine accidentally loosens from the tractor due to worn drawbar lug and coupling bolt!

Ensure that there is enough free space between the drawbar lug and the coupling bolt when lifting the folding drawbar.

The distance X must be 1180 mm between the ground and the machine frame with the forage wagon with lowered folding drawbar hitched up to the tractor.

The mounting height of the folding drawbar in relation to the machine frame must be aligned by means of the threaded spindles of the hydraulic cylinders if the actual distance X is not 1180 mm.

Use the rear borehole of the respective screw-on seat (1) if you cannot reach the required distance X, in particular in case of bottom linkage.

Fig. 64

6.4 Adjust mounting height of folding drawbar

Shop work

You must have the mounting height of the folding drawbar adjusted to the respective tractor model by an authorised workshop, in order to ensure that the lowered pick-up can properly adapt to uneven terrain. Only a properly adjusted mounting height of the folding drawbar guarantees best possible picking-up of the material to be loaded.

6. Retighten the counter nuts of the threaded spindles.

7. Start the tractor engine.

8. Completely lift the folding drawbar.

9. Ensure that there is enough free space between the drawbar lug and the coupling bolt. The coupling bolt must not chafe against the borehole of the drawbar lug.

Change the level of the bolt-type coupling at

the tractor if the coupling bolt is chafing in the borehole of the drawbar lug.

10. Ensure that there is sufficient free space around the propeller shaft in any operating state. Insufficient free space will lead to damage on the propeller shaft.

Fig. 66

WARNING

Risk to people of being drawn in and becoming entangled due to assembly work on the propeller shaft carried out improperly or due to unauthorized structural alterations!

Only an authorized workshop is allowed to carry out structural alterations on the propeller shaft. Observe the included operating instructions of the propeller shaft manufacturer.

Adjustment of the propeller shaft length is allowed if observing the required minimum transverse contact ratio.

Structural alterations to the propeller shaft which are not specified in the included operating instructions for the propeller shaft are not allowed.

Commissioning

Super-Vitesse CFS 3101, 3501 / Super-Vitesse CFS 3101 DO, 3501 DO 10.13

WARNING

Risk to people due to blown out objects if the length of the propeller shaft has been improperly adjusted thus being compressed during cornering!

Have the length of the propeller shaft checked in all operating states by an authorized workshop and adjusted if necessary before coupling the propeller shaft to your tractor for the first time.

This will prevent propeller shaft compression or insufficient transverse contact ratio.

 Absolutely observe the operating instructions provided by the propeller shaft

manufacturer along with the propeller shaft when determining the length and shortening the propeller shaft!

 The adjustment of the propeller shaft only applies to the current tractor model.

Readjustment of the propeller shaft may be necessary if hitching the machine to another tractor.

4. Slip the locking mechanism of the propeller shaft half with the tractor symbol (Fig. 67) on the protective tube onto the p.t.o. shaft of the tractor until the locking mechanism noticeably engages.

Fig. 68

Assembly instructions for authorized workshop:

1. Hitch the machine to the tractor (do not couple the propeller shaft).

2. Take the shortest operating position of the propeller shaft.

The shortest operating position is reached when driving onto the silo with the folding drawbar

completely lifted. Depending on the tractor's drawgear, the propeller shaft halves slide together by approx. 150 mm when driving onto the silo with the folding drawbar lifted.

3. Pull the propeller shaft apart.

5. Slip the locking mechanism of the other propeller shaft half onto the p.t.o. shaft of the machine until the M16 screw can be inserted into the C-slot of the p.t.o. shaft, and tighten the M16 screw at a tightening torque of 200 Nm.

6. Shorten the propeller shaft, such that the minimum free space (X) is at least 40 mm in its shortest operating position (Fig. 68).

7. Reinsert the shortened propeller shaft halves into each other.

8. Lubricate the p.t.o. shaft of the tractor and the propeller shaft of the machine before coupling the propeller shaft.
