The manuals contain essential and up-to-date information about your machine. By following the instructions, you ensure safe operation, correct settings, and a longer service life of your Slootsmid machine. This helps prevent problems that may arise from incorrect use.

A standard warranty of 6 months applies after delivery, provided that maintenance and operation have been carried out according to the manual. The warranty covers material and manufacturing defects but becomes void in cases of improper use or incorrect maintenance.

The user manual provides clear guidelines for adjusting each model. These include soil pressure settings, coulter closures, and the unfolding speed of the arms. Proper adjustment prevents unnecessary wear and ensures optimal nutrient distribution.

For regular use:

• Daily: Clean the distributor and lubricate the distributor hub.
• Weekly: Grease all lubrication points and check bolts, chains, and hydraulic hoses.
• Every 6–8 operating hours: Inspect bearings and hinge points (depending on the model).

For storage:

• Thoroughly clean and preserve the machine.
• Generously grease all moving parts and bearings.
• Inspect and replace wear-sensitive parts, such as hydraulic hoses (at least every 6 years).
• Store the machine in a dry, safe environment.

Following this maintenance schedule extends the service life of your machine and helps prevent downtime.
