Operating instructions

3.2.1 Sliding floor discharge unit
❒ The maximum dumping height (depending on the fuel density) as specified in the
operating instructions for the sliding floor must not be exceeded.
❒
Driving over the fuel in the store can cause the material to be compacted.
➥ This may stop the slide rods from running smoothly.
Filling the store by driving over the slide rods
Slide rods can be driven over, provided the following precautions are taken:
❒ The slide rods must be covered by a residual fuel layer approx. 30 cm deep so
that the truck does not drive directly over the sliding floor keyways.
❒ On no account may the truck drive over the longitudinal support for the slide rods.
(Provide guidance systems for driving the truck into the store, or position gates ap‐
propriately)
❒ While the truck is on the sliding floor, the hydraulic unit must be switched off
❒ While it is on the sliding floor the truck should be manoeuvred as little as possible
Filling the store by tipping fuel onto or next to the slide rods
❒ If the fuel can be tipped out without driving over the slide rods, the store can be
filled while the boiler is running
3.2.2 Horizontal screw feed system
❒ When the boiler system is running, fuel can be tipped into the store at any time.
➥ CAUTION: Fuel may only be blown in if the pressure conditions in the store are
suitable and the water content of the fuel does not exceed a maximum of W30.
3.2.3 Inclined screw feed system
The inclined screw must always be moved into an upright position in order to fill the
store.
This can be done as follows:
❒
If the store is filled while the boiler system is running, the screw moves automati‐
cally into an upright position.
➥ If the store is empty, the screw must be moved by hand into an upright position
and wedged with fuel.
❒ If the feed system is not running when the store is filled, the screw can be held
upright using string.
➥ TIP: The string should be thin enough for it to break as the store is filled.
3.2.4 Articulated arm / spring blade feed system
Blowing in fuel with the stirrer head still covered
❒ If the head of the stirrer is still covered with fuel and the arms are drawn in against
the stirrer plate, fuel can be blown in at any time provided the boiler is switched off
