Monitoring The Brush Resistance - Kerbl HAPPYCOW MiniSwing Instrucciones De Uso

4.3.1. Monitoring the brush resistance

The device monitors the current used by the motor and therefore checks the correct functioning of the electric scratch
brush. If the gear motor is placed under too much strain, the brushes stand still and then move in the opposite direction.
This can occur if the animals lean to far too one side or if a tail gets wound up in the mechanism.
If this occurrence is repeated more than five times, with the period between events being less than 6 seconds, the control
card triggers an alarm, the display shows fault "5" and the machine switches to its alarm state for 4 minutes.
Caution: the setting must always be made according to the type of herd being cleaned. If the setting
is too high, the cattle may sustain injuries. The responsibility for this setting lies with the customer.
The adjustment of the values should only be carried out when the machine is disconnected from
the power supply.
The threshold setting is lowest at setting ( - ) and highest at (+ ). If the setting is too high or too low for your animals,
here is where you can adjust it.
4.3.2. Setting the cycle time
The cycle time is set at the factory to 90 seconds. This value cannot be adjusted.

4.3.4. Reading the force setting and the operating hours
• Disconnect the brush from the power supply and reconnect it.
• The number 2 will appear on the display.
• Then the letter t and a number between 90 and 95. These show the setting of the brush resistance.
• Now the letter H will be shown and then a sequence of numbers showing the machine's operating hours.
• At the end, a flashing dot indicates the brush is ready to use.
