You have selected a high-quality product from Holm & Laue. To make your Milk Taxi your reliable companion for many years, please read carefully and conform to the safety messages in this booklet. These safety messages are identified according to hazard levels as follows. Safety Messages DANGER! • This identifies a highly hazardous situation. Failure to conform to the safety message will result in severe, irreversible injury or death. WARNING! • This identifies a highly hazardous situation. Failure to conform to the safety message may result in severe, irreversible injury or death. CAUTION! • This identifies a highly hazardous situation. Failure to conform to the safety message may result in light to moderate injury. NOTE! • This identifies a hazard for hardware and materials. Failure to conform to the safety message may result in damage to assets. 3 General Safety Messages DANGER! Danger to life when safety instructions are not respected. • Conform strictly to all safety messages in this manual! DANGER! Danger to life and of casualty for children! The Milk Taxi may not be used by children. It is built with electrical and mechanical components that may cause hazards that children are unable to properly anticipate. They would be exposed to danger of death or severest injury. • Children do not anticipate the hazards to which a technical appliance may expose them! The Milk Taxi is not designed to be used by children. • Keep the Milk Taxi out of the reach of children! • The Milk Taxi must be operated exclusively by persons who are able to operate it in a safe way. DANGER! No carrying people! • It is strictly forbidden to use the Milk Taxi for the transport of persons, animals or hazardous substances (chemicals). • In particular, it is forbidden to use the milk churn support frame for the transport of anything other than churns or buckets with milk or water in them. • Subjecting the milk churn support to any load of more than 65 kg is unacceptable and will cancel and void the warranty for the Milk Taxi as a whole. 4 DANGER! Danger of injury by moving parts of the appliance. Rotating parts of the appliance (agitator) may sever body parts and get caught in clothes, both of which may result in severest injuries. • Never put your hand into the tank of the Milk Taxi while the floor-mounted agitator is running. • When the amount of milk powder to be mixed was poured into the tank, close the lid. Start the mixing agita- tor only thereafter. • Do not attempt to clear possible powder plugs in the pump manually. • Do not wear loose-fitting clothes and protect your hair by wearing a hairnet. WARNING! Beware of bruises! • While the appliance is pushed or driven, always keep the lid closed. • Secure the lid so it will not flap down when you are working with the lid open. • When you close the lid make sure that no part of your body is between the lid and the tank rim. WARNING! Danger of burns and scalding by the heater of the appliance. When the optional heater or the optional pasteurisation unit is used, the tank and the milk may heat up substantially while the appliance is heating, which results in a hazard for you to burn or scald yourself when touching them. • Do not touch the hot tank nor the hot milk. • When you need to touch the tank and prior to feeding the milk, check the temperature reading on the dis- play. • Verify the correct temperature setting on the display. 5 DANGER! Danger of harmful effects to your calves’ health. • Prepare your animals’ milk diet according to the recommendations provided by the milk replacer manufacturer. • Avoid drinking temperatures in excess of 42°C (107°F), as they may cause scalding in the animals’ mouth. • Avoid too low milk diet temperatures (depending on the milk replacer used and the acid content in the milk), since they may cause undesired fermentation in the animals’ digestive system. • Wash the nursing buckets and the Milk Taxi after every feeding. Improper cleaning may cause increased bacteria growth, which would put the calves’ health at risk! • When using detergents, make sure that residues are properly rinsed out of the system. DANGER! Fire hazard. The lid of the Milk Taxi may concentrate the sun’s rays, when it is open, because of its concave shape on the inside. In this case, the focal point of the lid may develop excessive heat. • Keep the lid closed at all times. • Never leave the Milk Taxi unattended when it is outdoors. Some parts of the Milk Taxi heat up substantially in the course of its operation. Combustible objects next to or on top of the Milk Taxi may then ignite spontaneously. This is turn may cause death and severest burns. • Prior to parking or storing the Milk Taxi, wait for it to cool down completely. • Do not store any combustible object next to or on top of the Milk Taxi. DANGER! Hazard associated with the battery. When the batteries of the Milk Taxi are damaged, they may release acids and other substances. These sub- stances may cause intoxication and burns. • Avoid any mechanical strain that may damage the battery. • Have the battery replaced only by a qualified/licensed shop. • Avoid the battery’s discharging completely, since the fact that it is more than “normally flat” will damage it. 6 WARNING! Hazards during milk transport. The Milk Taxi is mounted on a travelling chassis that allows pushing it manually to the pen to feed the calves. The tank may tilt over if the ground is not level, then affecting persons present. This may result in bruises, cuts, and other injuries. • Always prevent the Milk Taxi from rolling on by pulling the parking brake. • Persons present — especially children — should always keep a safe distance to the Milk Taxi. • Persons unfamiliar with the appliance must never operate the Milk Taxi with EL-AN electrical drive. • Make sure the way that the Milk Taxi will travel is level and solid, ideally paved. Potholes and soft ground (sand, gravel, snow) are likely to hamper the movement of the Milk Taxi. When the EL-AN electrical drive is used, special attention has to be paid to safe milk transport with the Milk Taxi. The drive is very powerful. In particular, problems of stability may occur while driving through a bend. • Prevent accidental movement of the Milk Taxi (250 litres) by using the supplied wheel chocks. This model version is designed as a trailer behind a quad or similar, without its own brake. • The maximum speed of travel with a Milk Taxi 250 litres should never exceed 6 km/h. The Milk Taxi is not authorised for road traffic. NOTE! Material damage by frost. • When the temperature is below 0°C (32°F), humidity in the Milk Taxi may freeze. This may cause malfunc- tions. • Never store the Milk Taxi in an environment where the temperature decreases to below 3°C (38°F). Any damage caused by frost will cancel the warranty under which the product is. 7 NOTE! Danger of material damage. • The mixing agitator and the optional extras Pump Heater, and Pasteuriser must never run if there is no liquid in the tank. Damage the appliance sustains because the mixer or the pump turned dry or the heater over- heated is not eligible for warranty claims. • Turn the Milk Taxi off immediately at the On/Off switch if you notice an altered or uncommon sound of the motor or the pump. Then have a qualified shop check and repair the malfunction. • After cleaning the Milk Taxi, the drain tap should be opened to empty the remaining liquid from the tank. This is required in winter, in particular, to avoid liquid residues freezing in the draining pipe or the pump. • Prevent objects from falling into the tank. Foreign bodies may damage the pump and the agitator. • Use only genuine spare parts from the company Holm & Laue. Using other parts will cancel any and all war- ranty under which the product is. NOTE! Using beestings for pasteurisation prohibited. • The protein structure of colostrum is different from that of normal whole milk. Beestings proteins may de- naturate under the influence of heat. This, in turn, leads to reduced milk quality and may result in attaching agglutinations and burnt milk in the Milk Taxi. Such deposits will overstress the heating element and may lead to its failure. Therefore, do not use colostrum with a dry matter content in excess of 15% in your H&L Milk Taxi! If any deposits form in the tank, remove them immediately. Repeated pasteurisation of milk prohibited. • The pasteurisation slightly lowers the pH of the milk.

Introduction The new schools in sustainable development show a gradual realization and recognition for participatory approaches that facilitates the process of linking the communities with scientific family (researchers & academic people). By adopting participatory approaches the local knowledge and innovation will be respected, promoted, shared and scaled up. Participatory approaches were triggered by discussions on farming systems research and extension during 1970s and were followed by the beginning of Participatory Technology Development(PTD) and farmer to farmer extension approaches during 1980s.The approaches of facilitating(two- ways)learning between ‘insiders’ and ‘outsiders’ evolved during 1990s as an element that aimed at strengthening participatory approaches.

    Stowmarket, Suffolk IP14 1DL Tel: 01449 612229 www.eastanglianlife.org.uk Objects(s): Butter making equipment Object Number(s): STMEA:75.A.78.1, STMEA:76.A.79.9a-b, STMEA:76.A.79.10 and STMEA:76.A.79.11 Researcher details: Richard Hall, Volunteer. Butter making equipment Most people use a variety of margarine-based spreads to put on bread and toast. In former times, butter was the only option for almost everyone. Today, butter has seen somewhat of a revival as we turn away from margarine and spreads to more traditional accompaniments to our slice of bread. These objects in out collection reflect a former era when butter was made by hand in small local dairies with any surplus sold to customers in the locality. Our first object is a ‘Butter Churn’ (STMEA:75.A.78.1) which was made by R.A. Lister and Company of Dursley in Gloucestershire. Research suggests that R.A. Lister, who were perhaps better known for their small petrol and diesel engines, made a number of these churns between 1890 and 1910 from offcuts of wood from their garden furniture making business1. It is a very simple wooden frame in which is placed a small wooden barrel with a spindle though the centre. The barrel can be spun ‘end-on-end’ by turning the handle at the end of the spindle. The whole mechanism serves to turn the barrel end-on-end, and spinning the contents inside – a process known as “Churning” from which the object derives its name. The result is similar to whipping cream with a whisk or mixer, except that this process requires muscle power rather than electricity.
