Designed for quick navigation, the video supports both new and experienced operators, promoting safer and more efficient machine use in daily operations.
Understanding functions, optimizing settings and protecting the potatoes
With the new explanatory video for the ROPA Keiler 2 RK22, ROPA offers its customers practical support for everyday harvesting operations. Step by step, all operating functions of the two-row potato harvester are clearly explained and demonstrated directly on the machine.
The aim is to provide drivers, farm managers and service teams with the best possible support in understanding the extensive functions of the Keiler 2 RK22, using them efficiently and adapting them optimally to the respective operating conditions.

Step by step through the operation
The explanatory video provides a clear overview of the key areas of the machine. From the basic settings and terminal operation to the individual working functions on the harvester, the video clearly shows which setting has which effect on the harvesting process.
The direct link between operation and machine reaction is particularly helpful: the video not only explains which switch or function is activated, but also shows what subsequently happens on the harvester. This makes the functions easier to understand, helps users recognise connections more clearly and enables settings to be remembered more quickly in practical use.

Practical tips from the field
In addition to explaining the individual functions, the video contains numerous practical tips. Small hints and tricks show how the Keiler 2 RK22 can be adapted to different requirements. Whether ridge intake, cleaning intensity, picking table or bunker functions, the individual chapters help users adjust the machine precisely and optimize harvesting quality.
This enables drivers to react more quickly, adapt settings in a more comprehensible way and make better use of the machine’s full potential.

Greater safety and efficiency for the end customer
With this video, ROPA makes complex technology even easier to understand and supports users in operating the machine safely, adjusting it optimally and making the best possible use of the Keiler 2 RK22’s performance in daily operation. New drivers can familiarize themselves with the machine more quickly, experienced operators receive practical support for reference purposes, and farms benefit from a consistent knowledge base within the team.
Thanks to the clear visual presentation, operating procedures are easier to remember. The chapter structure of the video allows users to select the relevant section directly. This means users do not have to search for long but can quickly access the desired explanation of a function or setting. This is particularly valuable when working with changing drivers, seasonal staff or functions that are used less frequently.

Many thanks to the Grimm contracting company
Special thanks go to the contracting company of Stefan Grimm from Goch for providing the new ROPA Keiler 2 RK22 with tractor, as well as for their support during the filming.
A practical farming operation that relies on state-of-the-art technology was deliberately chosen for the video and already has its second Keiler 2 RK22 in operation. We would also like to thank driver Niklas for providing his visually upgraded tractor.
