Abstract
A method controls movement of an adjustable distributor boom having a plurality of adjustable boom components, wherein at least one same tip position of a boom tip of the distributor boom can be achieved by way of different position combinations of the boom components. The method has the steps of: a) determining vectorial distance variables for a plurality of boom elements of the distributor boom in relation to at least one obstacle for the boom elements, b) determining vectorial evasive movement variables for a plurality of the boom components based on the determined distance variables, and c) controlling the movement based on the determined evasive movement variables and a vectorial operator movement variable determining a tip position.
