Page 7: Using Your Monomixer
USING YOUR MONOMIXER READ CAREFULLY SETUP 1. When you are delivered your new MONOMIXER from the factory, it is not immediately necessary to check the machine for bearing lubrication or discharge chain tightness as these items have been factory serviced. It is recommended to walk around the machine and familiarize yourself with the location of all moving parts, caution decals, the general operating dimensions and the basic working features of the MONOMIXER. - Page 8 CAUTION! DO NOT REPLACE A BLOWN FUSE WITH A FUSE OF A HIGHER RATING! 4. The MONOMIXER has also been supplied to you with a complete scale system. Read and understand the scale manual and familiarize yourself with its different functions. The scale indicator leads should be connected directly to the battery either on the mixer or the tractor.

If a MONOMIXER does become plugged or jammed, to the point where normal mixing rotation (counter clockwise from the front) will not resolve the problem, it will be necessary to reverse the mixer.

- Page 11 9. To discharge feed from the MONOMIXER, it is necessary to first start the conveyor (either self contained hydraulics or tractor supplied) and then open the discharge door. The conveyor and the door operate on two different hydraulic circuits and can be operated independently. The rate of ration flowing from the MONOMIXER can be controlled by the door position.
