OPERATING (cont'd)
10. Stopping Machine Cont'd:
e.
Disengage hydraulic circuit and slowly
disengage PTO clutch.
f.
Stop engine by turning ignition key to OFF
and REMOVE.
11. Pre-Cleaner:
The machine is designed with a cleaner
between the blower and the receiver tank to
remove dust and dirt from the air stream.
Clean every 1000 bushels during normal
operating conditions. Clean or empty pre-
cleaner canister more frequently in dirty or
dusty conditions.
12. Specialty Crops:
Operating:
When handling specialty products such as
sunflower seeds, lentils etc, it is recommended
that the PTO speed be reduced by 1/4 to ½
rated RPM. This gives a gentler action through
the machine.
Run the airlock at a slower speed to allow
More time for the product to fill the pockets.
13. Operating Hints:
a. Try to keep the hoses full as possible to
have maximum capacity.
b. Pull the intake nozzle out of the grain and
empty the machine before changing
trucks.
c. Maximum efficiency is obtained with large
airflow lines. Use the smaller rubber lines
only for final clean-up.
e. Route the lines to minimize bends and
corners. If a corner is necessary, use a
large radius elbow.
f.
Keep lines as short as possible to
minimize friction loses.
g. If long distance moving is required, push
the grain rather than pull.
h. If long distance moving is required, use
solid metal tubing whenever and wherever
possible.
