INSPECT AND ADJUST
•
Augers and Reel for residue buildup. Clean augers and a clean reel will result in a faster and more efficient mixing
of commodities. Check augers and reel and clean off residue buildup regularly.
•
Roller Chain Tighteners so they apply sufficient spring tension to keep roller chains running smoothly. The chain
will form grooves in the tightener blocks. These grooves help to keep the chains in proper alignment, and the blocks
need not be turned unless the roller portion of the chain has worn into the block.
•
Roller Chains for wear, proper alignment and tension. Adjust or replace if necessary. Roller chain connector links
which pass over polyethylene tightener blocks must have the legs of the cotter pins trailing to the direction of rotation.
•
Safety Decals for readability. If any safety decals are removed, obstructed, or otherwise not understandable, they
should be replaced immediately. Keep all decals clean and visible.
•
Safety Shielding to be sure all shielding is in place and functions properly. Replace all damaged or missing shielding
immediately - see parts pages for more information.
•
Bolts and Set Screws after a few hours of use and each month thereafter. Tighten if necessary.
•
Reel Wipers plastic strips which help material clean out of the reel hopper. If the strips become bent back, they
can be unbolted, moved, turned around or replaced to improve clean out.
•
Wheel Bolts must be kept properly torqued. Damage to the rim may occur if the wheel bolts are not checked
frequently.
•
Rain can accumulate in the mixer if it is stored outside. If rain has accumulated, remove the drain plugs on the
mixer bellies and allow the water to drain completely and replace the drain plugs before the next use.
•
In Freezing Weather the mixer should be checked for snow and ice accumulation before operating the unit. If
accumulation is detected, remove the drain plugs on the mixer bellies and thaw the mixer and allow it to drain
completely. Make sure all obstructions are removed then replace the drain plugs before the next use of the mixer.
•
IMPORTANT! WHEN WELDING ON THIS UNIT: Do NOT allow the current to flow through the bearings, roller chains,
or load cells. Ground directly to the item being welded. ALWAYS disconnect battery cables and also the load cell
cables from the scale indicator before welding.
