  • Page 5: Tire Safety

    TIRE SAFETY • Failure to follow proper procedures when mounting a tire on a rim can produce an explosion which may result in a serious injury or death. • Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have proper equipment and experience to do job. • Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous. Whenever possible, trained personnel should be called to service and/or mount tires. • Always order and install tires and wheels with appropriate type and load capacity to meet or exceed anticipated weight to be placed on the equipment. REmEmbER Your best assurance against accidents is a careful and responsible operator. If there is any portion of this manual or function you do not understand, contact your local authorized dealer or manufacturer. bEFORE OPERATION: • Carefully study and understand this manual. • Do not wear loose-fitting clothing which may catch in moving parts. • Always wear protective clothing and substantial shoes. • It is recommended that suitable hearing and eye protection be worn. • Operator may come in contact with certain materials which may require specific safety equipment relative to handling of such materials. • Keep wheel and lug nuts tightened to specified torque. • Assure that truck tires are inflated evenly. • Give unit a visual inspection for any loose bolts, worn parts, or cracked welds, and make necessary repairs. Follow maintenance safety instructions included in this manual. • Be sure there are no tools lying on or in equipment • Do not use unit until you are sure that area is clear, especially around children and animals. • Don’t hurry learning process or take unit for granted. Ease into it and become familiar with your new equipment.
  • Page 6 DURING OPERATION • Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts. • Do not clean, lubricate, or adjust your equipment while it is moving. • When halting operation, even periodically, set vehicle brakes, disengage PTO, shut off engine, and remove ignition key. • Be especially observant of operating area and terrain. Watch for holes, rocks, or other hidden hazards. Always inspect area prior to operation. - DO NOT operate near edge of drop-off or banks. - DO NOT operate on steep slopes as overturn may result. - Operate up and down (not across) intermediate slopes. Avoid sudden starts and stops. • Pick the most level possible route when transporting across fields. Avoid edges of ditches, gullies, and steep hillsides. • Be extra careful when working on inclines. • Maneuver truck at safe speeds. • Avoid overhead wires or other obstacles. Contact with overhead lines could cause serious injury or death. • Avoid loose gravel, rocks, and holes; they can be dangerous for equipment operation or movement. • Allow for unit length when making turns. • Do not walk or work under raised components or attachments unless securely positioned and blocked. • Keep all bystanders, pets, and livestock clear of work area. • Operate towing vehicle from operators seat only.
  • Page 7: Following Operation

    • Use caution when working around the discharge area. Stay clear of slide tray. This is controlled from the truck and could operate without warning, creating pinch points which could cause severe injury or death. Always disengage the PTO, stop the truck’s engine and remove the truck’s egnition key before working close to the discharge area. • Never attempt to release jammed materials or clean materials from any area of the mixer or discharge chute with out disengaging the PTO and stopping the truck’s engine first. Moving parts can be hidden by materials, and stopped parts can start unexpectedly, causing severe injury. Always disengage the PTO, stop the truck’s engine and remove the truck’s ignition key before attempting to remove jammed material or to clean the mixer. • Never put arms or feet inside unit, power chute, or discharge door opening, nor climb on or in the mixer while it is running. NEVER allow anyone to position themselves over or near the top of the mixer while it is running. Rotating augers, and sprockets can grab clothing or create pinch points which can cause severe injury or death to the operator or bystanders. Always disengage the PTO and turn off truck engine so that the mixer cannot be accidentally turned on while inspecting, servicing, repairing, or cleaning the mixer. FOLLOwING OPERATION • Following operation disengage PTO, set brakes, shut off engine and remove ignition key. • Store unit in an area away from human activity. • Do not park equipment where it will be exposed to livestock for long periods of time. Damage and livestock injury could result. • Do not permit children to play on or around stored unit. • Make sure all parked machines are on a hard, level surface and engage all safety devices. • Wheel chocks may be needed to prevent unit from rolling. hIGhwAY AND TRANSPORT OPERATIONS • If equipment is going to be transported on a public highway, always follow state and local regulations. Be sure to check with local law enforcement agencies for your own particular regulations. the end user is responsible for federal, state and local vehicle safety regulation complaince (ex: requirements for weight, lighting, etc.) • Adopt safe driving practices: Keep brake pedals latched together at all times.

  • Page 8: Performing Maintenance

    • Be a safe and courteous driver. Always yield to oncoming traffic in all situations, including narrow bridges, inter- sections, etc. • Be observant of bridge load ratings. Do not cross bridges rated lower than gross weight at which you are operat- ing. • Watch for obstructions overhead and side to side while transporting. • Always operate equipment in a position to provide maximum visibility. Make allowances for increased length and weight of equipment when making turns, stopping unit, etc. PERFORmING mAINTENANCE • Good maintenance is your responsibility. Poor maintenance is an invitation to trouble. • Make sure there is plenty of ventilation. Never operate engine in a closed building. Exhaust fumes may cause asphyxiation. Before working on this machine, stop vehicle, set brakes, shut off engine and remove ignition key. • • Always use safety support and block wheels. Never use a jack to support machine. • Always use proper tools or equipment for job at hand. • Use extreme caution when making adjustments. • Follow torque chart in this manual when tightening bolts and nuts. • Never use your hands to locate a hydraulic leak on attachments. Use a small piece of cardboard or wood. Hydraulic fluid escaping under pressure can penetrate skin. Openings in skin and minor cuts are susceptible to infection from hydraulic fluid. without immediate medi- • cal treatment, serious infection and reactions can occur. •...

  • Page 10: Mixer Setup

    mIxER SETUP To avoid personal injury: The hopper floor may be slippery and the auger can spin unexpectedly when stepped on. Use caution when stepping or standing inside the unit, place a protective cover over the auger knives when work inside the box is required. POwER ChUTE ADjUSTmENT (OPTIONAL) • To adjust the height of the power chute, change the length of the link chains on the sides of the chute. For best performance, the unloading height should be set at the lowest height possible. The discharge tip-off on the power chute should be adjusted for correct magnet and discharge angle. Remove or loosen the upper bolts, pivot the tip off to the desired angles and reinstall or retighten all bolts. mIxER RUN-IN • Check for proper assembly, adjustment, and lubrication. Check to see that there is adequate oil in the oil bath. If power chute is used, oil the roller chains. Check all bolt and set screws are tight. • Be sure all shields are properly in place. • Check for and remove any foreign objects in the mixer hopper and discharge opening. • Check to see that drain plugs are installed and the door is closed. • Be sure no one is inside the mixer. • Test run the mixer. • Make sure mixer is empty, then start the mixer. • Run for at least five minutes at rated PTO RPM. • Raise and lower the door and operate the chute/slide tray several times. • Disengage the mixer and turn off the tractor engine and remove driveline. • Check the mixer drive components to be sure they are not abnormally hot. If any of these items are not running as indicated, immediately repair or contact your service representative.
  • Page 11: Mixer Operation

    mIxER OPERATION LImITATIONS • Do not load hay without other dry commodities in the mixer first to act as a carrier or “lubricant”. • Do not overload hay content, Sioux Automation Center Inc. recommends up to 15%-20% of hay by weight in the load. Exceeding this percentage can decrease mixing performance or could potentially damage mixer and cause premature wear on driveline components. wARNINGS • Do not use tough hay (20%-60% moisture) Always used cured, dry hay. Wet hay, foreign objects or overload- ing may cause binding and damage to the mixer. • keep in mind the overall size of the mixer to allow clearance through doorways. mIxING TImE • The mixer can mix an average load in 3 to 5 minutes. Due to this short mixing time, there is normally no reason to run the mixer during loading except to level the materials or to breakup hay.
  • Page 12: Mixer Operation

    mIxER OPERATION LOADING AND mIxING Prior to loading, check mixer for foreign objects and be sure door is fully closed. • 1. Load Commodities • Adding ingredients like corn, soybean meal, cottonseed, etc. will act as a carrier or “lubricant” if hay is included in the ration. • If there are few commodities in the ration, substituting corn silage or haylage is preferred. • Fill mixer between 1/3-1/2 full by volume in commodities and forage before adding the hay to the ration. This will allow enough room for the hay to expand and bring feed level up so the top auger can assist in processing. 2. Load hay • Load processed hay. With the mixer running at 3/4 to full PTO speed, proceed loading the small square bale pieces or tub ground hay into the mixer. Do not exceed 15%-20% of hay by weight. 3. Finish Loading Commodities •...
  • Page 13: Inspections And Adjustments

    INSPECTION AND ADjUSTmENTS IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE OPERATING MIXER. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER TO MARE SURE THE MIXER IS SET UP PROPERLY. THE FOLLOWING RECOM- MENDATIONS SHOULD BE HELPFUL INSPECT AND ADjUST • Roller Chain Tighteners so they apply sufficient spring tension to keep roller chains running smoothly (As a general rule the thickness of a nickel should fit between the spring coils). 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. •...
  • Page 14: Lubrication Schedule

    LubRICATION • It is extremely important that the following lubrication schedule be followed: Bearings: use a good quality multipurpose grease. Replace all damaged or missing grease zerks immediately. Always clean zerks before using grease gun. Pump the grease in slowly until a slight bead forms around the bearing seals. Once a month check lines and connections on grease banks for leaks. • Oilbath Oil: Use a good high quality universal oil. Use an oil that meets or exceeds hydraulic oil grade. Fill to the top lower oilbath roller chains. Change yearly or whenever contaminated. • before operating a new mixer, the roller chains should be liberally lubricated and then the unit operated un- der a no-load condition. This break-in period will allow the roller chains to be thoroughly lubricated and thus minimize heat-up during operation. Page 14...
