5.c Recommendations to Make
Extraction Easier
The bagging machine
AKRON® model
E 9700
H/HE
has the grain extractor AKRON® model
EXG 400 X
as an ideal complement, and the
extractor requires some conditions in the layout
and preparation of the grain bags.
If a grain bag is prepared next to a wire fence, a
4-metre clearance must be kept, taking into
account that the extractor loads a vehicle
moving along to the right-hand side from theº
point of view of the tractor driver.
Figure 5.3 Location of a grain bag in relation to a wire fence
If two or more grain bags have to be placed
parallel one to the other, at least 1 (one) metre
should be left between them in order to work
with room to spare during the extraction.
However, the most important precaution is to
anticipate that the first bag can be easily
accessed from the side where the grain
transport vehicle must move.
If the grain bag is closed on its initial end using
two pieces of wood or plastic seals, less
remaining cereal will be left to remove manually
at the end of the extraction process.
5.d Previous Controls on the Machine
Before setting up the machine for the extraction
process the following controls will have to be
carried out:
Make sure that all the parts of the machine are
prepared according to its operating position, as
indicated in Section 4 – “Position changes”
Check the oil level in all the machine’s drive and
transmission gearboxes. The detail of their
components
is given in section 9.
“Assemblies”.The machine should never be
operated if there is not enough oil inside all the
gearboxes, since this would result in serious
mechanical damage to all these transmission
components.
In all cases, if it were necessary to add oil, only,
SAE 80w-90 must be used. The quality of the oil
should never be altered, since this would result
in problems for the performance and lifespan of
the gearbox components
5.e Machine Layout
Once the extractor is ready in its operating posi-
tion, it must be placed facing the grain bag in the
following way:
1)1Align the extractor with the tractor and the
grain bag as shown in the figure. These three
elements should be as centred and aligned as
possible, since this will make the extraction
operation easier.
Figure 5.5 Implements alignment
2) Remove the lock pin that keeps the lifting
auger attached to the cassis. To prevent this pin
from getting lost during the machine operation, it
is highly advisable to put it in the same place
(tube support for transport position), which is
free at that moment.
3) Make sure that the hydraulic switch valve is in
the "Auger” position.
