OPERATION OF GRINDER MIXER
After the processing is completed and the desired
ration is in the mixing tank, allow the mixer to
operate until it is ready to unload. Run the mixer 2
to 3 minutes to ensure the feed and supplements
have been thoroughly mixed.
IMPORTANT: Avoid sharp and unnecessary
turns which may damage the PTO driveline
during transport.

UNCTION
When the discharge auger is in position to unload
the tank, the gate is opened and closed manually.
Once the desired opening is achieved with the
discharge gate, use the aluminum wing nut to lock
the door at the desired height.
IMPORTANT: Be careful with finer ground feed
as it can stall out the Discharge Auger if the gate
is open to far.
