The stock feeders use a two speed reversing motor (B) Fig. 11 to provide high and low speed/feed rates and to
reverse the direction of feed.
When you rotate the motor control switch (A) Fig. 11 to the "turtle" (C), the feed rates are 6.5, 18, 22 and 55 FT/MIN
(2, 5.5, 6.7 and 16.5 M/MIN), depending on the gear arrangement and gear lever position
When you rotate the motor control switch (H) Fig. 12 to the "rabbit" (D), the feed rates are 13, 36, 43 and 108
FT/MIN (4, 11, 13 and 33 M/MIN), depending on the gear arrangement and gear speed selection.
The 36-855 and 36-856 stock feeder models feature two position gear speed selection that enables the feeder to
provide four additional speed/feed rates, and is activated by rotating the selection lever (A) Fig. 12.

Rotate the motor control switch (B) Fig. 13 to the
desired feed/speed position on the dial.
2.
Rotate the lever (A) Fig. 13 counter-clockwise to the
"turtle" position to obtain feed/speed rates of 6.5,
13, 18 or 36 FT/MIN (2, 4, 5.5 or 11 M/MIN), depend-
ing on the motor speed and gear arrangement.
3.
Rotate the lever (A) Fig. 13 clockwise to the
"rabbit"position to obtain feed/speed rates of 22,
43, 55 or 108 FT/MIN (6.7, 13, 16.5 or 33 M/MIN),
depending on motor speed and gear arrangement.
