Corn Crusher
8
crusher drive flange falls into the hole in the flange of the driving unit. Move the driving unit
slightly from side to side until it is fully seated on the gearbox case.
5. Then secure the driving unit by means of two quick-operating spring clamps.
6. Latches on the quick-operating clamps are to be hooked into notches in the rivet on lugs
of the crusher drive flange. Clip the quick-operating clamps by pushing on the clamp spring
eye down to the crusher drive surface.
*
Be very careful when engaging and disengaging the quick-operating spring clamps
as your fingers might suffer an injury. The pull of the springs is great and you will
need a considerable force for clipping.
7. Removal of the driving unit is to be made in reverse order. Tilt the clamp latch away so
that it does not hamper in sliding the driving unit out from the crusher drive when removing
the driving unit from the machine.
5.4 Working with the crusher
Prior to machine use read the below information and learn how to operate the machine.
* Check the safety switch of engine ignition for its correct function.
*
Prior to starting the machine, make sure that the hopper is empty and that no material is in
it which is not meant for grinding (stones, iron, plastic materials etc )
*
If the machine is in operation, all other persons and animals must be outside the machine’s
working space. The operator can continue working only after they have been showed out
to a safe distance.
When starting the engine of the driving unit, you are obliged to follow instructions
contained in the respective Instructions for use of the driving unit.
5.5 Preparing raw-materials for grinding
Raw-materials meant for grinding must be free of impurities (pebbles, stones, wood etc.).
Then they are to be poured into the hopper. If the cutting knives exhibit a sudden slow-down
of revolutions (showing as a decreased engine speed), stop feeding the raw-materials into the
hopper. In a while, the engine will restore its full working speed again. Ground raw-materials
(crushed grain, cake) will fall through the sieve into a prepared vessel or bag clamped to the
crusher.
6 Maintenance
To ensure a maximum satisfaction with our product, the machine must be given proper
care and maintenance. Therefore you are advised to adhere to the following instructions for
the machine maintenance:
1. Check all bolted connections for their proper tightening.
2. Make sure that all functional surfaces of the cutting mechanism are clean.
3. At the end of the season or if the machine is to be put out of operation for a longer
time, clean the machine from all dirt and impurities.
