Changing Material and Storing
Equipment
1. Follow
reconnect fittings or reinstall mixing tube.
2. Vacuum and/or hose down the hopper and dosing
shaft. Make sure all the dosing/breaker elements
are clean.
3.
For storage and use in freezing temperatures:
Drain the water. Remove twist-claw irrigation fitting
(DG) and open water accessory ball-valve (DB).
Carefully tilt the unit to allow water to drain from
both ends of the water control assembly (D), which
is separated by the closed water control solenoid
(DE). Ensure water has also been drained from the
water output hose and water dosing port (FCC) in
the throat insert (FC).
4. Reconnect all fittings and reinstall the mixing tube
assembly onto the throat insert. Ensure the pins
(FBB) on the mixing shaft (FB) line up with the slots
in the material dosing shaft (FD).
Avoid contact with the discharge nozzle (FF), mix
shaft (FB), and material dosing auger shaft (FD)
during preparation for changing material or storing
equipment. These parts can pull in, crush, cut, or
amputate fingers and other body parts.
Do not use pressurized water jets to clean electrical
box, motor, capacitors, or wires. Use of pressurized
water jets can cause water to enter the electrical
controls and increase potential for electric shock.
NOTICE
If water is used to clean hopper (A) or material dosing
auger shaft (FD), allow equipment to fully dry before
placing more dry material in the hopper. A wet hopper
or auger shaft can cause dry material to cure onto
mixer parts.
NOTICE
If working in a cold environment, failure to drain water
from the water control assembly (D) could cause
damage to the system due to freezing water.
