Roller Action:
The Clod Hopper works on the principle that po-
tatoes are more elastic than stones, clods or other
debris and will rebound further off the roller after
impact. For the best results the potatoes should
impact the roller a the 10:00 to 10:30 position. The
divider must be set to direct the potatoes onto the
clean conveyor and the clods onto the trash con-
veyor. Watch the rebound area and set the posi-
tion of the divider to direct the material to the ap-
propriately conveyor.

Divider:
Each roller is designed with a divider to direct and
separate the potatoes and debris after impact.
Start with the divider set on #2 and move as re-
quired to provide good separation. If the divider
gets dirty or covered with mud, it can be turned
in 120° increments. To rotate divider, pull out on
spring pin, rotate divider and release pin to seat in
divider.
