MACHINE COMPONENTS
The machine is designed with a PTO powered vertical auger. The vertical auger cuts and
mixes a variety of feed ration ingredients into an even, uniform mixture. Knives located on
the periphery of the auger flights cut material as the auger rotates in a clockwise rotation.
Restrictor blades located at the front left and rear right corners of the mixing chamber are
adjustable to regulate cutting action of feed rations. A planetary gearbox located under the
auger center post provides rotation to the auger.
The planetary gearbox is equipped with a remote oil reservoir to display oil level and
condition.
The input driveline is equipped with a shear bolt to protect the drivetrain against shock loads.
Some models may be equipped with a 2-speed transmission option which offer a selection
between High Gear and Low Gear.
On all models, a hydraulically powered unloading door is opened to allow the mixed feed
ration out of the mixing chamber. Discharge options include left-center side door and right-
center side door.
On left and right center side door discharge models, the feed ration is distributed onto a
chute and then onto the ground immediately below.
Standard models include a 3-point weighing system to monitor the amount of feed ration
inside the mixing chamber. This system incorporates weighbars located at the hitch and
axle assemblies, and a scale indicator option usually located at the front of the machine.
