Caution:
It is recommended that commodities are added to the mixing chamber while the
auger is turning for maximum mix efficiency. Starting the augers from a standstill
with a full load in the mixing chamber places additional stress on the machine and
may decrease mix quality.
Caution:
Never load anything into the mixing chamber that could cause damage to the
machine (i.e. lumber, branches, stones, tires, etc.). Before mixing any materials
other than suitable animal feed stuffs, written permission must be obtained from the
manufacturer!
The following are some problems that the operator may be faced with at some point during
cutting and mixing. Please follow the recommendations given to remedy the problem.
Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!
1. Plugging:
Although plugging or clogging of material can occur in several ways, the main way that
plugging or clogging usually occurs is at the unloading door.
Always park the mixer on a flat, level surface, put controls in neutral, apply parking brake if
equipped (if not, block wheels), stop engine, remove ignition key, wait for all moving parts to
stop, (disconnect the spark plug lead and ground it to ensure the engine does not start
unexpectedly) before unplugging.
Open discharge door and clean out the clogged area.
2. Entangled Material:
Twine, string, and wrapping material that is not removed from bales can get tangled on the
auger or under the auger. If this material is not removed from the auger, it can cause
damage to mixer components as well as decreased mixing and cutting ability.
Always park the mixer on a flat, level surface, put controls in neutral, apply parking brake if
equipped (if not, block wheels), stop engine, remove ignition key, wait for all moving parts to
stop, disconnect the spark plug lead and ground it (to ensure the engine does not start
unexpectedly) before removing entangled material.
Open the discharge door and remove the entangled material.
