Operation
1.
Go through the Setup steps (pages 16 & 17).
2.
Set the shear plates ( page 18).
3.
To prevent damage,
NEVER START THE PTO WHEN THERE IS ANYTHING INSIDE THE MILL!
4.
Engage the PTO at the lowest engine speed possible.
5.
Gradually increase the engine speed until the PTO reaches 1000 RPM
Running the mill at PTO speeds below 1000 rpm will result in a coarser grind.
6.
After the hammer mill is up to speed, begin dispensing grain into the hopper.
7.
OPTIONAL: Turn on water valve.
To shut down, do these steps in reverse.
Best Practices
These are the best practices for running the Lankota Corn Cracker.
•
The corn cracker operates at maximum performance when it is fed with grain at maximum speed—i.e. the faster you
feed it, the better it grinds.
•
Keep grain in the hopper at all times—this ensures it feeds as fast as possible, helps keep dust down and also helps it
throw the grain further.
•
Add water via a garden hose and the brass fittings to decrease dust and improve packing.
