• Maintain and follow rigorous safety procedures
while operating the grinder. If these precautions are
not taken, this equipment can cause serious injury
or death.
• Never perform maintenance or service work on or
near the grinder by yourself. Always have 2 people
work together.
Rotor Discharge Area
The rotor discharge area (Figure 32 and Figure 33) is
above the end of the lower discharge conveyor and is
accessible by a door on the side of the machine and from
the top of the machine when the anvil housing has been
raised. This area is used for changing the grates and for
other maintenance activities.
The rotor discharge area is a confined space. Do not
enter this space at any time unless the engine has been
shut down and the battery disconnect is shut off and
locked out. Do not close the door if someone is inside.
Always close and fasten the access door before operat-
ing the machine.
Grates
The grates are the screening devices that retain oversize
material inside the grinding area and pass smaller mate-
rial out to the discharge conveyor. Grates are wear parts
and are changed on a regular basis. They are heavy and
must be handled with care to avoid pinching and crush-
ing injuries. Use a truck crane to hold the weight of a
grate, and use pry bars and tools for positioning.

ment.

Anvil Housing Precautions
Stay off the anvil housing and the area surrounding the
anvil housing whenever the clutch is engaged or the
rotor is turning. The anvil housing can instantly fly
upward if it attempts to grind a non-crushable object,
such as scrap steel. Stay off the machine when it is oper-
ating.
Keep hands clear of the anvil housing pinch points
while opening or closing the housing for changing
grates or other maintenance. Clean the seating area
before closing it.
