Introduction
Congratulations! You are now the owner/operator of America’s finest roller mill. Please take a few minutes to
be sure that you understand the maintenance and operation of this roller mill. Read this operator’s manual
carefully: you’ll get better results and have fewer problems.
After your roller mill has been in operation for a few hours, check for loose bolts, setscrews, belts, etc.
All are tight when the roller mill leaves the factory; however, after a break-in period, some items may
require additional tightening. Like any other machine, your Automatic roller mill requires proper care and
intelligence in operation. Misuse and neglect will only cause unnecessary expense and dissatisfaction.
This manual is written as a guide for owners and operators of the Automatic LPE500 & LPE700 model roller
mill. Read it carefully and follow the suggestions made. Keep this manual in a convenient place for quick,
easy reference, and use it whenever questions arise.
Fill in the following information now for future reference and convenience. Always give this information
to your dealer when ordering new parts. If at any time it becomes necessary for you to write directly to
Automatic Equipment Manufacturing Company for additional information, give the model and serial number
of your machine, and as much descriptive information as possible. It will enable us to more thoroughly and
quickly expedite your order.

DEALER/OPERATOR PRE-USE INSPECTION CHECKLIST
Although everything is in working order when the roller mill leaves the factory, some components may
get out of adjustment in transit. The following inspection must be made prior to operation. Check each item
listed and make adjustments if necessary. Refer to the corresponding sections of the manual to determine
the correct settings for individual items.
• Check all belts for proper tension and alignment.
• Check to make sure the set screws in all pulleys and bearings are tight.
• Check all grease line connections and lines for damage during shipment.
• Make a general check for bolts that may have vibrated loose during shipment.
• Check greased bearings for proper lubrication.
• Check to make sure all shields and guards are in place.
• After operating the roller mill for the first few times, go through this checklist again. Some
bolts, setscrews and belts may require additional adjustment during this break-in period.
