DRYER PRE START CHECKS

METERING ROLL

OPERATION

To check the metering roll operation

turn either the low speed or high

speed knob clockwise, and the me-

tering roll speed should increase.

Turning either knob counterclock-

wise will decrease the speed.  Make

sure the drive chain tension is prop-

erly adjusted and all sections of the

metering rolls rotate. Turn the un-

load switch off after these checks

are complete.  The bottom auger will

continue to run for 30 seconds after

the switch is turned off to allow for

cleanout.

To check the burner safety function,

first make sure the main gas valve

is off. Turn the fan switch on and al-

low the fan to start.  Then, turn the

BURNER SAFETY

Bump the fan switch and observe

the fan rotation. The fan should run

counterclockwise.  Sometimes on

three phase models all motors on

the dryer will run backwards.  They

can easily be reversed by inter-

changing two of three power supply

wires.  Reverse the two outside

wires, L1 and L3, and leave the

middle one in the same position.

Note: If the dryer is empty, the

burner will not operate. The fans

cannot create enough static pres-

sure to engage the air switch. You

will receive a "no airflow" message.

To start the dryer when it is low

on grain, the airflow switches must

be turned off.

FAN SWITCH

To check one speed operation place

the unload switch in the one speed

setting.  Turn up the high speed me-

tering roll dial until the metering rolls

start rotating.  The bottom auger

should rotate counterclockwise as

viewed from the drive end.  The

metering roll drive motor should ro-

tate clockwise as viewed from the

drive end of the gear box.  If the dry

grain take away auxiliary is wired to

the dryer, it should start and rotate

in the proper direction.

With the grain supply shut off,

quickly bump the load auger switch

to manual, and see if the load auger

rotates clockwise as viewed from the

drive end, or counterclockwise if the

dryer is a front load model. If the wet

grain supply auxiliary is wired to the

dryer it should also rotate in the cor-

rect direction at this time. Turn the

load auger switch to the auto posi-

tion.  The top auger and wet grain

supply auxiliary should run for one

minute, and then the dryer will shut

down leaving the safety shutdown

message (out of grain) displayed.

Press the dryer power stop button
