HOW TO DETERMINE A METERING ROLL PROBLEM
Place a pipe wrench on the hub of
the sprocket of the jammed meter-
ing roll and turn the roll. First back-
ward, and then forward several
times in an attempt to dislodge the
object, and clear it through the roll.
If this is not successful, have an as-
sistant turn the metering roll, and
attempt to locate the jam by sound.
Shut down the fan heater and elimi-
nate any other noise when making
this check. Once the location is de-
termined, the roll can be reached
from the outside by opening the ac-
cess door to remove the foreign ob-
ject causing the jam (before open-
ing doors see below). The service
tool must be inserted before open-
ing doors. First, swing open the ple-
num bottom closure panel. Insert
service tool above metering roll.
This column cutoff damper is designed to insert through the grain column
(from the inside of the dryer) immediately above the metering roll. This per-
mits opening of the metering roll access door. For service or inspection with-
out unloading the dryer and prior to using the service tool, the plenum bot-
tom closure panel and metering roll adjust damper must be removed.
The metering roll drive.
to rotate the roll toward the inside of
the dryer. If the metering roll will turn,
then repeat for right hand side. If me-
tering roll will turn, it can be assumed
that no blockage exists, and the prob-
lem is from some other cause. Check
for a break in the power train, chain,
drive key, pin, etc.
CAUTION: Keep hands away
from sprocket teeth to avoid injury
To determine if the metering prob-
lem is from blockage, perform the
following test with the power off.
Remove the drive chain by loosen-
ing the motor mounting bolts. Refer
to photo, and place a pipe wrench
on the hub of the roller chain
sprocket, on the left hand metering roll
at the drive end of the dryer. Apply
up to 100 ft. lbs. of force, and attempt
from chain backlash, as a result
of torsion build up in the system
caused by the jam.
