OPERATION
OPERATING THE GRINDER MIXER
1. Make sure to read and understand all of the safety items in this manual
2. Always ensure that main drive belt tension is adequate.
3.
If not using the Mill for some time, clean any excess grain out of the intake auger area.
4. Best practice is to store the mill under cover.
IMPORTANT: When starting the Grinder-Mixer, engage the tractor PTO at a slow idle speed. Advance
the throttle of the tractor to the rated PTO speed.
BREAK-IN
It is recommended that the Mill be run at at 1/2 to 2/3 capacity during the first hour of operation. This allows
the frictional forces to diminish signifi-cantly within the auger tube and allows the flow of grain to approach
acceptable levels in the system. Keep this in mind after the Mill has been stored for extended periods of
time as well. It is also recommended that the following mechanical items be checked:
After operating for a 1/2 hour:
• Re-torque all fasteners and hardware.
• Lubricate all grease fittings.
After 5 hours and 10 hours of operation:
• Re-torque all wheel bolts, fasteners and hardware.
• Lubricate all grease fittings - do not over-grease.
CAPACITY
The tank will hold approximately 6000 lbs. of ground feed consisting of average weight corn. More or less
weight (per tank) is possible, depending upon whether the material that is being rolled is lighter or heavier
than average. Capacity of the mill will vary due to the type of material being ground, the moisture content
of the material, and the horsepower of the tractor used to operate the mixer.
The mixer is designated for operation by a 70 to 125 PTO HP tractor with a 540 RPM PTO.

of a pin on the sheave.
To disengage the mill/blower, grasp the pin handle, pull it forward
and rotate it onto the L-shaped bracket.
