OPERATION
REPLACEMENT PARTS
READ complete manual CAREFULLY
BEFORE attempting operation.
• Do not overload the mixer! Overloading causes excessive horepower requirements, increased strain on the mixer
driveline and poor mixer performance.
FILL LEVEL
• After the ration has been thoroughly mixed, open the mixer door to begin unloading. If the mixer is equipped with
a power chute, the chute must be running before the mixer door can be opened. The combination of the discharge
door opening and the mixer speed determines the flow of feed from the mixer. The door must be opened far enough
to prevent separation of materials, optional door flow control plates are available to help prevent separation. To stop
the flow of feed, close the door, (turn off the power chute) then shut off the mixer.
• The Maxi-Mixer can be equipped with either a power chute, or a slide tray to assist in the delivery of feed. The chute
and tray heights are adjusted with hydraulic cylinders, but the chain stops provided on power chutes should be ad-
justed so that the chute clears all bunks, obstacles, etc.
UNLOADING
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE OPERATING MIXER. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER TO MAKE
SURE THE MIXER IS SET UP PROPERLY. THE FOLLOWING RECOMMENDATIONS SHOULD BE HELPFUL
• Roller Chain Tighteners so they apply sufficient spring tension to keep roller chains running smoothly. The chain will form
grooves in the tightener blocks. These grooves help to keep the chains in proper alignment, and the blocks need not be
turned unless the roller portion of the chain has worn into the block.
• Roller Chains for wear, proper alignment and tension. Adjust or replace if necessary. Roller chain connector links which
pass over polyethylene tightener blocks must have the legs of the cotter pins trailing to the direction of rotation.
• Safety Decals for readability. If any safety decals are removed, obstructed, or otherwise not understandable, they should
be replaced immediately. Keep all decals clean and visible.
• Safety Shielding to be sure all shielding is in place and functions properly. Replace all damaged or missing shielding
immediately - see parts pages for more information.
• Bolts and Set Screws after a few hours of use and each month thereafter. Tighten if necessary.
• Upper Auger Knives can be turned over for use on a new cutting edge and should be periodically sharpened, or replaced
if they are no longer sufficiently breaking up material.
• Lower Auger Round Knives can be rotated several times before sharpening or replacement is required.
• Discharge Chute Augers (optional) to keep from rubbing on the chute body: There are shims behind each chute auger
bearing for alignment. Periodically check chute liners for wear, replace as necessary.
• Trailer Hitch for proper location, alignment and tightness of attaching bolts. If the upper clevis bar becomes excessively
worn the hitch assembly should be unbolted and replaced as necessary. Frequently check the clevis attaching bolts for
tightness, and that the clevis is secure. Worn or damaged bolts must be replaced.
