Do not overload mixer! Overloading causes excessive horsepower requirements, increased strain on mixer drive-
line and poor mixer performance.
The design of the Turbo-Max Mixer requires that there be adequate space to allow the feed to move in and around
the reel chamber. If the reel is completely covered, it cannot effi ciently mix the materials. The reel cross tubes
should
always
be visible at the top of their rotation to allow this mixing space.

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 fl ow of feed from the mixer. The door must be
opened far enough to prevent separation of materials, optional door fl ow control plates are available to help pre-
vent separation. To stop the fl ow of feed, close the door, (turn off the power chute) then shut off the mixer.
The Turbo-Max 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 adjusted so that the chute clears all bunks, obstacles, etc.

MIXER OPERATION
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE OPERATING MIXER. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE
OWNER TO MARE SURE THE MIXER IS SET UP PROPERLY. THE FOLLOWING RECOM-
MENDATIONS SHOULD BE HELPFUL
Roller Chain Tighteners
so they apply suffi cient spring tension to keep roller chains running smoothly (As
a general rule the thickness of a nickel should fi t between the spring coils). 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.
Reel Wipers
plastic strips which help material clean out of the reel hopper. If the strips become bent back, they
can be unbolted and turned around or replaced to improve clean out.
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 suffi ciently 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.
