WEIGH HOPPERS & SURGE HOPPERS
Storage
Section
G
When storing the seed hopper for long periods of time, the following procedure must
be followed to reduce the chance of rust, corrosion and fatigue of the conveyor. You
can also use these steps when storing the machine for the winter.
1.
Clear the area of bystanders, especially small children.
2.
Disconnect power to the machine.
3.
Thoroughly wash the entire machine to remove all dirt, mud, debris or residue.
4.
Lubricate all grease fittings. Make sure that all grease cavities have been filled with
grease to remove any water residue from the washing. This also protects the
bearing seals.
5.
Lubricate the hopper vibrator as defined in the Maintenance Section.
6.
Touch up all paint nicks and scratches to prevent rusting.
7.
Store the machine inside a protective building to keep it from being exposed to the
weather. Select an area that is dry, level and free of debris. If storing outside,
cover with a waterproof tarpaulin.
A dust mask and protective rubber gloves shall be used when
cleaning the machine.
