CAUTION!

The knives mounted on the rotor and also located at the front and rear of the cutting chamber are extremely sharp. Always wear heavy gloves and exercise care when working in the cutting chamber.

Wipe out the inside of the hopper and upper cutting chamber. Carefully inspect the interior of the cutting chamber for foreign material or debris. Slowly turn the rotor by hand to verify that it rotates freely and without obstruction or contact between the rotor and bed knives. Before closing the cutting chamber, check the chamber to insure that nothing has been left inside the machine. Rotate the hand crank counter-clockwise until the cutting chamber is fully closed. Remove the discharge transition or bin, by sliding out from under the screen chamber..

Lower the screen chamber until it comes to rest

Remove the screens and place them on their side. Wipe out the screen chamber and transition. Once cleaned, place the screen back into position. Raise the screen chamber and tighten the fasteners to hold the screen chamber and cutting chamber securely closed. Connect the fan transition (optional) or replace the bin to prepare the machine for operation. Position and connect any optional accessory equipment such as fans, conveyors, and separators. Ensure all tubing joints are securely clamped and supported.

Make certain all electrical connections are properly made and supported between accessories and the control enclosure. (Refer to the wiring diagrams for wire and terminal connections.)

Open the sheave guard (LH) by removing the fasteners attaching the cover. Check the belts for proper tension and alignment (refer to Section 9-2). Upon completion, close the sheave guard by placing the cover back into position, insert all of the fasteners originally removed, and tighten them fully.
