6.Proper loading procedure involves loading smaller quantity ingredients in the center of the mixer first, to cover up the mixing paddles. This will prevent the aggressive paddles from grabbing too much hay before it can be first adequately processed by the knives on the auger flighting. Loading long stem hay in the center of the mixer increases the chances of shearing pins. If not happy with the resulting ration, some sequencing changes may need to be made. If sequencing changes do not fix your ration problems, see the factory for further assistance. Do not be concerned about the appearance of the ration in the mixer; the appearance and evenness of the ration is determined only in the bunk.

7.To discharge feed from the MaxiMixer it is necessary to first start the conveyor (either self contained hydraulics, or tractor supplied) and then open the discharge door. The conveyor and the door operate on two different hydraulic circuits and can be operated independently. The rate of ration flowing from the MaxiMixer can be controlled by the door position. The higher the door is raised, the more feed it will allow out, and vice versa.
IMPORTANT! ALWAYS START THE DISCHARGE BEFORE OPENING THE DOOR TO PREVENT JAMMING FEED AGAINST THE CONVEYOR!
