MAINTENANCE

SECTION 6-4

Screen Replacement

TURN OFF AND LOCKOUT the power per OSHA 1910.147 OR ANSI Z244.1-1982 (Lockout/Tag out of Energy Sources).

If it is not possible to lock out the power, have an electrician remove the fuses

Make sure the rotor has come to a complete stop

The hydraulic cylinders or jackscrews, which open the machine, should not operate until the rotor is completely stopped. If you discover that the hydraulic cylinders or jackscrews DO operate while the rotor is still turning, immediately shut down the machine and call for maintenance to adjust it.

Wear gloves to protect against injury from the rotor or bed knives

OPEN THE SCREEN CRADLE INTERLOCK

Disengage the interlock actuator screw with a box wrench or ratchet wrench.

Make sure the end of the actuator screw is visible and clear of any contact.

When disengaged, the interlock opens the electrical control circuit to the motor and prevents the machine from running.

RETRACT THE SCREEN CRADLE RETAINERS

Turn the screen cradle retainer knobs clockwise until they stop. (This retracts the support wedges from

beneath the screen cradle).

When the wedges are fully retracted, rods extend so that their ends are flush with the surface of each of the retaining knob mounting plates.
