Compression Roll Safety Locking
Stops
A safety locking stop is provided on each side of the
machine to support the compression roll housing in its
raised position. Use the stops during maintenance or
whenever you enter or work inside the hopper.

DANGER
Crushing hazard.
The compression roll is extremely heavy. Do not
depend on the hydraulic system to hold the com-
pression roll in a raised position.
Always set BOTH of the safety locking stops any
time that:
• Maintenance, inspection, or repair work is to be
done under a raised compression roll housing.
• The compression roll is to be left in a raised
position for any reason.
Never attempt to remove any safety locking stop
or support pin from inside or while you or any-
one else is under the weight it supports.
Any time that maintenance or service work is needed on
or under the compression roll housing, set and lock out
the safety locking stops for the compression roll in the
up
position (Figure 28). This prevents it from falling on
someone.
To set the safety locking stops:
1.
Press
ROLL
UP
on the remote to raise the compres-
sion roll to its maximum height.
2.
Rotate both of the safety stop handles (Figure 29
and Figure 30) 90 degrees.
3.
Check to see that both of the safety locking stops
are in the support (Figure 28) position.
4.
Press
ROLL
DOWN
on the remote to lower the com-
pression roll onto the safety stops (Figure 28).
5.
Be sure the safety stops are securely in place and the
compression roll sidewalls are properly seated on
the stops.
6.
Lock out the stops by installing a padlock in each
stop handle.
Use of an incorrect stop device can lead to failure and
serious injury or death. Use only safety locking stops
approved by Peterson.
