20. Unplugging:
Although the machine is designed to handle a
wide variety of material without any prob-
lem, occasionally it plugs. When the machine
plugs, follow this procedure to unplug:
a. Clear the area of bystanders, especially
small children.
b. Stop the engine, remove the ignition key
and place it in your pocket and wait for all
moving parts to stop before unplugging.
c. Pull the material out of the feed hopper
or reverse the hydraulic feed hopper. Be
sure all the material is out and nothing is
jammed or wedged between the input
opening and the rotor.
d. Pull the material out of the discharge
hood. Use a stick to poke loose any
material jammed into the discharge hood.
Do not allow anything to remain in this
area.
e.
Severe plug:
•
Loosen the feed hopper anchor nuts
and raise the feed hopper. Remove
material from inside the rotor com-
partment.
•
Clean out the discharge area/rotor.
•
Open the rotor cover and clean out
the housing. Be sure to turn the rotor
by hand to be sure there is nothing
jammed between the rotor and sta-
tionary blades.
•
Close, install and fold down all com-
ponents opened to unplug. Tighten
fasteners to their specified torque.
f.
Check that everyone is clear of machine
before restarting engine.
g. Start the engine, engage the PTO
and resume working.
