Unloading Conveyor 9980 Self-Propelled Peanut Combine
Before Using the
Conveyor
A combine equipped with the Off-load
Conveying System (OCS) option comes with
an unloading conveyor. The conveyor
operates as follows:
The conveyor is controlled from the multi-
function handle in the cab.
Once the conveyor is starte
d, there is a
five-
second delay before the two augers
start delivering material to the conveyor.
The five-
second delay is factory set, but
you can change the amount of delay time
as needed.
Make sure there is a container underneath
the conveyor whenever
it is turned on.
Running the conveyor without a container
will cause you to dump product on the
ground.
Conveyor Safety
It is important to remember the following safety
items when your combine is equipped with the
OCS option:
Always keep in mind the le
ngth of the
conveyor and how far out it extends, even
when in the stored position.
Be careful when backing the combine, as
the conveyor extends several feet past the
rear of the combine.
When not using the conveyor, retract it into
its stowed position.
Make sure the
conveyor is in place on the conveyor rest.
Always make sure the conveyor is in the
stowed position when you drive it on a
road.
If necessary, the Quick Stop button on the
armrest panel can be used to stop the
conveyor immediately.
DANGER
NEVER drive on roads with the
conveyor extended. Always make sure
the conveyor is in stowed position on
the conveyor rest before taking it on a
road.
Be aware of the length of the conveyor
when traveling. Even when in the
stored position, the conveyor extends
several feet past the rear of the
combine and presents a substantial
hazard for hitting obstructions.
Take particular care driving around
power lines. Hitting a power line can
cause significant shock or even death
for the combine operator.
NEVER stand or sit on the conveyor
when it is in motion.
NEVER stick your hand or any body
part into any moving part of the
conveyor.
