SCREEN REMOVAL
In most cases the screens and ball decks can be removed in one of three ways,
as shown on page 19.
1. Through the access door; located at the infeed end of the machine.
2. Through the discharge end, as the discharge chute assembly is bolted on
but is equipped with hinges that allow it to be swung open. Connection
sleeves may need to be removed.
3. Through the top. This entails removal of the dust cover, any inlet
connection sleeves and any dust evacuation sleeves.
The best removal method for a particular installation will depend on a number of
factors such as:
1. Access space around the machine.
2. The number of sections that make up each screen and ball deck.
3. The type of screen element.
One-Piece Screens
If there is ample room to remove a one-piece screen at the infeed end or
discharge end of the machine, then it is best to remove the screen through
whichever end is more convenient. To do this:
1. Loosen the door clamps and swing open the access door, or open the
discharge chute.
2. Loosen the tension skirts, raise them and lock them in the ‘up’ position
using the supplied screen removal tool (P/N SR-2), as shown on page 21.
3. If the ball decks are to be removed then loosen the set screws located on
both sides and ends of the machine.
4. Pull out only the screen element or pull out the screen element and ball
deck at the same time. The ball deck can be left in place if desired.
Screens in Sections
If the screens are in sections, due to the size of the machine or due to limited
room at one or both ends of the machine, the best way to remove the screens is
to:
1. Loosen the door clamps and swing open the door, or open the discharge
chute.
