Hi-Cap 40 Grain Cleaner
INTRODUCTION
Your Hi-Cap Grain Cleaner is a high quality machine built to give years of reliable service.
With the wide range of screen sizes available, it will take care of all your screening needs.
With its dual screening action it not only removes the “fines”, chaff, etc., but also large trash
such as cob particles, stalks and straw. Power requirements are low, and the motors can be
connected to operate on either 115 or 230 Volts. The feed-in auger will operate in full half-
circle for easy unloading of grain.
SERVICE
Lubricate all grease fittings every 5,000 bushels, or at least once every year. At the same time,
check belt tensions and clean any accumulated trash out of the pulley grooves.
OPERATION
CAUTION
For Your Protection
KEEP ALL SAFETY SHIELDS IN PLACE
As with all moving machinery, DO NOT stand close to the Hi-Cap Grain Cleaner while it is
operating, and always stop it to make adjustments.
The cleaning drum should turn 27 revolutions per minute, and rotate clockwise when viewed
from the feed-in end. The cleaner should be run until empty before stopping. It is not advisable
to leave grain in the cleaner or start the cleaner with a load of grain in it.
The ADJUSTABLE BAFFLE in the internal screen serves two purposes: first, to force the
grain through the coarse screen close to the feed-in end to insure as much fine screening as
possible, and secondly, to prevent grain from working to the far end and out through the large
particle chute. It will be found that the baffle can be closer to the feed-in auger for dry grain
than for wet. Observation of operation will reveal the need for adjustment to give most efficient
cleaning. If the grain tends to build up in the internal screen, set the baffle plate farther toward
the large particle chute end. Otherwise, keep it as close to the feed-in end as possible.
