Instruction Manual / 3speed shearing plant 7
2.4.4 Residual dangers
Should dangers and hazards occur during operation which are not directly related to the shea-
ring of animals, we request that you inform us of this. This also applies in the event of a tech-
nical failure that causes a hazard.
2.5 Requirements of the operator
The safe use of the machine places few demands on operating personnel. These must,
however, be observed and maintained as a matter of course.
• The operator has experience in dealing with the animals being shorn.
• The operator has read and understood the operating instructions, or has been indoctrinated
into the operation of the machine by a skilled person, and the risks and dangers have been
pointed out to him.
3 Initial start-up
3.1 Important notes
• The voltage specified on the maker‘s plate and that of the local power supply must match.
The plant may only be connected to an AC power supply.
• It is a compulsory that the operator has read the safety regulations.
• In the event that the plant is operated from a generator, the mains supply voltage must not
exceed that specified on the maker‘s rating plate.
3.2 Rotary speeds
The three-speed portable shearing plant is specially designed for professional use.
2700 RPM. The lowest speed is ideal for inexperienced shearers and for shearing under
difficult conditions.
3200 RPM. The medium speed setting is suitable for shearers with average shearing skills
and for running in new shearing hand pieces.
3500 RPM. The high speed setting is for experienced, professional shearers who demand
high shearing performance.
3.3 Changing the speeds
An authorised service point in compliance with the following instructions may only
carry out changing the speed!
• Pull out the plug from the socket.
• Remove the cover by loosening the nine screws (Diag. 2, pos. a). A plate bearing the speed
specification is fitted beneath the cover. See also Chapter 4.2, ”Service“. The self-tensioning
belt tensions the belt automatically.
• Push the belt by means of a slight movement so that it appears as in Diag. 2 Drive axis turns
into the new desired position (Diag. 2, pos. c). To ensure that the belt is not damaged, do
not use any auxiliary aids when changing speeds. Make sure that the belt is located in the
grooves at the same height on both axis.
