7.2.1 Loading Steps
NOTE: The loading sequence could vary.
The following is an example of a typical loading sequence:
1. Load and process long stemmed materials.
2. Load haylage and corn silage.
3. Load minerals, proteins, and other small quantity ingredients.
4. Load grains, wet and dry commodities, etc.
5. Load all liquid fats, water, other liquids. Always load liquids at the center of the mixing chamber.
7.3 MIXING
Normal mixing speed is 1350 to 1800 RPM engine speed. Time available to mix, thoroughness of the mix, and
ingredients are all factors that must be considered when deciding on when and how fast to operate the mixer.
When loading from a raised bay or platform, adopt the necessary
measures (safety rails, etc.) to avoid people or equipment from falling
into the machine.
Load all ingredients as quickly as possible. Allow a final mix time of
3-7 minutes, or whenever the load looks consistently mixed.
Never load long stem bales last. They will not be processed or mixed
into the ration and may cause unloading difficulties or spillage.
DO NOT ENTER MIXER CHAMBER WHILE MIXER IS RUNNING!
Shutoff and lockout power before performing machine service,
adjusting, maintaining, or clearing an obstruction from this machine.
Refer to section 5.3 SHUTOFF & LOCKOUT POWER.
Always operate at the rated PTO speed but DO NOT EXCEED THE
RATED PTO SPEED. If the mixer is operated faster than the rated PTO
speed the strain on the drive train and mixer is greatly increased.
Do not force hay into the auger with loader or any other device.
