Types of Material to
be Processed
Plastic/Poly Banding: 15.9mm X .76mm (5/8” x .030”)
Steel Banding: 19.1mm X .79mm (¾” x .030”)
Poly Banding: 19.1mm X 1.27mm (3/4” X .050”)
04.G
Machine Exhaust
Hopper
Hopper must be suitable for the material being processed;
strong enough to hold material when full, not damaged from
impact of chopped material, non-flammable where applicable.
Do not allow the hopper to become too full and backup material
into the machine. This will cause the machine to stall out and can
damage the machine.
04.H
Machine Safe-
Guards
The infeed funnel contains a restrictor plate which impedes
direct access to the machines feedrolls while still allowing easy
feeding of material into the chopper. If equipped, the machine
may come with a safety exhaust chute underneath the machine.
The chute allows material to fall out of the cutting chamber, but
partially covers the open cutting chamber for safety
requirements.
04.I Material Jams
Do not attempt to remove any jams until the flywheel mechanism
has coasted to a stop and dissipated all energy. Prior to clearing
a jam or performing any maintenance, all motors should be
turned off and electrically locked out.
04.J Machine Guards
Never operate the system unless all guards and covers are in
place and secure; do not circumvent the safety switches
connected to these guards. Do not remove any guarding until
the flywheel mechanism has coasted to a stop and dissipated all
energy. Guards should not be removed unless all motors are
turned off and electrically locked out.
04.K Belts
properly aligned, and that tension is within
tolerance. See independent machine manuals for specifications
and proper installation/maintenance.
04.L Fasteners
Extreme care should be taken to see that all bolts are always
properly tightened. During operation of the system, bolts may
come loose from vibration and should be checked on a weekly
basis.
04.M Dull knives For safe operation, do not operate with dull knives.
04.N Feed Material
This machine is designed to chop multiple strands of plastic
banding and steel banding. Do not feed any other materials into
the machine without first consulting Sweed Machinery Inc. If a
jam should occur, pull back on the feedworks handle to release
the pressure on the feedrolls in order to pull the material back
out of the infeed opening.
04.O Cleanliness
The system work area must be kept clean and uncluttered
during the periods of operation or maintenance. Clean up any
fluid spillages immediately. No tools or other metal objects
should be left on or around the machines. Any tools or metal
