STOPPING PROCEDURE
WARNING: Never attempt to open
or remove covers or guards while
machine is running! Contact with
exposed rotating parts may cause
severe injury such as amputation!
1. Stop feeding product. This allows
remaining product to be cut and dis-
charged.
2. Flush the impeller area thoroughly
with a generous amount of water
BEFORE stopping the machine. See
pages 34–35 for complete cleaning
procedures.
3. Push the “O” (STOP) button then dis-
connect and lock out power source.
FEEDING METHOD
CAUTION: Do not allow foreign
material such as tools, hardware,
stones, wood, bottles or cans to enter
the feed area. The cutting parts will be
damaged or destroyed and the product
contaminated.
The feeding method affects the quality
and capacity of the finished product. A uni-
form, regulated flow of properly sized product
is essential to satisfactory operation of the
Model 3600 slant. A meter calibrated to show
percent of full motor load is wired into the
electrical system. The optimum feed rate may
or may not be achieved at 100 percent motor
load. This will vary with the type and size of
reduction head and the product being run.
Once the feed rate has been established
without overloading either motor or cutting
parts, the meter should be used as a refer-
ence.
The rate of discharge is as important as the
rate of feed. Product must not be allowed to
back up in the cutting enclosure. Ideally, prod-
uct should be discharged into an open receiv-
ing tank.
DANGER: Never place hands into
feed opening. Doing so can result in
serious injury such as amputation!
