INSTALLATION

UNPACKING

Remove the carton from around the machine. Remove the four bolts holding the machine to the skid.
Unpack the chopper cylinder assembly.

Immediately after unpacking the chopper, check for possible shipping damage. If this machine is found
to be damaged after unpacking, save the packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of
delivery.

Prior to installation, test the electrical service to make sure that it agrees with the specifications on the
machine data plate.

The four leg assemblies (Fig. 1) are removed and packed in a separate carton for shipment. Unpack
and assemble these legs by screwing them into the four tapped holes of the frame. The rubber feet on
these legs cushion the machine. Under normal operation, the machine need not be bolted down.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: THE ELECTRICAL CORD ON THIS MACHINE IS EQUIPPED WITH A GROUNDING-

TYPE PLUG WHICH MUST BE CONNECTED TO A PROPERLY GROUNDED RECEPTACLE. IF
THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT THE PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN.
DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THE PLUG.

Choppers with three phase motors should be connected so that the hub drive runs counterclockwise
facing the cylinder assembly.

A check must be made to verify correct direction of rotation. Energize machine momentarily by turning
switch ON then OFF.

If rotation is incorrect, disconnect plug from electrical outlet, disassemble the plug and interchange any
two power leads (not the green ground lead). Then reassemble the plug and recheck.
