ASSEMBLY
Prior to packing, your machine has been assembled and tested to assure quality performance. However, to
safeguard against damage in shipping, certain items are packaged separately within your carton and will need
assembly. Remove extra drive chain which may be used later to change shredder direction for other applications.
BLOWER DOOR: (See Illustration A)
(Blower Filter must remain in Blower Door.) An appropriate size hose (NOT SUPPLIED) is attached to the Blower
Door input tube and the other end is located elsewhere to provide clean air to blowers. A fine screen (NOT
SUPPLIED), acting as a filter, over end of hose eliminates accumulation of unwanted debris. This will eliminate
frequent cleaning of the Blower Filter. (Frequent inspection of input hose is recommended.)
POWER CORDS: (20-30 amp twist lock inputs only)
Female receptacle(s) need to be wired properly to main power cord(s). (For 240 volt 60 hz. see illustration E and
consult electrician for assistance.) Units shipped to European countries will have standard (2) two prong 230V
16 amp plugs supplied. Units shipped overseas to other than Europe do not have plugs and receptacles on input
cords due to the varying electrical plug configurations in different countries,
suppliers.
SLIDEGATE HANDLE:
Prior to packing, the slidegate handle was assembled backwards to safeguard against damage in shipping.
Remove handle and reinstall, so handle sticks out back of machine. Do not over tighten nut, so handle is free
to spin.
unless provided by Krendl agents or
ASSEMBLY OF OPTIONS: (See illustration A)
5" Wheel Package: (standard or heavy duty)
Attach two swivel casters on airlock end of machine for increased mobility. Mount rigid casters on blower end
with the hex bolts provided.
Bushing Reducer: (3" output)
Bushing reducer inserts into output tube of airlock. Press reducer firmly against shoulder and tighten two holddown bolts to secure unit in place. The bushing reduces the size of opening at the airlock to match the hose,
providing a more consistent feed while preventing plugged hoses. (Standard output tube on model #1300 and
#2300 is 3".)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Machine Hook-up
This unit comes ready for connection to insulation hose, power cords, and accessories.
The #1300 and #2300 provide a direct connection to 3" insulation hose. Slide hose on to outlet and
secure with a hose clamp. All hose connections must have hose clamps to prevent air leakage from
blower to nozzle. This helps to prevent hose plugging.
Remove remote control cord, packet, accessories, ect. from hopper and plug remote control cord into MainControl Panel Box located on hopper. (See Illustration C)
The first bag of insulation into hopper should be well broken by hand to assist agitator action. Caution:Never put hands in hopper when machine is running or force feed material by pushing down on insulation.
When assembling unit, make sure remote control hand pendant switch is in the off (middle) position and
close slidegate.
1. Connect power to Input Cord(s) located below Main Control Panel. (See Illustration C)
On double input units, both input cords must be supplied with power from two separate sources for
unit to work properly. One 20 amp plug must be plugged into one circuit and the 30 amp plug plugged
into a seperate circuit from the 20 amp. When using extension power cords, wire gauge size should
not be less than input cord on unit and not to exceed 50' in length. (See Voltage Drop Chart On

Mechanical Settings
Your machine contains blower and slidegate controls used to adjust your machine for each application and type
of insulation. (See Illustration H for machine model and location of controls) Blower control (air) and
slidegate (material feed) are adjusted according to:
Application:Open blow, retro-sidewall and spray-on applications require varying amounts of control.
Type of Material:Cellulose, fiberglass, and mineral fiber have different textures and densities that
respond to machine settings.
Hose:Corrugations or roughness of interior surface, diameter, length and elevation of hose
will also require varying adjustments.
Weather Conditions:Temperature and humidity may require day to day adjustment of machine settings.

Slidegate Setting
BLOWER CONTROL AND SLIDEGATE GENERAL SETTINGS:
Blower control can increase or decrease the amount of air in the system, affecting the velocity (speed) and spread
rate (coverage) of insulation. (See Illustration H) The blower control dial operates clockwise, from HIGH to
LOW, controlling air pressure and amount of air.
Opening or closing slidegate (material feed) controls the amount of insulation dropping into the airlock which
changes the production rate (lbs. per hour). (See Illustration H) For calibration purposes the scale located
on right side of machine indicates how many inches the airlock slidegate is opened.
The blower and slidegate controls working together affect the distance insulation can be blown through a
hose without plugging. These controls also affect the accurate blowing of insulation for spraying applications.
(Illustration H)
These settings control the following:
• Density of insulation blown in retro-sidewall application.
• Velocity of material impact when spraying.
• Dust on open blow.
• Material spread rate or coverage.
• Production rate (lbs. per hour blown).

MODEL #1300/2300
Mechanical Settings (cont.)
GENERAL BLOWER CONTROL AND SLIDEGATE SETTINGS FOR OPEN BLOW: (See Illustration H)
With the slidegate closed, turn agitator-feed motor on and variable speed blower control(s) on low. Fill
hopper with insulation and adjust blower control and slidegate. In making adjustments, move controls
proportional to each other. (i.e. If variable speed blower control is half speed, slidegate should be half open.)
Open slidegate to allow insulation to drop into the airlock providing good production, but not beyond point where
hose plugs. As hose length is increased, the blower control speed is increased while closing the slidegate
proportionally. This will increase the distance insulation can be blown through the hose and improve material
coverage rate, while decreasing the blowing production rate (lbs. per hour blown). These adjustments are for
open blow. If specialty application or retro sidewall work is done, refer to General Blower/Slidegate Settings chart
(below left) or insulation manufacturer.
GENERAL BLOWER/SLIDEGATE SETTINGS:
Since specific settings need to be determined by each operator, the following are only suggested guidelines.
Consult the insulation manufacturer for additional recommendations specific to their product.
APPLICATIONBLOWER CONTROLSLIDEGATE
Open BlowHigh Full Open
Sidewall-Retrofit Low-Med 1/3 Open -Half Open
Wall Cavity SprayMedium Half Open
Commercial Spray (Adhesive)High One-third Open
SHREDDER ASSEMBLY:
This unit is supplied with a shredder assembly; airlock/agitator speeds are preset at the factory. No further
sprocket setting speeds are needed, as this system will accommodate most fibers and applications. However,
the shredder direction can be adjusted as described below.
SHREDDER ADJUSTMENT:
Unidirectional Rotation (See illustration I) is preferred as an all-
around setting for a combination of materials and applications. This
(Illustration I)
(Illustration J)
setting provides for the greatest coverage and best control of the
fibers in wall cavity spray, commercial spray, internal wetting (stabilized) and open blow applications.
Center-Down Rotation (See illustration J) force feeds the insulation
into the airlock at a faster rate. This direction is preferred for the
greatest production of various insulation in an open attic blow applica-
tion although coverage may decrease. This setting will provide ample
coverage and good control of the insulation in wall cavity spray, commercial spray, internal wetting (stabilized) and open blow applications.
(Illustration K)
Rev. Date: 12/27/17Page 15
Center-Up Rotation (See illustration K) is preferred for extended
coverage on mineral fiber. Note: For this application an upgrade
kit will be needed.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Periodic preventive maintenance will add years of life to your equipment. Reviewing the information in this
manual will go a long way in reducing downtime and lost income.
KEEP CLEAN: During operation, keep material from accumulating on Blower Filter. Always keep Filter in
place while operating machine. After each use, remove fiber from hopper and blow out hose. (Use
BLOWER mode at Main Control Panel or Hand Pendant.) Clean air from insulation hose can then be used
to blow insulation from agitator motor and Blower Filter area. The Blower Door attached to this unit reduces
filter maintenance. (See Illustration A on page 8)
Airlock: (Seal Replacement)
The purpose of the airlock seal is to trap air and insulation until it rotates 180
this point, insulation is pushed by air from the blower, out of the chamber. Worn or damaged seals allow air and
insulation to escape back into hopper, thus reducing production and coverage. When it is necessary to replace
seals, follow these directions:
Disconnect power from unit!! Remove hose from input of airlock, remove chain on output. Using a 5/8”
socket, remove hold down bolts from airlock. Lower the front of the airlock down by loosening the jamb nuts and
turning the liftbolts counterclockwise. Slide the airlock out of the machine. (See illustration L) Airlock rotor
plates that are damaged (bent) will need replaced. (Refer to Rotor Plate Replacement on next page.) Take out
rubber seal by removing fastening bolts, nuts and top plate. The base plate will remain attached to airlock shaft.
To install a new seal, reverse procedure. Seal should be inserted tight against the back base plate, pressing the
lower tabs of the seal down under the adjacent seal with a flat blade screwdriver. Make sure all bolt holes are
aligned while each side of seal is equally pressed against the end plates, before tightening bolts. Seal should be
bent forwards for counterclockwise rotation. (See Illustration N on page 17)

BASE PLATE REPLACEMENT:
1. Remove damaged baseplate assembly from shaft using ratchet
drive wrench with extension and 1/2" socket.
2. Check seal for wear and damage. (Installing seal and top plate
on the bench is quick and easy). Remove bolts from plate
assembly and replace with new seal. Make sure seal and top
plate are assembled on correct side of base plate before
assembling in airlock. Seal should press backward towards
top plate when

3. Install the rotor plate assembly into the airlock. The airlock runs
counterclockwise viewing it from the sprocket drive shaft.
(Illustration N) Align the base plate with holes on airlock shaft
using a tapered punch. Caution: Do not mount rotor plate
backwards. If installed improperly, damage to seals will result
and put undue stress on agitator motor. This causes overheating and poor production. Seal should be bent forwards to allow
for a counterclockwise rotation of rotor.
4. As rotor plate is installed, press bottom tab of seal under
adjacent seal with flat blade screwdriver. (See Illustration N)
Note: Entire rotor plate assembly may be removed and
replaced. This procedure maybe easier than replacing
just the seals.
installed correctly into airlock chamber. (Illustra-

(Illustration M)
(Illustration N)
CHAIN: (#50 Nickel Plated)
ADJUSTMENT: A smooth operating chain drive should have a slight sag on the idler side of the chain. New
chains should be installed under slight tension as they will elongate a small amount due to seating of pins and
bushings during the first few days of operation. Chain should be kept in good condition by proper lubrication (dry
film lubricant Dow 321) and occasional cleaning. Soaking chain in container of 10 weight oil will provide for
internal lubrication of pins and bushings. However, excess oil must be drained and wiped away as excessive
lubrication will cause insulation accumulation on chain. Worn out chain should be replaced. When chain is
replaced, worn sprockets should also be replaced, preventing further damage to new chain.
SPROCKETS:
CHECK SPROCKETS FOR WEAR. Misalignment and/or loose sprockets and improper chain tension causes
the premature wear of chain and sprockets. All sprockets, except speed reducer and idler sprockets, have been
secured with a medium grade Loctite (general purpose thread locker), to prevent gradual movement. The set
screws and key are also inserted with a medium grade Loctite. If sprocket is difficult to remove, it may be heated
with a propane torch to loosen.
Caution: Do not overheat sprocket or damage to bearing will result. A pulley or bearing puller can then be
used to remove the sprocket and key. Replace new sprocket on shaft with key and medium grade Loctite
applied to shaft. Align sprocket with corresponding sprocket, using a straightedge placed along face of
teeth and tighten set screw. Speed reducer sprocket does not require Loctite.

Loosen set screws on bearing hub at each end of agitator shaft. Since all set screws are installed with a
medium grade Loctite, a propane hand torch may be used to assist in removing them. Do not overheat unit,
causing shaft to expand. Using a rubber mallet, drive agitator shaft an inch in one direction, creating a space
between hopper and bearing unit. A bearing puller can then be used to remove the bearing. Eliminate any metal
burrs from shaft with file and install new bearings with felt seals. Use a medium grade Loctite on set screws
before securing bearing to shaft. (Check shaft diameter before ordering bearings; 3/4" or 1")
AGITATOR, AIRLOCK AND SHREDDER BEARINGS are prelubricated, double sealed, self aligning ball bearings.
Lubrication is required at three month intervals of normal running time, or sooner if bearings produce a noise or
become too-hot-to-touch. Relubrication at the grease fittings is done with a lithium base grease conforming to
a NLGI GRADE TWO consistency. The grease should be pumped in slowly until a slight bead forms around the
seals. This bead, in addition to acting as an indicator of adequate lubrication, provides additional protection against
the entry of foreign matter. Important: If a slight bead does not form indicating a failure of lubrication or if bearing
shows signs of wear, replace bearing.
SPEED REDUCER:
If speed reducer malfunctions because of improper oil level or type used, warranty is voided. Your speed
reducer has been filled with Mobil Glygoyle 460 Polyglycol (PAG) lubricant. Consult speed reducer manufacturer's
manual for lubricant replacement intervals.
LUBRICATION: This speed reducer was filled with oil at the factory to operate within -10
temperature range. LeCentric units utilize extreme pressure lubricants which protect the teeth in the event of
the oil thinning out due to local temperature rise, or high pressure due to accidental overloads. The reducer is
lubed for life and does not require regular oil changes under normal industrial operating conditions and
environments. Oil changes may be required if the reducers are operated in severe environments (i.e. high or
low temperatures, high altitudes, dusty, caustic, etc.)
LUBRICANT REPLACEMENT: (See Illustration O)
1.Drain: With output shaft of speed reducer facing you, remove
plug (A) with 6mm hex key wrench. Tip reducer and allow unit
to completely drain.
2.Fill with recommended lubricant (use Mobil Glygoyle 460
Polyglycol PAG) through plug (A) opening, using a flexible funnel.
(Make sure speed reducer is level when replacing lubricant.)
3.Replace plug (A).
Caution: Do not mix different oils in the reducer.
Oils should be compatible with Vitron seal material.
O
F to +120OF ambient
Caution: Oil should be changed / checked if reducer
is used in severe environment.
Caution: Oil should be changed every 6,000 hours
or after 2 years.

General Maintenance (cont.)
AGITATOR MOTOR:
If agitator motor runs hot, unit may shut off. Wait for motor to cool, then activate the manual reset on motor by
depressing button. (See Illustration O) If unit does not run properly, refer to troubleshooting sections of manual.
The agitator motor should start quickly and run smoothly. If not, shut motor off immediately and check the
cause. Low voltage, incorrect power supply, bad bearings, or misconnected wiring could cause motor failure.
These conditions void the motor warranty. Overload conditions can be detected by checking the electrical
current (amperage) compared with nameplate current (amperage) located on the body of the motor.
AGITATOR MOTOR REPLACEMENT: Disconnect power from unit!!! Unwire motor from Main Control Panel
and remove drive chain. Place a support block under motor to reduce stress while removing four reducer flange
bolts with a 9/16" socket wrench. (If rear bolts are difficult to reach, remove reducer unit from lower frame for
better access.) Pry motor from speed reducer a slight distance, using a large flat blade screwdriver placed in
one of the slots where they join together. Pull motor unit straight away from speed reducer, retaining key. If
motor does not seperate easily, contact factory for assistance. (See Illustration O on page 18) Before installing
replacement motor, refer to motor nameplate. Check connection of new cord for correct voltage (low or high)
and PROPER ROTATION of speed reducer output shaft. Note: Refer to motor nameplate and inter-change rotation wire leads to obtain counterclockwise rotation on speed reducer output shaft. Rotate
keyways of motor shaft and quill (input) of speed reducer to 12:00 o'clock position. (To turn speed reducer shaft,
remove chain on output of speed reducer.) Assemble the key 3/4" off the end of the motor shaft and coat motor
shaft with anti-seize compound. Align and insert the motor shaft carefully into the input quill. (A flat blade
screwdriver may be helpful to keep key in place as motor shaft is inserted or centerpunch motor shaft.) Secure
to flange with four hex bolts.
Caution: If the motor does not readily seat itself, check to determine if key has moved axially along motor
shaft, causing interference. Tightening motor to reducer with excessive pressure against key will cause
premature bearing failure and overheating of motor and reducer. Connect motor to Main Control Panel and
check for correct rotation of speed reducer output shaft (counterclockwise). Reconnect drive chain
and assemble unit for manual operation.
BLOWER MOTOR:
Periodically remove Blower Filter and vacuum any material that has accumulated inside of blower box and
around blower motor. Blow out any remaining debris around motor and intake orifice of fan with compressed air.
This will extend the life of the blower significantly. Blower Filter life can be extended by occasional removing and
back or reverse blowing through with compressed air. Filter should be replaced periodically depending on use.
If blower produces noise or heat, refer to troubleshooting section of manual.
BLOWER REPLACEMENT: Disconnect power fromunit!!! Remove Blower Door. (See Illustration P) Take
note of electrical connections on blower and remove
wire nuts from lead wires. Loosen hose clamp at the
rear of the blower. Remove blower bracket assembly,
secured with bolt, from blower box. Remove three
bolts and spacers from blower bracket and remove
blower. Reverse procedure for assembly. NOTE: DO
NOT OVER TIGHTEN BOLTS ON RE-ASSEMBLY,
IT MAY DAMAGE BLOWERS AND VOID WARRANTY!!

General Maintenance (cont.)
CARBON BRUSH REPLACEMENT for 12.5 AMP (6 AMP 230 volt) 3-STAGE BLOWER: (See Illustration Q)
Order replacement brushes from your supplier to assure proper brush style. Carbon brushes need to be
replaced when excessive arcing is produced on the commutator. This would be evident by an intermittent
scratchy sound with loss of blower r.p.m. Replace brushes before brush shunt touches the commutator.
1. Remove Blower from Blower Box. (See Blower Replacement on page 19)
2. Remove screw and shield from blower. (See Illustration Q)
3. Unhook wire connected to Brush Assembly.
4. Remove Brush Cover screws by inserting screwdriver through hole in blower housing and turning screw.
5. Pull out old Brush Assembly and install new Brush Assembly and Brush Cover.
6. Connect wire to Brush Assembly and reassemble blower shield. On reassembly and handling, the lead
wires must be kept away from rotating parts and motor frame.
7. To achieve best performance, the new brushes should be seated on the commutator before full voltage is
applied. To seat brushes, run variable speed blower control on medium speed for thirty minutes after brush
change. The motor will return to full performance after an additional thirty to forty-five minutes running
period at full voltage (BLOWER CONTROL on high). Application of full voltage directly after changing
brushes will cause arcing, commutator pitting, and reduced overall life. Brushes can normally be changed
two times before armature and other component replacement is required.
8. Reinstall Blower into Blower Box and wire Blower to Main Control Panel.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
General Operation: (See Illustration R for sequence and Illustration E, S, T, U, V, and W for components)This
unit is powered by one or two separate input sources connected at the bottom of the Main Panel Box. Turning
the Main Disconnect Switch (yellow and red switch located on front of Main Control Panel) to the ON position
distributes power to the Terminal Boards of the Main Control Panel, Voltmeter, Kill Switch, and the Upper
Terminals of the agitator (C1) and the blower (C2) relays. (See illustration E)
When the Kill Switch (red mushroom button) is released (closed) and the green Start Button is pressed, power
is supplied to the dropout relay(s) and the transformer. The transformer supplies 24 VAC to the 4-Position
Selector Switch located on the front of the Main Panel Box.
When the 4-Position Selector Switch is turned to MANUAL mode or the 4-Position Selector Switch is set to
REMOTE mode with remote control hand pendant switch closed, 24 VAC is supplied to the Pre-Alarm relay,
sounding the alarm for a preset time. After the alarm stops, 24 VAC powers the blower (C2) and/or agitator (C1)
relays.
When the agitator (C1) relay is closed, power is also supplied to the 24 VAC ON/OFF Outlet on Main Control
Panel. If power is interrupted to this system by unplugging either main input cord(s), turning Main Disconnect
Switch OFF, or pressing Kill Switch; the green Start Button needs to be pressed to reactivate the system after
power distribution into the system has been reestablished. (See illustrations S, T, U, V, & W for more details.)
