SAFETY

OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

When the mixer is in operation it has many moving parts which could cause severe injury or death to persons coming in contact with these parts. To help avoid serious accidents, the following guidelines should always be followed:

1. BE SURE ALL SAFETY SHIELDS are in place before operating, including driveline shields. Exposed machinery due to missing shields can grab hands and clothing and cause severe injury or death. Repair or replace any damaged or missing shields.

2. NEVER PUT ARMS OR FEET INSIDE unit or discharge door opening, nor climb on or in the mixer while it is running. NEVER allow anyone to position themselves over or near the top of the mixer while it is running. Rotating reel, augers, and sprockets can grab clothing or create pinch points which

can cause severe injury or death to the operator or bystanders. Always lock out the power so that the mixer cannot be accidentally turned on while inspecting, servicing, repairing or cleaning mixer.

3. NEVER HAND FEED MATERIALS into mixer while it is running. Rotating reel and augers inside the mixer may not be visible from the loading point, and may cut or grab hands, clothing or material being loaded, causing severe injury. Always stop mixer and lock out the power before hand loading materials.

4. NEVER ATTEMPT TO RELEASE JAMMED MATERIALS OR CLEAN MATERIALS from any area of the mixer or discharge chute without stopping mixer and locking out the power first. Moving parts

can be hidden by materials, and stopped parts can start unexpectedly, causing severe injury. Always stop mixer and lock out the power before attempting to remove jammed material or to clean. Be aware that the spring loaded reel arms can spring back unexpectedly, causing injury.

5. DO NOT ALLOW OPERATION of this unit by inexperienced and unqualified people. Keep all unqualified people away from mixer during operation. Operators of this unit must be alert and use good judgement at all times. Operator should not climb on ladder or any part of the mixer when loading, mixing or

discharging material.

6. DO NOT wear loose or floppy clothing while operating this unit. Loose clothing may become entangled

in moving machinery.

7. BE SURE the inside of the mixer is clear of any obstructions and that all shields are in place before operating. Repair or replace any damaged or missing shielding. Exposed sprockets and chains due to

missing shielding can grab hands and clothing and cause severe injury or death.

8. SHOULD A PROBLEM OCCUR during operation of mixer, always stop mixer and lock out the power before investigating problem. If mixer power has not been locked out, the mixer may start unexpectedly,

causing severe injury or death.

9. USE CAUTION WHEN WORKING AROUND THE DISCHARGE AND HAY PAN AREA. Never reach into discharge or hay pan area without first locking out power. Moving parts can be hidden by material, and stopped parts can start unexpectedly, causing severe injury.

MIXER SETUP

READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WHEN SETTING UP THE MIXER.

To avoid personal injury: The hopper floor may be slippery and the augers or reel can spin unexpectedly when stepped on. Use caution when stepping or standing inside the unit; put a protective cover over the auger knives.

INSTALLATION TIPS

1. Be sure there is adequate clearance around the mixer for maintenance, repair and loading the mixer.

2. If the electronic weighing system is used, be sure that the weigh bars are kept clean and dry. Also be sure items such as loading conveyors are not attached to or leaning on the mixer. Refer to scale manual for more specific information.

3. Mixer should be mounted on a structure of adequate strength to support a fully loaded mixer. Machine must be level and stable at the desired height. Weigh bar mounts should be fastened to this structure.

4. Manual door opener for the 3115 & 3120 can be mounted at either the front or the rear of the mixer. The following instructions will help to modify the door opener for operation from the opposite end:

A. Remove latch and mounting bolt and install to opposite end of mixer in corresponding hole. B. Remove door wheel assembly. C. With door in fully closed position, cut door wheel shaft to proper length, drill mount hole, slide

into position and replace bolt.

5. The 3125, 3130, 3136, 3142, 3150, 3160 and 3170 manual door opener is in a fixed position on the drive end of the mixer.

6. An optional remote electric door actuator is also available for the 3115 and 3120 models. An electric/hydraulic power pack is available for the 3125 through 3170 models. The power pack is standard on the 3195.

NOTE: When wiring the electric/hydraulic power pack, make sure to wire it to a switched source and ensure it only runs when the door is activated.

Electric Motor Recommendations

Following is a listing of suggested motor and frame sizes. Ratings are based on “normal dairy feed rations”. Contact the factory if intending to mix heavier loads such as feedmill use, heavy/sticky beef rations or industrial use. A smaller motor may be adequate for easy-mixing materials and a larger motor may be required for difficult materials. Wiring and overload protection should be sized according to the motor size installed. The motor mount will fit the recommended motor size. Other motor sizes may require additional holes to be drilled in the mount or a different mount assembly. Dual motor mount, frame and shield are standard on 3125, 3130, 3136 & 3142 models.

All models are designed to be used with a motor operating at 1725-1750 RPM.

MIXER SETUP

READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS WHEN SETTING UP THE MIXER.

SAFETY SHIELDS

Be sure all shields are in place and functioning properly. Replace all damaged or missing shields immediately; see Parts Manual for replacement shield part numbers.

BE AWARE that your installation may require additional safety shields and/or warnings. Because each installation is different, Kuhn Knight Inc. cannot design standard shields for all conceivable situations without limiting the use of the mixer. The top of the mixer and the door opening are the two areas that should be given particular attention in regard to safety. The top of the mixer has a grid type safety shield to help prevent a person from falling into the mixer. However, because there are many different feeds and ways of loading them, the top openings must be large enough to avoid obstructing the loading operation. Likewise, the door opening area must be unobstructed to allow the discharge of feed.

Kuhn Knight Inc. warns operators using decals on the mixer and specific instructions in this manual to stay clear of these areas during operation. If safety decals are blocked from view due to the installation, then additional decals should be ordered and placed so they are readable. If your particular installation is such that a person may inadvertently put an arm or leg in these areas during operation, then additional safety shielding must be installed to prevent such an occurrence. Drives, u-joints, sprockets and pulleys underneath the unit may become exposed if the equipment is mounted at an elevated height. Additional shielding of these areas may be necessary depending on exact installation.

AUGER KNIVES

The upper auger knives are installed to help handle long materials such as long stem hay. If you do not intend to handle this type of material, the knives can be removed. Commercial Reel models ordered with the Grain Series package do not include knives unless a Hay Maxx System was installed.

REEL CROSS TUBES

The cross tubes have two settings which can be utilized depending on the material being mixed. The tubes are factory set in the outer position. In general, the inner setting is used for a high hay ration. To change to the inner position, compress and secure the tube into the spring, and relocate the capture bolt to the inner holes. The square wiper tubes should not be moved. Repeat for all non-wiper tubes.

MIXER TEST RUN

1. Check for proper assembly, adjustment, and lubrication.Check to see that there is adequate oil in the oil bath. Check to be sure all bolts and set screws are tight and the drive belts are at the proper tension. Review OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS in the SAFETY section and the LUBRICATION section before operating the mixer.

2. Be sure all shields are properly in place.

3. Check for and remove any foreign objects in the mixer hopper and discharge opening.

4. Check to see that drain plugs are installed and that the discharge door is closed.

5. Be sure no one is inside the mixer.

6. Test run the mixer.

a. Make sure mixer is empty, then start the mixer. b. Run for at least five minutes. c. Raise and lower the door several times. d. Turn off mixer and lock out power. e. Check the mixer drive components to be sure they are not abnormally hot. Refer to Inspection and Adjustment section for proper alignment and tension settings.

MIXER OPERATION

Always refer to OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and SAFETY DECALS in SAFETY section of this manual before operating this mixer.

GENERAL

The Reel Auggie and Commercial Reel Mixer were designed for blending dairy and beef rations. Most

commonly used ingredients, including limited amounts of dry stem hay, can be mixed quickly and uniformly in this mixer. If you have questions regarding your feed ration or have other applications, please contact Kuhn Knight Inc. The Reel Auggie and Commercial Reel mixer’s mixing performance can vary greatly according to the differences in materials, loading sequence, mixing speed, and unloading methods. The following guidelines should be understood before operating the Mixer.

The Hay Maxx System is designed to start processing hay before it enters the mixing chamber. This is an efficient way to add long stem hay to the ration. The hay pan holds the hay in position, while the auger begins to process the hay with the aid of hard edge knives and shear angles. The hay pan, backstop, aggressive auger knives, and shear angles, work in combination to tear hay apart faster for more even mixing.

When you see this Hay Maxx System logo operation instructions.

The Roughage Maxx System is designed to complete hay processing once it reaches the mixer’s lower auger.

When you see this Roughage Maxx System logo , there are specific and special Roughage Maxx System operating instructions.

SAFETY

When the mixer is in operation it has many moving parts which could cause severe injury or death to persons coming in contact with these parts. To help avoid serious accidents, please read and understand

the OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS in the SAFETY section, located in the front of this manual.

MIXER OPERATION

Always refer to OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and SAFETY DECALS in SAFETY section of this manual before operating this mixer.

LIMITATIONS

Do not load hay without other dry commodities in the mixer first to act as a carrier or “lubricant”.

Do not overload hay content. Kuhn Knight Inc. recommends a maximum of 15% to 20% of unprocessed hay by

weight in the load. Exceeding this percentage can decrease mixing performance or could potentially damage mixer and cause premature wear on driveline components.

WARNINGS

Do not use tough hay (20% to 60% moisture) Always use cured, dry hay. Wet hay, foreign objects or overloading

may cause binding and damage to the mixer and hay pan.

Kuhn Knight Inc. will not be responsible for damage caused by overloading, wet hay or foreign objects.

Do not force hay into auger with loader or any other device. The area over the auger does not have bucket guards, avoid bucket contact with the auger to prevent potential damage to knives and auger.

Do not overload Hay Maxx System with too much hay. This can cause bridging over the auger. Never attempt to release jammed materials or clean out materials from the Hay Maxx System area without stopping tractor engine and removing driveline.

MIXER OPERATION

Always refer to OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and SAFETY DECALS in SAFETY section of this

manual before operating this mixer.

MATERIAL THAT CAN BE LOADED DIRECTLY INTO THE MIXER

Many different kinds of materials can be mixed with the Reel Auggie or Commercial Reel Mixer, but each type has its own unique characteristics.

FORAGES: Chopped hay, corn silage, and finely chopped crop residue can be mixed in the mixer. Wet and heavy forages added in large volumes may require more power to mix.

GRAINS: Ground, rolled, flaked, and whole cereal grains, minerals, and concentrates, are all very easily mixed, and can improve the mixing performance of the other materials.

LIQUIDS: Supplements and liquid fat can be blended in the mixer. Some operators prefer adding liquids into the empty mixer, and others add liquids on top of grains or roughage. Sticky liquids such as molasses tend to increase the power requirements.

MATERIALS REQUIRING PREPARATION

The following feed materials require some preparation or processing to be mixed in the Reel Auggie or Commercial Reel Mixer:

- SMALL SQUARE BALES

- LARGE SQUARE BALES

- ROUND BALES

- ALL LONG AND UNCURED GRASSES

- STACKED FEEDS

The mixer can be used to mix rations with up to 15% to 20% dry alfalfa by using the Hay Maxx System. For rations with a higher percentage of hay, mixing may be improved by pulling the non-wiper cross tubes to the inner setting (see MIXER SETUP, REEL CROSS TUBES). This will allow the reel to more aggressively charge the lower auger with hay.

Preparing Small Square Bales: Remove twine or wires while on the ground. Put bales into loader bucket lengthwise so that they will fall onto the Hay Maxx System or, if the hay is dry cured alfalfa, load directly into mixer equipped with Roughage Maxx option.

Preparing Large Square Bales (3’ x 3’ x 8’), (3’ x 4’ x 8’), (4’ x 4’ x 8’): Remove twine while on the ground. Put slabs of the bale into the loader bucket (10” to 12” total thickness suggested maximum size). The hay should lay flat against the Hay Maxx System pan to properly feed into the Hay Maxx System.

Preparing Round Bales: Remove the twine and break apart with loader, round bale slicer, round bale unroller or other round bale processing equipment and load separated portions of hay into the Hay Maxx System.

Processing Long and Uncured Grasses: Pre-process in a tub grinder or a vertical mixer.

Processing Stacked Feeds: Break material apart with the loader or pre-process in a tub grinder.

HAY QUALITY

Always use cured, dry hay. Tough hay can cause wrapping or binding and may damage the mixer or adversely

affect the mixing performance. Some factors that contribute to tough hay are high moisture content, high grass content, high density bales, outdoor storage, use of hay preservatives and excessive stem length.

MIXER OPERATION

Always refer to OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and SAFETY DECALS in SAFETY section of this manual before operating this mixer.

LOADING AND MIXING

Prior to loading, check mixer for foreign objects and be sure door is fully closed.

1) LOAD COMMODITIES

Adding ingredients like corn, soybean meal, cottonseed, etc. will act as a carrier or “lubricant” if hay is included in the ration.

If there are few commodities in the ration, substituting corn silage or haylage is preferred.

Fill mixer between 1/3 to 1/2 full by volume in commodities and forage before adding the hay to the ration. This will allow enough room for hay to expand and bring feed level up so the top auger can assist in processing.

2) LOAD HAY A) LOAD PROCESSED HAY

With the mixer running, proceed loading the small square bale pieces or tub-ground hay into the mixer. Do not exceed 15% to 20% of hay by weight.

The hay can be loaded after the previously added grains. Grains help to move the hay into the augers. It often helps to have the mixer running while adding the hay and to load the hay on the auger side.

B) LOAD UNPROCESSED HAY

With the mixer running and the Hay Maxx System pan bolted in the “up” position, proceed using the loader to begin placing the hay on the Hay Maxx System pan. Load the slabs toward the front end of the Hay Maxx System pan, so the hay is not resting against the rear backstop.

For best results, do not overload the Hay Maxx System pan and allow time to process the hay in the Hay Maxx System before adding more. Repeat until proper percentage of hay for ration is met. (not to exceed 15% to 20% hay by weight)

Note: Hay processing time with the Roughage Maxx option may be reduced due to the aggressive knives. Hay particle length may be reduced much faster when using the Roughage Maxx option, processing time should be adjusted accordingly to avoid over processing.

3) Finish Loading Commodities

Finish loading any other ingredients to complete the ration in order of least binding ingredient to most binding. Example: dry commodities first, corn silage second, haylage last.

4) Finish Loading Wet Commodities

Any other wet feeds may be added at this time.

5) Add Water

If ration includes water, add it last. Adding water at the beginning will cause the hay to bind.

NOTE: Do not overload mixer! Overloading causes excessive horsepower requirements, increased strain on

driveline and poor mixer performance.

MIXER OPERATION

Always refer to OPERATING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS and SAFETY DECALS in SAFETY section of this manual before operating this mixer.

FILL LEVEL

Do not overload mixer! Overloading causes excessive horsepower requirements, increased strain on mixer driveline and poor mixer performance.

The design of the Reel Auggie and Commercial Reel Mixer requires that there be adequate space to allow the feed to move in and around the reel chamber. If the reel is completely covered, it cannot efficiently mix the materials. The reel cross tubes should always be visible at the top of their rotation to allow this mixing space.

Do not exceed full line as shown in diagram.

UNLOADING

3100ST 006046 010507

After the ration has been thoroughly mixed, open the mixer door to begin unloading. The discharge door opening determines the flow of feed from the mixer. The door must be opened far enough to prevent separation of materials. Optional door flow control plates are available to help prevent separation.

To stop the flow of feed, close the door, then shut off the mixer.

OPTIONS

All Options are available as original equipment or field installation.

DOOR FLOW CONTROL PLATES

Longer feedstuffs will unload smoother and more evenly through a “tall and narrow” opening versus a “short and wide” opening. Flow control plates have been developed, which allow the operator to use a smaller or existing conveyor to carry feed from the mixer while keeping the discharge flow of feed (especially long stem hay/haylage mix) even and smooth. See “Door Parts” section of the corresponding Parts Manual for flow control plate part numbers. NOTE: Feed separation may occur if the door is not opened far enough.

ELECTRIC DOOR CONTROL

This option allows the discharge door to be operated from a location away from the mixer, or when an installation location requires remote door operation.

ELECTRONIC SCALES

Allows accurate ration weight while loading, also scale indicator can be located away from mixer if a more convenient location is preferred. Refer to the manufacturer’s operator’s manual for your specific scale option operation and maintenance.

HAY MAXX SYSTEM

A bolt-in option designed for the user who wants to more effectively add long stem hay to the ration. The Hay Maxx System handles small and large square bales, broken-up round bales, frozen bunker silage and other bulky materials, without over-processing.

ROUGHAGE MAXX SYSTEM

A system of additional lower auger scallop knives that enhance hay processing performance of the reel mixer, with or without the optional Hay Maxx System. It is designed to allow the lower auger to do more cutting of long stem hay and roughages, even after hay has been introduced to the ration through the Hay Maxx System.

INSPECTIONS AND ADJUSTMENTS

Always stop mixer and lock out the power before servicing, repairing or cleaning the machine.

If work must be done inside the mixer, put a protective cover over the auger knives to avoid injury. The hopper floor and fighting may be slippery. Use caution when stepping on or standing inside the machine.

Use safe shop procedures and exercise caution when working on the mixer!

INSPECT AND ADJUST...

...Roller Chain Tighteners so they will apply sufficient spring tension to keep roller chains running smoothly. As a

general rule the thickness of a nickel should fit between the spring coils. The chain will form grooves in the tightener blocks. These grooves help to keep the chains in proper alignment and the blocks need not be turned unless the roller portion of the chain has worn into the block.

...Roller Chains for wear, proper alignment and tension. Adjust or replace if necessary. Roller chain connector links, which pass over polyethylene tightener blocks, must be installed with legs of the cotter pins trailing to the direction of rotation.

...Safety Decals for legibility. If any safety decals are removed, obstructed, or otherwise not understandable, they should be replaced immediately. Keep all decals clean - see SAFETY DECALS in the SAFETY section for more information.

...Safety Shields to be sure all shields are in place and functioning properly. Replace all damaged or missing shields immediately - see Parts Manual for shield part numbers.

...Bolts and Set Screws after a few hours of use and each month thereafter. Tighten if necessary.

...Reel Cross Tubes so that they slide in freely when compressed against the spring; the spring pockets may

need occasional cleaning. This sliding action helps prevent jamming and avoids overloading of the driveline.

...Reel Wiper Tubes for the condition of the plastic wiper strips, which help material clean out of the reel hopper. If the strips become bent backward, they can be unbolted and be reinstalled backward or replaced to improve clean out.

...Knives for damage or wear.

Upper Auger Knives can be turned over for use of a new cutting edge and should be periodically sharpened or replaced if they no longer sufficiently break up material.

Round Lower Auger Knives can be rotated several times before sharpening or replacement is required. Bolt-on Scallop Knives are to be replaced when they are worn. Small Knives on the flighting perimeter are to be welded in when replacement is necessary.

...Motor Fan Guard. The fan guard must be kept clean to allow sufficient air flow for proper motor cooling.

...Drive Belts for wear and hardness. Old belts will be brittle or hard and must be replaced. Pulley misalignment

often causes belt wear and this alignment should be checked when replacing any worn belt. Inspect pulleys for wear or damage both on the grooves and on the shaft diameter. Clean and dry belts thoroughly before reassembly. Tighten belts to a tension that will allow the belt to deflect 1/2” when a 10lb. force is applied in the middle of the belt span. Belts should be kept clean, dry and oil free.

IMPORTANT: WHEN WELDING ON THIS UNIT: DO NOT allow the current to flow through the bearings, roller chains, or scale weigh bars. Ground directly to the item being welded. ALWAYS disconnect weigh bar cords from scale indicator before welding.

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS

IMPORTANT! Read before operating mixer. It is the responsibility of the owner to make sure the mixer is set up properly. The following recommendations should be helpful.

HAY MAXX SYSTEM ADJUSTMENTS

To avoid personal injury: The hopper floor may be slippery and the reel and augers can spin

unexpectedly when stepped on. Use caution when stepping or standing inside the unit, put a protective cover over the auger knives, and be prepared to handle the unbalanced weight of the hay pan as it is moved into its fixed position. Care should be taken to avoid pinch points and the knives on the upper auger as the pan is moved into place.

The Hay Maxx pan must be bolted in the fully extended upright position.

LUBRICATION

ALWAYS STOP MIXER AND DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE SERVICING, REPAIRING OR CLEANING. USE SAFE SHOP PROCEDURES AND EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN WORKING ON THIS MIXER!

It is extremely important that the following lubrication guide be followed: For lubricating bearings, use a good quality multipurpose grease. Replace all damaged or missing grease

zerks immediately. Always clean zerks before using grease gun. Pump the grease in slowly until a slight bead forms around the bearing seals. Once a month check lines and connections on grease banks for leaks.

Before operating a new mixer, the roller chains should be liberally lubricated and then the unit operated under a no-load condition.This break-in period will allow the roller chains to be thoroughly lubricated and thus minimize heat-up during operation.

The large drive enclosure is designed to be used as an oil bath. Fill front enclosure until the oil level reaches the plug labeled “oil level ”on the enclosure.
