PRESSURE OF THE FEED DRUM ON THE MATERIAL
The feed drum exerts pressure on the material via the springs (1).
For easier maintenance, henceforth the hammers are mounted without
lubricator but with special wear rings.
The lack of lubricators on the hammers however should not stop you from
inspecting the hammer discs and blades on a regular basis.
Upon inspection, check whether the
hammers are rotating freely.
In case there is a coarseness, spray
penetrating grease onto the axles and
tap the hammer(s) using a mallet.
Frequency of inspections:
- control blades and hammer inserts : 50h
- Verification wear rings hammers: 200h
CONTROL BLADES AND HAMMER INSERTS
DISASSEMBLY FOR THE CHANGING OF BLADES AND
HAMMER PELLETS
It is imperative to remove the ignition key before this type of servicing.
- The hexagonal socket head screws holding the blades and hammer pellets are factory
mounted using a normal LOCTITE thread-lock adhesive. To disassemble, use a suitable
wrench in good condition.
- Remove all the blades and hammer pellet screws (when reassembling, only use new, well
degreased screws).
- Clean the support surfaces; seats (1) and heels (2); blades and hammer pellets.
To access to the blades and pellets, remove the 4 nuts (4) and the main body extender (3)
along with the shaft.
- Check that the hammers can rotate freely around their axle.
MAINTENANCE
-Remount new or sharpened blades of identical weight.
IMPORTANT: Sharpening should be carried out by a professional on a machine specially
adapted for that purpose, and not with a grinding machine.
Also ensure that a cutting edge angle of 35° is maintained.
The minimum length (A) after sharpening should not be less than 50mm. (The length of
a new blade is 60 mm).
-Retighten the screws with thread lock at a torque of 16 M. Kg ensuring that the blades
and pellets are resting on their heel.
IMPORTANT: always take care to install new well-degreased screws so that the
thread lock can adhere correctly.
-Reassemble the main body extender (3).
-Start the engine and leave it to rise in temperature for a few minutes.
-Accelerate to mid-speed so that the rotor begins to turn and ensure that no abnormal
vibration is disturbing the good operation of the machine.

The COUGAR machine is equipped with a controller of the rotation of the rotor that is
linked to an automat. Hence, we can prevent the machine from being blocked: permanent
information about the rotating speed of the rotor is being sent to the VarioStress. When the
rotor speed falls below a factory-set threshold, the hydraulic supply of the feed is
interrupted. The feed and belt will stop, the machine will no longer be fed material and the
engine can reach its working speed agian (3600T/mn). When the speed exceeds the lower
threshold, the feed roll and belt are supplied with oil again and the engine starts running
again.
