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