5. Installation
All instructions must be carried out in the order described, to prevent personal
injury or damage to machinery.
Always take great care when handling the knives since they are very sharp
and can cause personal injury.
The granulator should be connected to the mains supply by an authorised
electrician.
5.1 Pre-start checks
• Before the granulator is installed, the rust preventive should be carefully
cleaned from the parts which are not painted or rustproof.
• Check the knife clearance and tightening torque on the attachment bolts for
the knives.
5.1.1 Two hours after first start
Check the knife clearance again and tightening torque of the attachment screws
for knives; check the attachment screws for both the fixed and rotating knives.
5.2 Opening and closing the hopper and screenbox
Screenbox:
The screenbox is held in place by a spring-loaded hoisting mechanism, which is
manoeuvred using the bar (4). Release the screenbox by moving the bar until it
is horisontal.
1. Pull out the granule bin (3). A safety
switch on the back of the granulator
is then activated, which breaks the
current to prevent the machine from
being started with the screenbox
open.
2. Loosen the socket-head nut at the
top of the clamping ring (1).
Turn the granulator, by using the
motor as a lever, to the position
shown in the figure opposite.
Simultaneously put your weight
against the motor so that the
granulator does not turn freely
and damage the blower motor.
