SAFETY SHIELDING
Be sure all shielding is in place and functioning properly. Replace all damaged or missing shielding immediately
see parts pages for replacement shielding part numbers.
BE AWARE that your installation may require additional safety shielding and/or warnings. Because each installa-
tion is different, Kuhn Knight Inc. cannot design standard shielding 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 with 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. Additional shielding of the motor and drive belt area may
also be necessary depending on exact installation.
AUGER KNIVES
The upper and lower 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.
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 wiper tubes should
not be moved. Repeat for all Tubes.
DRIVELINE OVERLOAD SHEARBOLT
MODELS: 3036, 3042, 3050, 3060, 3070, 3095 ONLY
The driveline has a shearbolt assembly for overload protection. This shear bolt type overload protection needs very
little maintenance. If the motor free spins during operation, the shear bolt has broken. Replace the sheared bolt
with a new one of the same diameter, length and grade. Any bolt of different specifications than listed below will
prevent the shearbolt assembly from operating properly and can cause damage to the mixer.
