Kuhn Knight Inc. will not be responsible for damage caused by overloading, wet hay or foreign objects. WARNING Do not use tough hay (20%-60% moisture) Always use cured, dry hay. Wet hay, foreign objects or overloading may cause binding and damage to the mixer. Do not overload HAY MAXX SYSTEM with too much hay. This can cause bridging over the auger. If this occurs never attempt to release jammed materials or clean out materials from the Hay Maxx area without stopping mixer and locking out power so that the mixer cannot be accidentally turned on. 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. Fill mixer between 1/3-1/2 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) A) LOAD HAY ( without hay maxx) With the mixer running, proceed loading the small square bale pieces or tub ground hay into the mixer. Do notexceed 15% -20% of unprocessed hay by weight. Grains, proteins and minerals should be added at the beginning of the load. Free-flowing slippery materials also act as a lubricant for the bulky feeds to be added later. 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 HAY With the mixer running proceed to load the hay on the hay pan. Load the slabs toward the front end of the hay pan, so the hay is not resting against the rear backstop. For best results, do not overload the hay 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%-20% hay by weight). 3) FINISH LOADING DRY FEEDS 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 FEEDS 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. 3000STOPR005810R082503 MIXER OPERATION Always refer to Operating Safety Precautions and Safety Decal sections 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 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 effi...
