manual abstract
This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this symbol to avoid possible injury or death. DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in property damage. NOTE indicates information about the equipment that you should pay special attention to. Econo-Mizer 1. Disconnect all power before servicing or adjusting. Have bin properly grounded. 2. Do not enter a bin while the unit is operating without proper eye protection. 3. Do not attempt to service or adjust the unit from a ladder unless the ladder issecured to another piece of equipment or to the bin. The grain spreader can swing and will not support a ladder. Be sure electrical power is disconnected. 4. Power cords, plug and receptacles should be the grounded type to prevent injury. 5. All wiring should be done according to the National Electric Code and by aqualified electrician. 6. Read and understand the operator’s manual. WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury or property damage.

Do not tighten the bracket hardware Fig. 3 until the spreader has been installed and leveled. Hang the spreader from these brackets by hooking the two chains that are at-Fig. 1 tached to each of the spreader support arms to two adjacent hanger brackets. When properly hung, each set of chains will form a “V” and will restrict random movement of the spreader. The spreader can be installed at various heights in the bin depending on the bin diameter and roof angle. The spreader should be Fig. 4 Fig. 2 installed as level as possible by checking with a level and adjusting the position of the hanger brackets and/or the lengths of the chains. Finish the installation by securely tightening the hanger brackets. Installation Wiring: Refer to the Wiring Diagram and Tables A & B on the next page. ADJUSTMENT & OPERATION Figure 2: Slide Gate Adjustment The slide gates are provided in the pan to allow grain to be spread in the center of the bin. These are usually to be open wider for smaller diameter bins. Figure 3: Center Cone Adjustment It is important that the incoming grain be directed onto the center of the baffle cone in order to disperse the grain evenly in the hopper. This cone functions as a flow control and can be adjusted by lifting it from the spreader and placing the hairpin clip in one of the holes in the baffle post. The cone needs to be adjusted higher above the spreader pan for greater capacities and lower for lesser rates. Best spreading results are obtained when the cone is adjusted to maintain a cushion of grain in the hopper. Item 4: Slinger Adjustment 982, 986 & 996 Econo-Mizers have slingers that can be adjusted to accommodate various sizes of bins and grain densities. The slingers will throw grain farther when in the most advanced position (hole #1) and will not throw as far when in the swept back position (hole #3). A guide line to use for adjusting is to use the third hole for 18 foot diameter bins, the middle hole for 24 - 30 foot bins and the first hole for 33 foot and larger bins. Installation and Operation Econo-Mizer INSTALLATION Use Tables A & B to determine the proper size of fuse protection and the length and size of wiring required. Portable extension cords, if used, should be as short as possible to minimize voltage drop. Cords that are too long, or cords that are made of inadequate wire gauge, can cause the motor to fail.
