Chapter 1:  Safety 
1-1  How to Use This Manual 
Use this manual as a guide and reference for installing, operating, and maintaining your 
equipment.  The purpose is to assist you in applying efficient, proven techniques that enhance 
equipment productivity. 
This manual covers only corrective maintenance. No other maintenance should be undertaken 
without first contacting a service engineer. 
The Functional Description section outlines models covered, standard features, and safety 
features.  Additional sections within the manual provide instructions for installation, pre-
operational procedures, operation, preventive maintenance, and corrective maintenance. 
The Installation chapter includes required data for receiving, unpacking, inspecting, and setup 
of the equipment. We can also provide the assistance of a factory-trained technician to help 
train your operator(s) for a nominal charge. This section includes instructions, checks, and 
adjustments that should be followed before commencing with operation. These instructions 
are intended to supplement standard shop procedures performed at shift, daily, and weekly 
intervals. 
The Operation chapter includes a description of electrical and mechanical controls, in 
addition to information for operating the equipment safely and efficiently. 
The Maintenance chapter is intended to serve as a source of detailed assembly and 
disassembly instructions for those areas of the equipment requiring service.  Preventive 
maintenance sections are included to ensure that your granulator provides excellent, long 
term service.  
The Troubleshooting chapter serves as a guide for identification of most common problems.  
Potential problems are listed, along with possible causes and related solutions. 
The Appendix contains technical specifications, drawings, schematics, parts lists, and 
available options.  A spare parts list with part numbers specific to your machine is provided 
with your shipping paperwork package.  Refer to this section for a listing of spare parts for 
purchase.  Have your serial number and model number ready when ordering.
