6.4.3 Shear Bolt PTO, Primary (F355/F470)
The primary driveline on the F355 & F470 has a shear bolt design. When the torque reaches its maximum load, the shear bolt will shear to protect the system. Replace the 3/8”-16 x 1” grade 5 shear bolt and 3/8-16 locknut to reset the PTO.
6.5 HITCHING TO TRACTOR
Before hitching to the tractor, make sure that there is sufficient ballast on the front axle of the tractor.
Depending on conditions, the ballast weight needs to be adjusted to optimize tractor drive. The front axle load must never, under any circumstances, be less than 20% of the tractor's unladen weight.
Move to the operator’s position, start the engine and release the parking brake.
Do not allow anyone to stand between the tongue or hitch and the tractor when backing up to the equipment.
Move the tractor in front of the mixer. Slowly move the tractor backwards towards the mixer and align the drawbar with the implement’s hitch.
Keep hands, legs and feet from under tongue and hitch until jack is locked into place.
NOTE: Lower or raise the mixer jack to properly align the drawbar and hitch.
Fasten the mixer hitch to the tractor drawbar with a properly sized hitch pin with safety retainer. (Reference ANSI/ASABE
AD6489-3 Agricultural vehicles - Mechanical connections between towed and towing vehicles - Part 3: Tractor drawbar.)
Connect the tractor half of the PTO drive shaft assembly. The PTO must be locked securely to the tractor output shaft and the implement half of the PTO drive shaft assembly must be locked securely to the mixer drive line.
Before operation and after hitching the tractor to the implement, connect the hydraulic hoses (if applicable) and light cord
to the tractor. Place the jack into the storage position. (See 6.5.1 Jack Storage on page 30.)

6.7.2 Brake Information
Check that the braking and lighting systems are in good condition. Be sure that the tractor has adequate brakes to stop the mixer.
See your tractor / chassis manual for brake and braking Information.
6.7.3 Tractor Towing Size Requirements
Use the following charts to help calculate the minimum tractor weight when towing without implement brakes. The minimum tractor weight, up to 20 mph (33 kph) needs to be 2/3’s of the box Gross Weight (GW). Gross Weight is calculated by the empty weight of the box and undercarriage combined added to the Load Weight. Then take the Gross
Weight and multiply it by 0.667 and you will get the Minimum Required Weight of the Tractor. A tractor with this recommended weight for your machine is normally adequate for towing the loaded machine under average conditions.
Unit weight will vary depending on door and option selected.

7.0 OPERATION
DO NOT allow anyone to operate, service, inspect or otherwise handle this mixer until all operators have read and understand all of the instructional materials in this Operator’s And Parts Manual and have been properly trained in its intended usage.
Before operating the mixer, look in all directions and make sure no bystanders, especially small children are in the work area.
Do not climb or step onto the platform or ladder before the parking brake has been applied.
Turn on level ground. Slow down when turning.
Go up and down slopes, not across them.
Keep the heavy end of the machine uphill.
Do not overload the machine.
Check for adequate traction.
7.1 GENERAL
The mixer is designed for blending dairy and beef rations. The mixer performance can vary according to the difference in material, loading sequence, mixing speed and unloading methods. The following guidelines should be understood before operating the mixer.
A new mixer will need an initial run-in period to polish the augers and mixer sides to achieve correct material movement inside the mixer. Until the unit is polished inside the user may experience material spillage, dead spots, or increased horsepower requirements. The load size may need to be reduced until the unit is polished inside.
Always operate at the rated PTO speed but DO NOT EXCEED THE
RATED PTO SPEED. If the mixer is operated faster than the rated PTO speed the strain on the drive train and mixer is greatly increased.
Do not force hay into the auger with loader or any other device.
Be aware of the overall size of the mixer to allow clearance through doorways.
7.1.1 Material
Never hand feed material into mixer while it is running. Augers may cut or grab hands, clothing, or material being loaded, causing severe injury. Always stop the tractor's engine before hand loading materials.
Some feed materials will need to be processed alone in the mixer before they can be efficiently mixed with other feed materials.
• Large square or round bales of alfalfa
• Large square or round bales of high moisture content
• Large square or round bales of long mixed grasses, wheat or oat hay and crop residue bales (straw or soybean stubble)
• Very light and bulky feed material
NOTE: Always remove any twine, net, or plastic wrap from bales before loading into mixer.

Once you have proper tension, retighten the inner nut (Item 1) on both sides.
8.2.4 Auger Scraper Bar
Check the auger scraper monthly for proper clearance with the side panel. Clearance should not exceed 1/2”. If gap exceeds 1/2”, the scraper should be adjusted.
8.2.5 Auger Timing
Auger timing is critical. Whenever disconnecting the PTO to the two speed gearbox or to one of the planetaries, it is critical that the front leading edge be 225° from the rear leading edge when the rear leading edge is pointing to the front auger.
8.2.6 Torque Disconnect Bolts
Check the bolts (Item 1) on the torque disconnect weekly to assure that the bolts are tightened to standard 232 ft. lbs. for an M16 x 2.00

8.2.7 Knives
Shutoff and lockout power before adjusting, servicing, maintaining, or clearing an obstruction from this machine. Failure to heed may result in serious personal injury or death.
If work must be done inside the mixer put a protective cover over the auger knives to avoid injury. The hopper and flighting may be slippery. Use caution when stepping on or standing inside the mixer.
Knives are designed and intended for processing and mixing rations that include long stem forages.
NOTE: Some rations may require adding or removing knives, or changing knife position to obtain the desired result.
8.2.7.1 Knife Removal
Individual knives may be removed from the auger if the ration does not include hay or includes very small amounts of small square bale hay or tub ground hay. Removing knives will decrease the aggressive cutting action on the stem length of the ration and may also reduce horsepower requirements.
8.2.7.2 Adding Knives
If the hay in your ration is not being processed enough or fast enough extra knives may be ordered through your dealer.
Adding extra knives will help break down and process materials faster, but may increase the horsepower required to process and mix.
8.2.7.3 Knife Placement
The placement of knives towards the bottom of the auger will process the forage faster and make the stem length shorter but may require more horsepower. Placement of knives higher on the auger will assist in breaking up bales faster after initial loading.
8.2.7.4 Knife Position
“Out” Position
When the knives are in the “out” position they tend to move the long stem hay and lighter bulky materials best in the early stages of processing and mixing. This setting may result in feed spillage in certain materials. Knives placed in this setting are very aggressive in processing feed and will also cause an increase in horsepower requirement.
“In” Position
When the knives are in the “in” position they will slow down the long stem hay and lighter bulky materials in the early stages of processing and mixing. Less spillage will occur due to clearance between the knives. This setting is more desirable for heavy rations with long run time and where over processing can occur. Knives placed in this position are less aggressive in processing feed and will reduce the horsepower requirement.
8.2.7.5 Replacing Damaged or Worn Knives
When knives become worn and rounded on the leading edge their efficiency is greatly reduced. This results in longer processing times and increased horsepower requirements. Refer to your parts manual and contact your Meyer MFG dealer for replacement part ordering.
