ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Both the #85 and the #100 Rollermills are completely assembled except for
the intake hopper (#57). Bolt the hopper to the top of the rollermill using
bolts supplied with the hopper.
2. An optional stand with braces (#65 & #66) is available for both models.
Bolt the stand underneath the rollermill using 3/8" x 1 ¼” hex bolts, lock
washers and hex nuts for the braces and ½” x 1 ¼” hex bolts on the stand.
3. A belt drive kit consisting of a 15" single pulley, one B-58 V-belt and a
motor mount is supplied with the #85 rollermills. A 3 h.p. electric motor is
required for the motor drive. The #85 can also be run with a PTO shaft.
The #100 rollermill may be purchased with either a belt drive kit consisting
of a 15" double pulley, two B-62 V-belts and a motor mount or a PTO
shaft for PTO drive. A 5 h.p. electric motor is used for the motor drive.
The electric motor pulley must be supplied by the customer. The #85
rollermill requires a 4 ½”, B-groove single pulley. A double 4 ½” pulley is
required for the #100 rollermill electric motors should be 1750 rpm.
4. A magnet for the intake hopper is available as an option for all rollermills.
This will keep small metal objects out of the rolled feed and also prevent
damage to the roller grooves.
5. OPTIONAL PTO DRIVE ONLY: With the engine on the tractor shut off,
attach the PTO shaft. The tractor end has a standard 6-spline end with a
spring loaded locking pin. The rollermill end has a clamp-style yoke with a
3/8" keyway. Slide the yoke onto the roller shaft with the 3/8" key
supplied. Lock the yoke in place with the ½” x 2 ¾” fine thread bolt and
lock nut fitted through the groove in the roller shaft. After tightening the
bolt, insert and tighten the 3/8" socket set screw supplied.
CAUTION: Always check to see that both ends of the PTO shaft are
securely attached every time the rollermill is used. This should always be
done with the tractor engine off.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the Rollermill, check the clearance on the rollers. Place a piece of
newspaper between the rollers and adjust the set screws on either side of the rollermill
till you can feel a slight tension on the paper. The rollers, however, should not touch
each other. It is very important that the rollers are evenly adjusted. To ensure good
rolling results, check roller adjustment regularly and reset if necessary.
Close the gate control (#20) before starting the rollermill. The intake hopper should be
partially full before opening the gate control. Keep the hopper partially filled at all times
while the rollermill is running. This will allow the grain to be rolled evenly across the
width of the roller and will result in more uniformly rolled feed. It also helps prevent the
rollers from wearing unevenly. Before stopping the rollermill, close the gate control
while there is still grain in the hopper. When the grain remaining in the machine has all
been crushed, shut off the machine immediately. The gate control is left closed until the
machine is started again.
To regulate the type of rolled feed one wants, use the adjusting screw (#47). Increased
pressure will result in finer and flatter feeds. Decreasing the tension will give you a
coarser feed. The roller bearing should be greased approximately every 80 hours or
once a season if used less.
ALERT: When replacing bearings or tightening a loose bearing collar, always tighten
collar in the direction of shaft rotation using a center punch or a similar tool.
