The intake ducts for the ventilation system are located at the rear of the machine. The ducts are above the drag conveyors. There is a duct over each drag conveyor. There is a shroud over the drive motors for the auger conveyor. The shroud helps capture the fumes. The shroud helps prevent debris from entering the intake ducts.
Clean the ducts weekly. Use nonflammable solvent in order to clean the ducts.
Dry the ducts before you operate the machine.
The manometer on the stack monitors the amount of air that is being discharged. The manometer will show 15 to 23 mm (.6 to .9 inch) of pressure.
Note: If the pressure drops below 15 mm (.6 inch) of pressure, the ducts may need to be cleaned. If the pressure drops below 15 mm (.6 inch) of pressure, the blower may need to be cleaned.
