(4)Please execute the special regulations on accidents prevention in the operation manual
provided by us.

(5)The enterprises are obligated to execute following regulations to guarantee operators'

safety.

①The coupling shield should be amounted mounted at any moment and keep closing. It is
very dangerous when they are opened or disassembled. It may cause casualty accident. This
is also applicable for the preventive device of the manipulator.
②The safety limit switches should always be kept in good order. Overlap or discard of the
safety limit switches is not allowed.
③The driving motor must be switched off completely to make the machine stop when
carrying out inspection, commissioning, repair and maintenance. This can be done through a

6
 full-phase separating and lockable switch which is installed near the machine or on the
operation desk, or the control panel on the site. It is not enough only to screw off the fuse
wire!
④If the machine needs other energy like pneumatic, hydraulic, steam and hot water energy, it
is necessary to cut off their energy supply or turn off the switch, and eliminate the pressure in
the internal pipeline system of the machine.
⑤As for handling heated or cooled parts and components of the machine, especial care
should still be taken for the danger of burning, to prevent any scald.
⑥If you have pressed the emergency stop switch to stop the machine and you want to reset
the switch, so it is not permissible to only re-press this button to restart the machine.And the
machine can only be started by re-closing the main switch first.
⑦If some machines are equipped with a local shutdown system, especial care should be
taken. Read the instruction manuals attached with the machine carefully. In such machines
with a local shutdown system, temperature will rise because pressure or vacuum will occur
after they have been used for a period.
⑧The cleaning, lubricating and oiling of the machine or its parts and components may be
carried out only when the machine is stopped. If you have to climb on or enter the machine to
do such work, the mandatory provisions shall be made without exception: the power supply of
motors must be cut off completely and the switch must be locked. Attention must be paid to
safety measures for climbing.
⑨Be careful, sampling from inside the machine can never be carried out unless there is not
any danger. Usually, the samples can be taken from the pipe under the machine instead of
inside machine.
⑩Clear off the deposited dust, dirties and materials frequently. Keeping the machine clean
can enhance production safety and the cleaning level of workshop, and is also beneficial to
prevent dust explosion.
⑾ If oil (grease) leakage occurs, clean it immediately and seal well the place where leakage
occurs. For oil or grease leaked on the floor will easily bring about hazards to the operators.
⑿In production operation, the machine must be equipped with safety devices, which may be
neither removed and abandoned nor reduced in functions. Otherwise, we are not responsible
for any accidents resulted here from, and reserve the right to ascertain where the
responsibility lies.
1.8 Explosion Protection: Countermeasures against dust explosion and fire hazard
(1)Common cleaning work

①Keeping the working site with combustible dust clean is an important condition for safe
production.

② Try not to pile bagged or bulk materials between machines.

③ In order to reduce dust emission to surrounding areas, all conveying devices, air pipe,

7
filtering bag should be kept in good condition. Especially, the unsealing of pipes or top covers
should be avoided.

④ In order to reduce dust explosion hazard, dust everywhere must be cleaned out frequently
and effectively.

⑤ Keep all motors free of deposited dust.

(2)Regular inspection and maintenance

① Check the safety devices such as speed monitor or the like regularly, at least once a week.

② Check and clean the magnetic separators, at least once a day.

③ In order to avoid heat generation, it is necessary to regularly check the functions of all main
shafts and bearings, at least once a week, and to regularly fill up lubricating oil.

(3)Electric apparatus

Regularly check the electric apparatus and articles, and special attention should be paid to the
following points:

①It is forbidden to use any flashlights and other lamps without shielding or explosion-proof
glass.
②It is forbidden to use any lengthened cable or electric furnace.
③It is necessary to immediately repair or replace the electric apparatus and equipment if any
failure occurs.
④The cables without conduits are not allowed to be installed on the floor.
⑤ Cut off the power supply of the machine after work.
⑥An electrician should be assigned to check the insulation of all the lines of electric network
according to relevant regulations on heavy current, at least once a year.
⑦The machine should be grounded so as to avoid static sparks and the leakage
resistance from all components to ground should not exceed 106Ω.
⑧Power supply connection
a) The related regulations of local safety authorities department should be obeyed. For
example, a breaker for circuit protection should be installed on power wire according to local
regulation.
b) Check whether the operating voltage and frequency are in line with the data displayed on
the machine nameplate and control cabinet.
c) All power wires of control system should be connected as per schematic diagram,
so as to realize actual switch of the phase line when using a single-phase source.
(4)Smoking and welding

① Smoking is forbidden, which is applicable to all workers and staff of the enterprise as well
as guests, customers, foreigners and drivers visiting the factory.
②If the tools such as welding machine or soldering lamp (flame soldering lamp) etc. are

8
 required for repair or installation, do as best as possible to arrange the work in a special
workshop or on a special site.
③If it is necessary to carry out welding or the like directly in production area or storehouse
once in a while, written applications must be submitted to a related supervisor in advance for
written approval. The above mentioned operations can be carried out only when special
safety measures have been taken, such as laying pieces of water soaked canvas or canvas
special for covering on the surrounding area and preparing fire extinguishers. After
completion of the operation,the welding site and the surrounding area are to be monitored at
least for 10h.
④The gas cutting sparks are very dangerous, for people can't see where they will fly on earth.
They can cross through the narrow clearance of walls and drop downstairs or to the next
rooms, or even fly off10m away in distance. If the sparks drop in dusts, fire hazard may occur
at any time.

⑤Welding is prohibited on a running conveyor. If the welding work is necessary, shut down
the machine first, and then make a thorough cleaning and isolate both sides of the welding
site tightly with materials like mineral wool to avoid connecting with other conveying devices,
silos or tanks. If the work is to be done on the chutes or conveying pipes, it is necessary to
disassemble them or divert their lower ends and seal them to avoid welding sparks entering
the conveying pipes or silos.
(5) Effect of static electricity

① In order to ensure the safety of electric circuits and avoid explosion resulted from spark
discharge.

② The paint coat at the electric connections must be removed.

1.9 Other attention points (environmental protection measurements)

5.1 Attention points for operations
Note: When operation is implemented on the machine, besides the safety points specified in Chapter 1,
the regulation items of the owner's enterprise shall also be obeyed.

(1) Pay attention to the place where the dangerous marks are attached when operating.

(2) The safety protection devices can never be dismounted, covered or overlapped at will.

5.2 Preparation for work

Following works should be carried out before startup:

(1)Open the main door and adjust the cutting knives far away from ring die surface;

(2)Clean the pelletizing chamber and the magnetic separating devices and check the feeder
and conditioner;

(3)Check the ring die for correct installation and the press rollers for proper adjustment. Pay
attention to the adjustment of the clearance between press rollers and ring die.

(4)Fill lubricating oil according to the lubrication diagram;

(5)Observe whether the oil level in oil box of hydraulic system is normal or not (if a hydraulic
system is equipped).

(6)Start the hydraulic pump motor and check the manometer for proper pressure value. In
the first operating day, these rated values should be checked in required intervals, if
necessary, readjustment can be done to make the reading correct (if a hydraulic system is
equipped).

(7)Start the feeder motor and the conditioner motor without load to check if the rotation
direction is correct and if there any noise; and then shut them down when the feeder runs
at a low speed.

(8)Start the main motors, firstly check and ensure that all components of the pellet mill can
work normally and the ring die rotates in clockwise viewing from the front side, and then
inspect the contact condition between press rollers and the inner surface of ring die, which
are required to rotate smoothly. (start the hydraulic motor before start the main motors if a
hydraulic system is equipped.)

(9)Check the speed displayed on velocimetries. Usually, the displayed speed values of
MUZL600 (75 kW×2) and MUZL600X（75kW×2 and 55kW×2）Pellet Mill running without
load are 1330 r/min, and the displayed speed values of MUZL600(55kW×2) Pellet Mill
running without load is 950 r/min. Check and adjust it again if the figures are not correct. The
lower limit of the velocimetries should be set at 1250r/min and 900 r/min respectively.

(10)Check the steam system for normal working and the steam pressure shall be
0.1~0.4MPa.

22
5.3 Pelletizing
To start a new pellet mill or a pellet mill that working with a new ring die, please refertofollowing steps:

(1)Start up the hydraulic motor (if a hydraulic system is selected)

(2)Start up the main motors of the pellet mill. The two motors shall be started up in Y
connection concurrently, while under normal operation speed run one motor in delta
connection firstly, and then the other about five seconds later.

(3)Feed a certain amount of oily coarse mash to the inlet of pellet mill manually, and
continue feeding until pellet is formed and compressed out of ring die. This is to lubricate
ring die before normal production.

(4)Start the conditioner motor.

(5)Start feeder motor, adjust the frequency converter to a low frequency level and let feed
mash enter into the conditioner and then the pelletizing chamber slowly. Do not add any
steam at the beginning of pelletizing, and slowly quicken the feeding speed according to the
current of the main motor.

(6)Open the steam valve a bit, then properly increase feeding rate until the ammeter's
pointer is falling back. When the current value ofmain motor is in the range of normal load,
increase steam adding amount until the ammeter's pointer to fall back. Repeat this again
and again until the maximum output and the best quality of pellet are obtained under the
rated load.

(7)A schematic diagram of pellet extrusion is shown in Fig. 5-1. The feeding amount and
steam supply are different upon the types of ring die and formulas, and the pellet quality
varies as well. So the operator shall be rich in operating experience.

23

5.4 Shutdown
Stop the pelletmillas follows：

(1)Stop the liquid adding device, steam adding device and feeder before pellet mill.

(2)Wait until no pellet is compressed out of the ring die, stop the main motors.

(3)If the machine needs to stop for a period, for example, when the working days are finished, it must be
fed with oily mash material manually until feed pellet is compressed out of ring die. This will facilitate the
normal working of ring die next time when the Pellet Mill works again.

(4)Stop the two main motors when there is no oily pellet being compressed out of the ring die.

(5)Stop the hydraulic pump motor (if it configured).

5.5 Protective measures for pellet mill

Attention points:

① This pellet mill shall be operated by trained and designated workers.

② All rotary parts should be provided with guard shield to prevent touching at will. The protective device
can only be dismantled by spanner.

③ A safety switch is installed on the door of the pellet mill to ensure that the pellet mill cannot be started
up when the door is opened.

④ A safety switch should be mounted on the driving motor for switching off each phase, and it should be
24
locked. This switch can be mounted nearby the pellet mill or on the console or control panel of this
equipment. This safety switch can be used for shutting down this equipment for maintaining.

⑤ When maintenance, the protective gloves (maximum temperature up to 100℃), safety shoes with
steel sheet, and safety helmet should be wore.

(1) Personel safety protection device (see Fig.5-2)

The gate of pellet mill is equipped with a travel switch (1). When closing the gate of pellet mill, the travel
switch contact is under the state of normal close, at this time the pellet mil can be started. When opening
the gate of pellet mill, the travel switch contact is under the state of normally open, at this time the pellet
time can not be started so as to service the function of safety protection.

Fig.5-2 Safety switch of pellet mill gate

(2) Safety device of the machine

Safety pin type overload protection device (Fig.5-3)

Fig.5-3 Safety pin type overload protection device

① When there is hard foreign matter entering into the pelletizing chamber or when the material flow rate
is too high, the working pressure between press rollers and ring die will exceed the normal working
pressure and friction resistance between press rollers and ring die will increase consequently.

25
② Because the rollers are installed on main shaft while the ring die is installed on the rotor, when the
rotor is running, ring die will drive the rollers to rotate and pass a rotating force onto the main shaft.

③ When the torque on main shaft reaches a certain design value, the shear force will be transferred to
the safety pin (1) that installed on the rear end of the main shaft. When shear force exceeds the limit of
safety pin, it will be sheared off.

④ At this time, the main shaft is rotating and drives the limit switch (2) to act and stop main motors of
pellet mill.

[Note]: (a) Before restart the pellet mill, reset the main shaft and install with new safety pin.
(b) The safety pin shall be provided by Muyang Holdings Co.,Ltd , otherwise any quality accident or other
accidents arising from the safety pin not produced by Muyang Holdings Co.,Ltd shall not be the responsibility of
Muyang Holdings Co.,Ltd.

Hydraulic clamping type overload protection device (Fig.5-4)

1

Fig.5-4 Hydraulic clamping type overload protection device

① The protection principle of hydraulic clamping type is similar to that of safety pin type. The safety pin
is replaced by the band brake (1), so that the main shaft is not rotated by the friction between the friction
plate of bank brake and the break disk during normal working.

② When the pellet mill under overload or there is hard foreign matter entering into the pelletizing
chamber, the friction resistance between press rollers and ring die will exceed the friction force between
clamping device and the brake disk, and the main shaft will rotate together with the rotor, at this time, the
travel switch (2) will act to cut the motor power of pellet mill for overload protection.

26
③ The friction force between clamping device and brake disk can be easily set by adjusting the oil
pressure of hydraulic system (3), which is usually preset prior to delivery.

Note: 1) Before restart the pellet mill, the main shaft must be reset, before which the hydraulic pressure
should be released. And after reseting the main shaft, the hydraulic pressure must be restored to
required value (for operation details please refer to the section “Hydraulic System”).

2) Compared to safety pin overload protection device, hydraulic clamping type is easier to
operate without replacing safety pin.

(3) Emergency discharge device (Fig.5-5)

A by-pass door is provided at the conical feeding inlet of pelletizing chamber. When feed mash enter
into ring die in a fast speed, it will accumulate in the pelletizing chamber, and the load on motor increased
accordingly. Once the load on motors exceeds the rated value, the pneumatic cylinder will open the
by-pass door automatically to discharge feed mash. After the motor load returns to normal range, the
by-pass door will be closed automatically and the machine will continue to run normally.

(4) Safety speed sensor

①A safety speed sensor is amounted nearby the belt pulley of countershaft to sense its rotation speed.

② A speed sensor instrument is available on the control plate to display the rotation speed of
thecountershaft belt pulley, and based on which the minimum rotation speed of it can be set.

③When the pellet mill is overloaded or the V-belt too loose to skid, main motors of pellet mill will be
stopped immediately in case of sensing the rotation speed of countershaft belt pulley less than the
rated value, so as to prevent the V-belt from damage.

27
(5)Magnetic separating device (Fig.5-6)

The magnetic separating device between the discharge outlet of conditioner and the feeding inlet of pellet
mill can effectively separate the iron tramp mixed in materials to protect ring die and press roller from
damage.

① Don not operate the pellet mill without load for a couple of time.

② It is necessary to flush the die holes with oil-rich feed mash if changing production or before
shutdown the machine or ong time.

③ Check the abrasion condition of ring die in regular. If uneven abrasion, it is capable to install the ring
die reversely for 180°production.

④ The ring die can be installed frontward and reversely to ensure the working surface of ring die and
press rollers wearing uniformly. So it is suggested to change ring die installation direction regularly, for
example, change it once after every production of 1000 tons of feed.

⑤ Expand the die holes again if they are sealed by pressing.

⑥ Clean the material and dirt from the screw holes before installation.

⑦ Replace sheared bolts with new ones timely.

6.5.5 Press roller
(1)Press roller introduction

① The shell of press rollers is made of wear-resistant alloy by metal machining and heat treatment.

② The roller shell surface patterns have a certain impacts on pelletizing performance.

③ Muyang Holdings Co.,Ltdmainly manufactures three kinds of surface patterns: honeycomb, tooth
socket, tooth socket with sealed edge.

1) Honeycomb and tooth socket press rollers are mainly used for pelletizing feeds for livestock
and poultry.

2) The honeycomb press roller features itself uniform wearing of ring die, but poor material
traction.

3) The tooth socket press roller is good in material traction performance, and is widely used in
feed mills; however, it brings about non-uniform wearing on the ring die.

4) The roller of tooth socket and with seal edge is mainly applicable for pelletizing feeds for
aquatic animals, and the feedstuffs under processing are not apt to slip towards two end sides.

(2) Assembling and disassembling of press rollers on pellet mill

Dismount the press rollers from the pellet mill according to following steps:

① Cut off power supply, adjust the cutting knife far away from ring die and open the pellet mill gate.

② Loosen the four special bolts on the rotary feeding cone, clockwise turn the rotary feeding cone
and remove it.

③ Loosen the four bolts on rotary conical pulley and dismount rotary conical pulley

④ Loosen the three lock nuts at the end of the press roller support shaft.

⑤ Adjust the press roller as far as possible away from the ring die.

⑥ Dismount the adjusters of all press rollers.

⑦ Dismount the front plate assembly of press roller.

⑧ Install the lifting device of ring die and the lifting frame of press rollers on the lifting beam, and fix
the lifting frame of press roller to the outer end surface of eccentric shafts, then withdraw the lifting
beam, so that the press rollers can be disassembled.

Note: It is better to dismount the one on top first when disassembling rollers.

41
(3)The installation procedures of press roller are as follows:

① Thoroughly clean the cone seat of the main shaft disc, cone end of eccentric shafts of press
rollers and supporting shafts of press rollers before lifting the rollers.

② Install the lower press roller first. Hoist the press roller with a lifting frame that attached to the
lifting beam of ring die, and install it on the supporting shaft of roller.

③ Rotate the press roller counterclockwise until it touchs the ring die.

④ For the installation of other press roller to repeat the above procedures.

⑤ Clean the two holes for installation on the front plate assembly, place the front plate on the two
eccentric shafts of press roller, at the same time ensure that the large deflection scraper must in the
clock position of 5:30.

⑥ Mount two regulators of press rollers and lock nuts, leave the lock nuts non-tightened first.

⑦ Adjust the press roller to the appropriate position as described in section "Adjustment of press
roller", and the lock the lock nuts.

⑧ Reinstall the front flange of ring die and the rotary feeding cone.

Fig.6-7 Schematic diagram of rotation direction of press roller and ring die

Proper clearance can ensure normal pelletizing process and to prolong the service life of press rollers and
ring die. Adjustment of the press roller must be carried out strictly obeying the following procedures (see
Fig.6-6, 6-7):

① Loosen the three lock nuts (2) for pressing the front support assembly.

② Regulate the locking nut (6) on roller adjusting screw (5)on the front plate, lead the press rollers
close to the ring die anticlockwise, at the same time, turn the ring die and the press rollers for one
circle respectively, it is better to make the highest points of the inner surface of ring die contacted
slightly with that of the outer surface of press rollers, and then lock the locknuts of press roller
adjustors.

43
 ③ If the adjustors of press rollers are adjusted to their limited position, but the clearance between
the press roller and ring die is not adjusted properly yet, it is necessary to remove the adjustor (1) of
press roller, turn it to another position and install it again, and then continue the adjustment
procedures.

④ Adjust the other two rollers in the same way.

⑤ Lock the three locknuts of press rollers.

[Attention points]:

① Clean the surfaces of the ring die and press roller thoroughly when adjusting rollers.

② Ensure that the press roller close to the ring die by rotating in counterclockwise, otherwise, the
press roller and the ring die may be locked and may cause severe loss.

③ Readjust the press rollers if it is found after startup that gap is too big or too small.

④ If the two press rollers are used for a long time without replacement, check the locknuts for any
loosening regularly, e.g. check once every four shifts.

⑤ In addition, the press roller should be rejusted or replaced in following case: decreased
throughput, increased current of main motor or the material blockage.

[Suggestions]:

① The adjustment of press roller is associated with the variety of feed mash to be processed. For
example, the clearance between the press rollers and the ring die can be much bigger when
pressing feed mash with higher starch content that is easier to be pressed.

② If ring die with small die holes are used, the inlets of holes are liable to be pressed and sealed if
the gap between rollers and ring die are too tight. In this case, the ring die cannot be used for
production anymore and it is necessary to expand the die holes again.

③ If one ring die works for a long time, it is required to check its abrasion degree and position
regularly, and adjust the position of press roller if necessary.

(5)Assembly and disassembly of press roller shell

Refer to Fig.6-8 and the following sequence to replace the press roller shell and bearings if
necessary:

① Open the locking tenon of stopping washer(part 2);

② Remove the round nut (part 1) and stopping washer(part 2);

③ Remove the seal ring at the left end (Part 3);

④ Remove the circlip at the left end (Part 4);

⑤ Remove the whole seal ring (Part 6) including oil real(Part5);

⑥ Put a copper drift punch at the thread end of the eccentric shaft(Part12) and knock quickly, so
as to remove the eccentric shaft on the bearing;
44
 ⑦ Remove the seal board, seal ring and oil seal at the right end, which may have been removed
in Step 6;

⑧ Remove the outer circlip (Part9) on press roller shell, and punch out the bearing of pres roller
(Part7).

Reassemble the shell of press roller in the reverse order as shown above.

Fig.6-8 Schematic diagram for structure assembling of press roller

(6) Adjustment of clearance press roller bearing (see Fig. 6-9)

① Before adjusting the clearance, apply lubricating grease for the bearing till it overflows from the
bearing end cover.

② Bearing clearance is adjusted by locknut (2) on the press roller.

③ Put the press roller on a workbench with laying two sizing blocks (3) between them.

④ Screw the locknut (2) gradually and rotate the eccentric shaft (1) simultaneously.

⑤ Press the magnetic base of the dial gauge on the shell of the press roller.

⑥ Lift the eccentric shaft up to measure the bearing clearance, and normally the bearing clearance
is0.12-0.15mm.

⑦ Use a stopping washer (4) to lock the locknut.

6.5.6 Ring die driving rim

(1)Inspection of clearance between ring die and driving rim

The load on ring die and the quality of ring die greatly affect the service life of the driving rim.

If several installation bolts of ring die have broken during operation, it means that the driving rim should be
discarded and shall be replaced with a new one timely in order to produce safely.

(2)Replacement of driving rime

Replace the driving rim according to following steps (see Fig.6-10):

① Remove the ring die, press roller and three scrapers on main shaft disc;

(3) Application of semi-automatic lubricating distributer

① The semi-automatic lubricating distributor is generally applied in methods of lubrication, as
shown in the Figure 6-12. It consists of oil pipe joint, filter, oil pipe, rotary joint, inner core of
distributor, outer case of distributor and handle etc. There is a marking point scored on the outer
case of distributor and four marking points on the inner core of distributor, among the oilways
relating to these four marking points, one is connected with the bearing of main shaft and three
ones are connected with the bearing of press roller.

② The oil pipe joint should be connected with the pneumatic lubricating pump, and the pneumatic
lubricating pump should be provided with 4~6 Bar compressed air prior to operation.

③ When lubricating the pellet mill, pull the handle, make the marking point on the outer case of
distributor aligned with one of marking points on the inner core of distributor, and then open the
control valve for compressing air, the pneumatic lubricating pump is started, when you hear a sound
of beating oil like “pop, pop” for 10~15 minutes, shut off the switch of compressed air.

④ Turn the handle to another marking point on the inner core of distributor, and fill in the lubricating
oil in the same way.

⑤ Fill the oil other two marking point in the same way.

Precautions:

1. Be sure the compressed air is shut off when pulling the handle;

2. The handle should be aligned with any marking point when stopping lubrication;

48
 3. The pellet mill shall be filled fully with oil prior to startup everyday, observe the palletizing
chamber during filling oil, when the bearing of press roller or bearing of main shaft is full of oil,
the lubricating oil shall flow out from the end gap between press rollers or the front disc of main
shaft;

4. Avoid the operation of lubricating pump without load during filling oil.

6.5.8 Adjustment of support bar for motor

A certain vibration will be caused during running of the pellet mill, which will result in loosening of
fasteners like bolt and nut. The specific attention should be paid to fastening of components to bear the
bigger load in the pellet mill, shown as Fig.6-13 and combined with above Fig 6-12 semi-auto lubricating
distributor.

Support bar for motor

and locking nut

Fig.6-13 Support bar for motor

49
Support bar for motor can take effect for supporting the motor plate and adjusting the tightness of V-belt,
the locknut in support bar must be locked after adjusting, otherwise, the V-belt will be loosened easily, and
also the efficiency of pellet mill and the service life of V-belt will be reduced.

[Special attention]:

All fasteners in pellet mill should be kept locking, and the important parts must be operated according to
methods and requirements in Operation Manual.

6.5.9 Cutting knives assembly

Adjust the position of the cutting knife based on the pellet length required.

Generally, the length of the pellet is about 2~3 times of the pellet diameter.

Adjust the position of the cutting knives as follows.

1. Before startup, open the gate of the pellet mill and watch the position of the cutting knife, and
then loosen clamp handle (11) of the cutting knife and position clamp handle (13), meanwhile pull
knife bar (7) by handle (14) to make the blade close to the ring die about 5~10 mm away (if it is a
thin blade, make the knife edge press close to the ring die), and then lock the clamp handle and
position clamp handle.

2. Adjust the other cutting knife in the same way.

3. Finely adjust the cutting knives to a satisfied length based on the pellet length produced, and
fix the clamp handle (11) and position clamp handle (13) after startup.

6.5.10 Hydraulic system

Note: hydraulic system is an optional function for MUZL600 type pellet mill.

The oil pressure in hydrqulic system of pellet mill has already been set properly prior to exworks. However,
the pressure should be checked still, readjust the oil pressure and exhaust the residual air in the system
before starting the pellet mill if necessary. (See Fig.6-15)

Fig.6-15 Schematic diagram of air release procedure

(1) Air release procedure of hydraulic brake:

51
 ① Check whether the oil discharge plug of oil box is tightened or not.

② Unscrew the oil filling plug, and fill the recommended hydraulic oil in the oil box if necessary until
it reaches the correct oil level which can be checked by the probe on the oil filling plug.

③ The air in system can be released according to following sequence, firstly from the lower anchor
ear, then the middle anchor eqr and finally top anchor ear.

④ Start the motor of hydraulic pump, at this time the readings on the pressure gauge (Fig.6-16,
Part 9) of actuator hydraulic system of MUZL600 Type shall be 105 bar.

⑤ If the pressure gauge shows a wrong value, the pressure relief valve (Fig.6-16, Part 5) can be
readjusted. The pressure will increase by turning the pressure relief valve clockwise while it will
decrease by turning anticlockwise.

⑥ Remove the rubber cap (see the arrow head as shown in Fig.6-15) from the rear deflating valve
in the lower anchor ear.

⑦ Mount a small rubber tube in the deflating valve and place its open end into a jar or bottle.

⑧ Loosen the deflating valve a little by an open end wrench, thus, a small amount of oil or air will
flow out (overflow) from the anchor ear through the soft tube. Once all air is released, the air release
of anchor ear is finished.

⑨ Tighten up the deflating valve, remove the soft tube and press the rubber cap on the deflating
valve.

⑩ Release the air from other anchor ears in the same way.

Note:

Firstly deflate the air from the lower anchor ear, secondly the middle one and finally the top one. Every
time after replacement of oil and maintemance of hydraulic system have been completed, the air should
be released from anchor.

Finally, check the pressure, namely it should conform to the specified pressure, readjust the pressure if
necessary.

2. Replacement of oil

The oil should be replaced once after operating firstly for 400 hours, and then replace it once yearly (in
case oil is polluted, the oil can be replaced in advance).

If refill or replace the oil, firstly unscrew and remove the oil filling plug of oil box, and then pour the oil into
the oil return filter.

Completely clean the hydraulic device prior to oil filled in its oil box, and the oil must be clean. When
removing the cap of oil return filter, it is required to avoid dust and smudgy matter fallen into the filter, the
filter element of oil return filter may be replaced if necessary. The hydraulic oil can be filled in the system
through the oil return filter. It must be ensured that no dust and smudgy matter fall into the oil during filling.

3. The filter element of oil return filter shall be checked every six months, and a new filter may be mounted
if necessary.

6.5.11Replacement of conditioner paddles

(1) Inspection on wearing conditions of paddles

Maximum abrasion loss of the paddles shall be 5mm, and when the wearing close to such value, replace
the paddle with new one.

Phenomena of abrasion:

① Throughput decreases

② Poor mixing result.

③ Machine blockage.

④ More and more feed mashaccumulate on the inner wall of conditioner barrel.

(2)Disassembly and installation of paddles

If only some paddles need to be replaced, the operation can be done from the access doors of the
conditioner. However, if it is necessary to replace all paddles, it must to disassemble the main shaft of
conditioner.

The adjustment of paddle: Loosen the fixing nut of paddle, and regulate the angle of paddle as the
practical production required, and then tighten the nut again.

Replace all paddles in following steps if necessary (see Fig.6-17):

① Remove the belt pulley and its hood.

② Remove the bearing covers and the bearing locking sleeve at both ends of the main shaft.

③ Remove the bearing, bearing seat and seal at any end according to the site condition.

④ Loosen the fixing bolts of flange at the same end and remove the end flange.

⑤ Withdraw paddle main shafts.

54
⑥ Remove the paddles and a section of feeding screw with a wrench.

Install the paddles according to following steps:

① Mount the paddles and one section of feeding screw on the main shaft, the paddles that marked in
Figure should be adjusted with a wrench at an angle of 90°against the conditioner shaft, and other
paddles shall be at an angle of 5o°.

② Put the main shaft that installed with paddles into the conditioning barrel.

③ Install the end flanges, shaft end seals, bearing seats and seals orderly.

The working principle and operation flow of the control box are shown as follows:
(1)Commissioning process:
a) Make sure all the preparation works for pellet mill running are ready, and the electricconnectionhave
been completed.
b) And then close circuit break one by one.
c) Release the emergency stop button E-STOP.
d) Switch the unlocking switch SA1 to the unlocking position, start up and shut down each electric motor
to check whether it can work normally.
(2)Normal startup process:
Switch the unlocking switch SA1 to the interlock position, trigger Start Button SB3+, start up the main
motors of pellet mill and wait for one minute till it running stably, trigger Start Button SB2+ to start up the
conditioner, wait for 30 seconds and then trigger Start Button SB+ to start up the motor of feeder.
(3)Explanation of working process:
a) The feeding frequency can be changed by adjusting the knob RP2 so as to change the feeding amount,
frequency meter PF1 can display the real-time operating frequency of feeding motor.
b) Temperature instrument U2 can display the real-time Material Temperature at the discharge outlet of
conditioner, while the Material Temperature at the discharge outlet can be adjusted by changing the
steam adding amount in conditioner.
c) Speed measuring instrument U3 can display the real-time running speed of the pellet mill.
d) Shut down the feeding motor when the working current of main motors of pellet mill exceeds rated
value or it increases rapidly within the range of rated current, switch the selecting switch SA2 to act the
solenoid valve of by-pass, so as to open the by-pass gate, and let feeds running out of by-pass and
reduce the load on main motors. Wait until load on motor load fallen to 50% of its rated value, restart the
feeder, and increase the feeding amount gradually.
(4)Stopping process:
Shut down the feeder first, wait for ca.10 minutes and then shut down the conditioner. Wait until the
working current fallen to the rated current range, stop the main motors and cut off main switch.
The handlings of electric leakage, electric shock, machine stoppage or severely overload: Press the
emergency stop button immediately to avoid accidents happening on people and motors.

66
Attention!
(1)All cables shall be with a specification of0.75mm2;

(2)The user must configure an over-voltage protection device for the power supply.

(3)In order to ensure safety, it is necessary to install a safety switch nearby the pellet mill (an
emergency stop switch or a lock-up maintenance switch).

(4)The above schematic diagrams are only for the independent operation of the pellet mill, the
interlocking of the pellet mill with its upstream and downstream processing equipment should
be taken into account in process design.

(5)Check the wiring at least once a year to ensure the insulation of the electric wiring in good
condition.

(3)Safety pin assembly
Main components of safety pin assembly are shown in Fig. 6-22.

Safety pin (3) serves the main function that when large tramp iron or other impurities enter into the space
between press roller and ring die and the torque transmitted from the main shaft exceeds the safe shear
force, the safety pin will be sheared off and the main shaft will rotate along rotor, at this moment, the limit
switch (5) act and the main motor stop working so as to protect ring die and press roller from damage.

After the safety pin sheared, it is required to reset the safety pin disc,then replace a new safety pin as
shown in Figure.

(4) Pelleting chamber assembly

Main components of main shaft assembly are shown in Fig 6-23.

If the guide bar on rotating feeding cone assembly of pelletizing chamber are worn out, they need to be
re-welded, otherwise it will affect the feedstock uniformity and reduce the production.
The matching conical surface between rotating conical wheel ring (2) and ring die should be replaced
timely when it is worn out, or it will result in fracture of ring die.
Feeding deflecting plate are divided in to long, middle and short three piece.Please install according to
the position in the figure.
