The words Danger, Warning, Caution, and
Notice are used on the safety decals and throughout
this manual, to make you aware of the safety
procedures. These procedures are very important, read
and obey them.
YOUR SAFETY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US!
This machine is equipped with safety decals, guards
and designs for your protection.
Don’t ever take the machine for granted, always be
cautious and careful when operating your equipment.
Read and follow all the instructions in your manual
thoroughly. Your safety is dependent on your
knowledge of how to operate and maintain this machine.
You may obtain additional copies of this manual from
your Smoracy, LLC Dealer.
Before operating recycler, you must have all potential
operators; read and understand manuals, decals, and
watch the video tape and follow all recommendations.
Regardless of how hard a manufacturer tries to
produce a safe machine, accidents still happen.
Normally accidents are caused by people making
mistakes. They do not read the manual, they ignore
warning decals or do not use lockouts provided for their
safety. This normally happens after the person has
become accustomed to the machinery. In the initial
start up and operation of the machinery, they are
cautious, they are very careful because they do not
understand the machine.
This equipment is intended for use by personnel who
are experienced with similar equipment. Always
operate safely. It is also recommended that someone
else is present while operating or servicing in case an
accident should occur. Never operate any machine while
under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Keep children, bystanders and animals clear of
working area. Never operate equipment that is in need
of repair or adjustment.
Before starting the machine, take a minute to check
a few things. The recycler should be in an area
restricted from people passing by. This area around the
recycler must be free of all objects that can obstruct
your movement when working with the machine. The
machine should be checked for loose tools or foreign
objects, especially in the infeed conveyor area. All tools
not in use should be secured in a tool box.
Operators must at all times be located within easy
reach of all feed control and shut-off devices when the
unit is running. Also always be observant and prepared
to activate controls to prevent an accident.
Do Not wear torn or loose clothing it is more likely to
get caught in moving machinery parts. Keep such items
as long hair, shirt sleeves, and shirt tails properly
contained. Avoid wearing necklaces, rings, watches,
and especially neckties while operating this machinery.
Make sure the machine is in excellent condition, and
all the guards are in place, tight and secure.
Wear all personal protection equipment and follow all
safety standards per ANSI and OSHA instructions.
Examples of equipment: hard hat, safety glasses,
gloves, ear protection, etc. Do not wear gauntlet or
secured fit gloves. Always keep a fully charged
type A:B:C fire extinguisher with the machine while
operating or servicing the recycler.

Never stand at the entrance to the Infeed Conveyor or
look over the Infeed Conveyor side panels. Never
attempt to manually dislodge material located on the
Infeed Conveyor while the machine is running. Never
raise Feedwheel Yoke and look inside, or look down
Infeed Conveyor while machine is working.
Entanglement in Infeed Conveyor can cause serious
injury. Stay away from the Infeed Conveyor during
operation. If the conveyor drive is not shut off a stalled
conveyor may restart unexpectedly as the obstruction
is removed. Do not hand feed raw material onto Infeed
Conveyor.
Avoid moving parts. Keep hands, feet, and clothing
away from power driven parts. Keep all guards and
shields in place and properly secured.
Stay away from the Feedwheel and Cutterhead
areas. Never stand close to the Feedwheel assembly
while the machine is running. Never attempt to do work
on a raised Feedwheel without making sure all safety
devices are secured. Always engage the hydraulic Yoke
Lock Bars, and use the Safety Chain to secure the
Feedwheel assembly to the Discharge Belt Conveyor
rest before replacing Cutterhead inserts or bodies.
Follow proper shutdown procedures before beginning
any type of maintenance to the Recycler.
Entanglement in the Discharge Belt Conveyor can
cause serious injury. Stay away from the conveyor
during operation. If the conveyor drive is not shut off a
stalled conveyor may restart unexpectedly as the
obstruction is removed. Avoid the Discharge Belt
Conveyor area. Ejected material can cause serious
injury. Stay away! Stay clear of thrown and falling
objects. Take the following precautions to avoid
injuries from thrown and falling objects: Wear all
applicable safety equipment. Only properly protected
workers are allowed in “thrown object area”. All
machines in “thrown object area” must have overhead
protection. Machines used to load the recycler must
have an enclosed cab. Do not leave controls unattended
while machine is operating. Locate the recycler a safe
distance from buildings, public roads and populated
areas.
NEVER sit, stand, lay, climb or ride anywhere
on this machine while it is running, operating, or in
transit. You will be injured.
To avoid damage to the Discharge Conveyor do not
move the machine with the Conveyor extended. Do not
fold or unfold the Conveyor on uneven ground. Do not
cause abrupt stops when raising or lowering the
Conveyor. Do follow all operation, service and safety
guidelines. Do follow these steps to purge air from the
hydraulic system every time the Conveyor is moved.
1) Place pressure gauge in diagnostic port of valve bank.
2) With Conveyor resting in fold or unfold position,
operate valve to position it further in that direction. Hold
valve position for 4 to 5 seconds until gauge reaches
system pressure. 3) Repeat these steps for second
control valve. Now you may proceed to raise or lower
the Conveyor. Do operate the Conveyor folding actions
with the engine at idle. Do fold the Conveyor upper
section first, then the mid section. NEVER slam the
Discharge Belt Conveyor to a rest.
It is very important after you have operated a new
machine for approximately an hour, shut down the
machine and recheck all nuts and bolts. It is normal for
bolts to loosen once on a new piece of machinery. If
you tighten them now, there is a good possibility they
won’t loosen again. Certain bolts should be checked
periodically such as Cutterbody and Teeth bolts, etc.
for torque and fit.
Most of the nuts used on the Smoracy, LLC
Recycler are self locking. After a nut has been removed
five times, it should be replaced to insure proper
tightness.

Never use jumper cables during freezing temperatures.
Tow the machine inside and allow the battery time to
warm up. Explosion will occur with a frozen battery.
Never use jumper cables in a confined or unventilated
area. Battery acid fumes are explosive. Battery acid
can cause severe burns. Avoid contact with eyes, skin
and clothing. Battery fumes are flammable and can
explode. Never expose an open flame or spark near the
battery. Keep all burning materials away from the
battery. When servicing the battery, do not smoke, shield
eyes and face. Service in a well ventilated area.
DO NOT GO NEAR HYDRAULIC LEAKS! High
pressure oil easily punctures skin causing serious
injury, gangrene, or death. DO NOT use fingers or skin
to check for leaks. Lower load or relieve hydraulic
pressure before loosening fittings. Use a piece of
cardboard to find leaks. Never use your bare hands.
In cold weather situations let your hydraulic system
idle for approximately 15 minutes to allow the system
to warm up to operating temperature. Avoid burns from
fluid. Hot fluid under pressure can cause severe burns.
Relieve all pressure in the system before disconnecting
the lines, hoses or performing other work. Allow
system to cool down to ambient temperature before
opening any coolant or hydraulic oil system.
Inspect raw materials pile for prohibited materials. The
following are examples of prohibited materials to be
avoided. Material and products containing toxic
substances, explosive or flammable materials
including chemicals, liquids, gases, pressurized
containers etc., tires, glass, heavy rigid plastic, sheet
metal, masonry, stone materials, and solid metals.
DO NOT operate this machine indoors! Exhaust
fumes can be fatal. Never refuel while the machine is
running or engine is hot. Never refuel in the shop or
building. Always refuel in a well ventilated area, away
from sparks or open flames, DO NOT SMOKE.
Extinguish all smoking materials. Wipe up all spilled
fuel before restarting the engine. Do not fill above 1/2”
(12.7 mm) from top of tank.
To obtain the most from the recycler, for the least
amount of cost, it is a good practice to set and follow a
scheduled preventative maintenance program. It will
eliminate many possible problems and down time.
Check laws and regulations. Know and obey all
federal, state, and local laws and regulations that apply
to your work situation and the transportation of a
machine this size.

feedwheel is in the lowered position. 4) Make sure all manual hydraulic control valves are in the off position. 5)
Switch engine off and remove ignition key. 6) Stow remote cable controls inside hydraulic compartment. 7) Lock
compartment doors. 8) Clean off all Debris and potential fire hazards from the machine. Along with these procedures
make sure to follow all of the instructions in the “Transportation Procedures” section.
The self activating fire extinguishers located in various places will not stop your machine from burning. They are
there to help put out a fire that may start. If a fire gets going after you have left the machine, they will be ineffective.
You must clean the debris away from the engine and other hot areas before leaving the machine! It is your
responsibility to properly maintain and test the extinguishers as instructed by the directions that come with the fire
extinguisher. If you do not have that information contact Smoracy, LLC.

MODEL 4680 TRACK AUTOFEED SECTION
AUTO FEED SECTION
AUTOFEED SYSTEM
Consult the original manufacturer’s manual for your recyclers
Autofeed operating and maintenance procedures
When processing material through the recycler, the feed system will automatically stop when the
engine drops below a preset RPM point. The engine is constantly being monitored by an adjustable
electronic speed switch. The switch can be adjusted so that at a given RPM, an electronic relay
system will operate the hydraulic solenoid valves. The “Autofeed Plus” system will reverse for a set
period of time and then stop until the engine has recovered speed. The “Autofeed Plus“ system will
then automatically turn the feed on to resume forward travel.
Due to required components and equipment options a recycler may have various types or brands of
“Autofeed Plus” systems. Each recycler is shipped with the original manufacturer’s manual for the
“Autofeed Plus” system it is equipped with.
Do not power wash the digital tach hour meters. Pressure causes unwarranted damage. Do not
spray tach this will void warranty.
