[Gristmillers] My Seed Cleaner

[Faber McMullen]

John:

Thanks for answering.  I have a tiny little operator's manual that is  
little help.  I did call the folks I bought it from yesterday,
and they told me how to change the fan speed (it barely blows right  
now), by moving the fan belt to different positions on
the pullys.  I couldn't seem to find that info anywhere in the  
manual.    I do have the correct screen sizes in the machine.
I can tell it is a wonderful machine that will serve us for  many years.

Thanks for your reply,
Faber
