NOTE: The above settings are for the newest MCi Kickers that use the Air Damper on the rear of the elbow. If you own an MCi Kicker with the Air Damper mounted on the blower, you will need to call us at 800-279-6812 to request a fax of the older chart settings.
NOTICE: Recommendation for screens used in the MCi KICKER are based upon extensive lab work and verification from field users. Suggested screens sizes allow the fastest, most accurate method to achieve the fairest results. According to FGIS, almost any method may be used by commercial grain handlers to achieve results comparable to official results.
You should check the results of your MCi KICKER with your local official testing station, then adjust the feed, the screen sizes, and the air setting to obtain comparable results. Multiple machines in the same company should be checked against one your Kickers that you have designated as your standard.
Mid-Continent Industries, Inc. will not be held liable for the results obtained from any grain grading process. Operators, installation locations, firmness of the floor it’s setting on will effect the results.
The AIR setting is only a guide. Depending on the test weight of the grain, it may need to be opened more or less as you feel is needed.
