MODEL 3680 DECALS
DECALS
Decals located on your Bandit equipment contain useful information to assist you in operating your equipment
safely. Some of the decals on your machine and their location are shown in this section.
It is very important that all decals remain in place and in good condition on your machine. Please follow
the care and instructions given below.
1. You should use soap and water to keep your decals clean. Never use mineral spirits or any other
abrasive cleaners.
2. Immediately replace any missing or damaged decals. The location the decal is going to be applied
to must be clean and dry, and at least 40°F (5°C) before applying decal.
3. When the need arises to replace a machine component with a decal attached, be sure and replace
the decal.
4. Replacement decals are available, and can be purchased from the manufacturer or your Bandit Dealer.
5. Peel back about half of the backer paper on the decal. Position it on the flat, dry, clean surface so it
is smooth and secure. Peel off the remainder of the backer paper as you continue to stick the decal
on the surface.
6. Rub decal from the center outward to remove air bubbles and to secure contact.
7. Combination English / Spanish decals are typically standard. Other foreign language decals are
available and may be purchased. Mail translated decals required to Bandit Industries, Inc.

CONTROLS
PRIMARY CONTROLS
Controls for the recycler are located in the control
cabinet on the right side of the machine. The recycler
is operated by means of a dual control system. All
valves function manually and some of these same
valves are controlled electrically by the tether remote
control or the radio remote control.
DEUTSCH SOCKET
Attachment of the tether remote umbilical cord
is via a Deutsch socket. The cord and push button
Control Cabinets
station can be removed by unscrewing the Deutsch
plug from its socket. Deutsch Socket Amber Light
IGNITION SWITCH
Before starting the engine make sure that the
clutch is not engaged. Turn the ignition switch one
stop to the ON p osition. This will turn on the electrical
system. Then turn the ignition switch all the way to
the right and hold until the engine starts. There will
be a five second delay, during this time a beeping
sound will be heard alerting anyone near the machine
that it is starting.
Also the amber warning lights on the side of
the infeed will cycle letting you know that they are
working.
RADIO REMOTE CONTROL
In addition to the primary and tether remote,
the machine can also be controlled by a standard
radio control up to a distance of three hundred feet
and p ossibly further depending on the machine
surroundings. The radio receiver is mounted inside
the control panel of the machine. Ignition

CONTROLS
! WARNING
Make sure you are in manual mode before running any hydraulic function for maintenance. See
previous page for a reference of the manual valve controls.
CONTROLS
7. Discharge Conveyor Fold Up / Down:
The discharge conveyor must be stowed in the folded position when moving the machine. Before folding
or unfolding the discharge conveyor, make sure the engine is at idle and everyone is clear from the work
area around the machine.
Before folding or unfolding, operate the valve to position the discharge further in the current position. Hold
the valve position for 4-5 seconds until the pressure gauge reaches system pressure. Repeat this procedure
for both conveyor fold valves. This will purge the hydraulic system of any air.
To unfold the discharge conveyor in the operating position: first pull the 2nd discharge conveyor fold control
handle until the mid section is fully extended. Then unfold the upper section by pulling the 1st discharge fold
control handle until the upper section is fully extended.
To fold the discharge conveyor in the transport position: first push the 1st discharge fold control handle
away from you until the upper section is fully folded. Then push the 2nd discharge fold control handle away
from you until the discharge conveyor comes to rest on the discharge conveyor support.
! DANGER
Do not slam the discharge conveyor to a stop. Always feather the controls to allow a smooth stop. Slamming
the discharge conveyor could cause extensive damage to the machine or cause serious injury or death.
! DANGER
Avoid power lines. Electrocution is possible if the recycler touches a power line. Take the following precautions.
Position the recycler and any loading equipment at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from all power lines. If the
machine contacts a power line, stay away from the machine. Failure to do this could result in serious injury or death.
NOTICE
If the machine is equipped with a height adjustable discharge, make sure it is in the correct position before
folding the discharge.
8. Conveyor Up / Down (If Equipped):
To adjust the height of the discharge conveyor push or pull the control handle until the desired height is
reached.
If the machine is equipped with the optional height adjustable discharge, the discharge must be placed in
a certain position before folding. Trailerized machines or track machines equipped with a CAT C-27 engine
must have the height adjustable discharge placed in the upper most position before folding the discharge.
Track machines (unless equipped with a CAT C-27 engine) must have the height adjustable discharge placed
in lower most position (resting on the stops) before folding the discharge.
9. Auger Forward / Off / Reverse:
To operate the augers in the normal forward condition push the control handle away from you. To stop
the augers; place the control handle in the neutral position.
! WARNING
NEVER operate the augers in reverse for more than one second at a time. Leaving the augers
in reverse will cause material to build up against the rear auger pan, damaging the auger drive.
NOTICE
Augers and discharge have to be engaged before feed system will go forward
when in remote mode.
10. Discharge Conveyor Forward / Off / Reverse:
To operate the discharge in the forward direction push the control handle away
from you. To stop the discharge; place the control handle in the neutral position.
11. Test Port:
To check hydraulic pressures, place the pressure gauge in the test port.
12. Emergency Shut Down Switches:
There are four emergency shut down switches located at each corner of the
machine. When any one of these are pushed in, the machine will stop. All switches
must be twisted clockwise and pulled out for the machine to work again.

CUTTERHEAD
The cutterhead is one of the most important components to keep a preventive maintenance schedule on. The
cutterhead is the heart of your recycler, it does most of the work. The cutterhead MUST be maintained daily.
Watch your cutter teeth patterns. Experiment with different styles of cutter teeth and patterns. Learn what works
best for you and your machine. We can not stress enough how important it is to maintain your cutter head.
! DANGER
NEVER RUN THE MACHINE WITH THE FOLLOWING FAILURES. THIS WILL CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE
TO YOUR MACHINE AND POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY TO O PERATORS.
NOTICE
Adjust the infeed conveyor chain tension daily.
Incorrect adjustments will cause expensive Check for cracks
cutterhead and infeed conveyor chain damage, see
page 85. The infeed head shaft location must be 3/4”
(19.1 mm) from the tip of a new tooth. Measure from
the end sprockets of the chain head shaft as shown
(See Figure 7 on page 60).

CUTTERBODY
The cutterbody used in the Beast has a leading edge referred to as the “raker”. The raker is designed to
control the depth of cut that the cutter tooth will take. The more the raker wears, the larger the cut that the
cutter tooth is allowed to take. If using a small hole screen taking large cuts means that the material has to
beat around inside the cutterhead chamber until small enough to exit through the screen. This robs horsepower
that could be used at the cutter tooth. Also, taking bigger cuts puts undue stress on the cutterhead shaft
leading to possible shaft failure. Over bite will cause cutterbodies to stretch and fail prematurely. This stress
will transfer into the cutterbody bolts and cause them to break or bend.
When new, the cutterbody has a hard surface weld applied to the raker area. It is imperative that this area
be maintained. The diagrams below show the height of the raker area when new and the maximum allowable
wear. While in the machine these measurements are taken from the face of the cutterhead drum. When worn,
remove the cutterbody from the cutterhead and build up the raker area with a hard surface weld using the
dimensions below as a guide. You could also lay a worn cutterbody on a new one to see how far to build up
the worn area. If using a wire feed welder, it is suggested to use a Lincoln Lincore 60-G or a Stoody 101HC
wire. If using a stick welder, it is suggested to use a Lincoln Wearshield 60 or the Stoody Stoodite 2134. If
there is excessive wear, it is recommended that the cutterbody be replaced with a new one. Be careful not to
build up the worn area above the height as when it was new because this will affect how the machine feeds.
Never weld on the cutterbodies while in the machine, as there is the potential for fire. It pays to have
several extra cutterbodies as replacements and weld up worn ones at your leisure.

CUTTERBODY BOLTS
The cutterhead of the Beast uses a replaceable cutterbody that is designed to fail should something foreign
get into the machine. They take an enormous amount of abuse with the bolts that hold the cutterbody in
place being one of the critical components. During the initial design and testing of this machine a bolt was
developed that is made special for Smoracy, LLC just for this application. The tolerances and the length of
the shank make it unique to any other bolt on the market. Maintaining the proper torque on this bolt is also
extremely critical - 700 ft.-lbs. (949 Nm) for 1” bolts or 1000 ft.-lbs. (1356 Nm) for 1-1/4” bolts. Using the wrong
bolts or not keeping them tight allows for movement between the cutterbody and the support arms which in
turn leads to fatigue and failure. Once the cutterbody is allowed to run loose the integrity of the hole in the
support arm is lost and must be replaced. Otherwise the bolt will never be able to stay tight again. Torque
every bolt with a torque wrench, do not rely on the air impact wrench to torque the bolts. If you over torque
these bolts, it can cause premature failure. Also the bolts alone are not strong enough to hold the cutterbody
in place. Clamping of the two (2) support arms helps the bolts hold the cutterbody in place and that is why it
is important that the bolts get torqued with a torque wrench and stay tight.
A few customers have had cutterbodies break loose from the cutterhead. In every case, it was because
they were not using the proper bolt. A lot of lost time and money will occur if there is a failure due to using
inferior parts or not torquing the bolts down to proper torque specifications with a torque wrench. Any warranty
claims will be denied if the cutterhead was run with anything other than parts supplied by Smoracy, LLC.
When ordering new cutterbodies, new bolts must be ordered as well. It is recommended to order extra to
have on hand for future use.
! WARNING
It is very important after you have operated a new machine for approximately an hour to shut down the
machine and recheck all nuts and bolts. It is normal for nuts and 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 nuts and bolts
must be checked periodically such as cutterbody and cutter teeth nuts and bolts, etc. for torque and fit.
Most of the nuts used on the Smoracy Recycler are self locking. After a nut or bolt has been removed five
times, it should be replaced to ensure proper tightness. The cutterbody and cutter tooth nuts and bolts must
be replaced every time.
Before the engine is started, rotate the cutterhead backwards a full revolution with a pry bar or a wood bar
to make sure the cutterhead has proper clearance. After the engine is started, let the cutterhead turn at the
lowest RPM’s possible. Listen for any type of noise that is foreign. Any steel on steel noise is foreign. If you
hear a noise, stop the engine, find the problem and fix it.

inside the grinding chamber.
• Check the screen holder bolts and Nord-Lock washer are at torques to 375 ft.-lbs.(508 Nm).
GATE REPLACEMENT
! WARNING Replacing the gate is a two man operation due to the fact
of it’s weight and size.
1. The discharge must be in it is normal operating position and the gate needs to be slightly open to take
pressure off the stops. This will make it easier to remove the hinge pins and cylinders.
2. Before attempting any type of maintenance, disengage clutch, wait for the cutterhead to come to a
complete stop, turn off engine, remove the ignition key, make sure the ignition key is in your possession,
wait 2 minutes and then disconnect the battery.

4. At the mill door located on the left side of the machine(curb side), pull the engine disable plug, release
the latches and swing the door open.
5. Retrieve the electric winch control tether from the tool box and plug it into the receptacle under the
engine. The winch will work with the battery disconnect off. The winch has it’s own disconnect switch.
6. Lower the winch and connect it to the gate and bring it up snug.
7. Remove the pins connecting the cylinders to the gate.
8. On the left side of the machine, pull the spring loaded latch and remove the gate pin out using the slide
hammer provided with the machine.
9. Open the access door on the belt shield then release the spring loaded latch to pull the pin.
10. Once the hinge pins are out, the gate can be pulled out and brought out through the mill door opening.
11. Retrieve the electric screen changing arm control tether and plug it in to the receptacle located outside
the compressor cover.
12. Turn the screen hoist / air compressor disconnect switch to the on position. It is located by the screen
changing arm.
13. Hook on to the gate with a chain and hook the chain onto the hook provided at the end of the screen
changing arm.
14. Lift the gate and swing the screen changing arm away from the machine and lower to the ground.
15. Install the new gate using the screen changing arm and a chain to position it through the mill door then
use the winch to move it into place.
16. After the new gate is in place, start the hinge pin from the left side and drive it through until it stops. Be
sure to align key stock with gate bushing slot.
17. Start the hinge pin from the right side and drive it through until it stops. Be sure to align key stock with
gate bushing slot.
18. Release the spring loaded latch.
19. Reconnect the hydraulic cylinders to the gate.
20. Check the clearance between the gate and the new tooth. If adjustment is needed, loosen bolts on lower
cylinder lug mounts, adjust and retighten.
21. Very carefully, manually with a pry bar or wood bar, turn the cutterhead a full revolution backwards. This
is to ensure the cutter teeth have proper clearance.
22. Reinstall the indicators on both side of the machine.
23. Close and secure the mill door and finally reinsert engine disable plug or the engine will not start.
24. Start the engine and operate the manual control valve to open and close the gate, checking for proper
operation.
NOTICE
The gate must be closed while grinding, unless foreign objects need to be let out. The machine can be run
with the gate 1/3 open, but not completely open for long periods of time. Running the machine with the gate
1/3 open will direct the material to the ceiling of the cutterhead chamber, which will not allow the material to
fall directly on the discharge and shorten the life of the discharge. The metal can be removed upon discharge
from the discharge belt conveyor. The material can then be reprocessed with the gate closed.
1. Loosen the bolts that hold the head shaft bearing to the adjuster assembly on each side of the head shaft.
2. Loosen the jam nut on the bearing adjuster and adjust the infeed chain so that there is 3/4” (19 mm)
clearance between the infeed head shaft sprocket and a new tooth on each side of the cutterhead.
3. Tighten the head shaft bearing bolts and jam nuts on the bearing adjusters and torque to 160 ft.-lbs.
(217 Nm). Do not over tighten these bolts, they must be torqued properly.
4. Adjust the infeed chain tension and infeed chain tracking with the adjusters on the tail shaft shown in
Figure 2 (one on each side).
5. Loosen the tail shaft bearing mounting bolts.
6. Loosen the jam nut on the adjuster and adjust the infeed chain to the correct tension. See Figure 3 and
Figure 4 for examples of a correctly tensioned infeed chain and one that is too loose.
7. Tighten the tail shaft bearing bolts and jam nuts on the adjusters. Torque to 160 ft.-lbs. (217 Nm).
8. The tail shaft adjusters are also used to adjust the infeed chain tracking.
NOTE: When you check tracking make sure the distance between the tail shaft and the head shaft are
the same on both sides of the infeed.
NOTICE Running the infeed chain too tight can damage your machine. The infeed chain will
be running erratic and making noises (creeking and popping) when running.
NOTICE Running the infeed chain loose can bind and damage your machine.

PAINT CARE
To help keep up the appearance of your Bandit equipment and reduce the possibility of surface rust follow
these steps:
1. The machine should be washed on a regular basis with a non-abrasive mild detergent and then rinsed
thoroughly. Do not pressure wash sensitive areas like: decals, gauges, electronic devices, autofeed
control, etc.
2. If a stone chip, paint scratch, or paint crack occurs - it should be repaired immediately. Simply sand the
edges of the damaged paint area, mask off the surrounding area, and apply primer and paint to the dry,
clean, and warm area. This will keep the damaged area from spreading or getting worse.
3. If you are unable to sand and mask the area, there are containers of primer and paint available. A small
brush can be used to touch up the area.
4. Also, primer and most colors of paint are available in aerosol spray cans to simply spray over the effected
area after it is cleaned, dry, and warmed. This method is not as reliable as the process in step #2.
It is also reported that some equipment owners polish their machine at least yearly, and keep good mud flaps
on their towing trucks.

working pressure. Put the infeed conveyor manual control valve into forward
or reverse position to check the infeed conveyor working hydraulic pressure.
Low hydraulic system pressure.
A 2600 PSI (179 bar) reading would indicate that the infeed conveyor is
mechanically stalled by some obstruction (e.g. failed bearing, damaged
gearbox, or damaged drive or idler shaft). A very low pressure reading would
indicate a hydraulic problem with the pressure relief valve or the hydraulic
pump. See relief valve setting in the hydraulic section.

HYDRAULICS
! WARNING
It is very important after you have operated a new machine for approximately an hour to shut down the machine
and recheck all hydraulic fittings. Relieve all pressure and retighten as needed.
DO NOT GO NEAR HYDRAULIC LEAKS! High pressure oil easily punctures skin causing serious injury, gangrene,
or death. Avoid burns from fluid. Hot fluid under pressure can cause severe burns. DO NOT use fingers or skin to
check for leaks. Lower load or relieve hydraulic pressure before loosening fittings. Relieve all pressure in the system
before disconnecting the lines, hoses, or performing other work. Use a piece of cardboard to find leaks. Never use
your bare hands. Allow system to cool down to ambient temperature before opening any coolant or hydraulic oil
system.
In cold weather situations let your hydraulic system idle for approximately 15 minutes to allow the system to warm
up to operating temperature.
! WARNING
DO NOT operate this machine unless all hydraulic control devices operate properly. They must function,
shift and position smoothly and accurately at all times. Faulty controls can cause personal injury!

NOTICE
The above chart is a suggested guide for viscosity of hydraulic fluids at start up ambient temperature.
The load, demand, and cleanliness of the equipment will affect actual oil temperatures which can
increase dramatically above ambient air temperatures during operation. The actual viscosity needed is
based on oil temperature during operation and not air temperature. Compare your fluid specifications with
the specifications below to verify compliance.
When choosing a hydraulic fluid - these maximum and minimum specifications must be met:
Minimum Viscosity during operation = 12 cSt
Maximum No-Load Viscosity at start-up = 2000 cSt
Hydraulic fluids vary in their resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures, their ability to protect
against metal-to-metal contact under increasing temperature, and their ability to separate water from
the fluid. Viscosity is temperature dependent. Fluids with high viscosity-index (VI) will thin out slower
at higher temperature and thicken slower at colder temperatures allowing a wider operating range.
Choose a fluid that has test results in these areas for best results.
Based on the varying temperatures of the area where Bandit equipment is used, and the high demand
and loads placed on this equipment, Bandit has filled each hydraulic system with Petro-Canada’s Hydrex
XV All Season Hydraulic Fluid for maximum protection and performance.
NOTICE
Some component manufacturers require different specific lubrication requirements, such as gear boxes,
undercarriage drives, fluid engagement clutches, etc. Refer to the manufacturer’s manual for information.
