Bingham Dry Plucker

[Lazurus]

We have just got a Bingham Dry Plucker to use on the shoot, it will need a good service and maybe plates to. Has anyone serviced one of these or have a manual, I cannot access the Bingham site due to works firewall to see if they have one to download?

New plates make a massive difference as does a really good scrape/clean out and tension up. A little bit of grease goes a long way too. Can’t remember if the new plate kit (about £100 if I remember correctly) comes with the plate sequence on so take note of the plate numbers when you take the old ones out. 
I used a seed/feed type dumpy bag to catch the feathers works better than extracting into drum type set up.
