5.2 Assembling the frame and struts
Connecting the frame feet to the plug-in elements of the top and base connectors:
CAUTION: Take care to bolt the drawing irons together in such a way that the
bolts point outwards to avoid them rubbing against the fabric.
CAUTION! RISK OF INJURY!
Wear safety gloves during assembly of the steel frame as protection
against sharp edged metal components.
Pay attention to the room layout with regard to entry door and filling set.
Check the room height.
If filling is executed inside the room, please note that the minimum distance from
the wall to the frame has to be 80 - 100 cm, on the side where the silo will be filled.
Plug the plug-in elements into the frame stands and then connect the drawing irons
to the outer side. To connect the drawing irons with the stands and the plug-in
elements use screws M12x30.
With rectangular silos the drawing irons have a different length. The longer parts
must both be assembled on the two longer silo sides.
Split Design
8 drawing irons with the same length for the face side
16 drawing irons with the same length for the long side
Protect yourself from frame feet which can tumble down and protect them while
assembling.
