The discharge cone consists of four cone quarter panels. Begin construction by placing two cone quarter
panels such that the edges overlap and the four holes on the overlapping edges are aligned, with the
larger cone diameter down. Using top and middle overlapping holes in the panels (as shown in Figure 7),
fasten the cone panels together using two 1/4” X 3/4” bolts pushed
from the inside out
, and two 1/4”
whiz-lock nuts. Tighten the fasteners in the top holes securely, but only finger-tighten the hardware in the
middle set of holes at this time. Repeat this process for the third and fourth panels until the cone is
completed. To prevent rain water leakage, the top panel should overlap both side panels, and the side
panels should overlap the bottom panel.
CONE ASSEMBLY
Next, invert the cone so that the larger
diameter is up. Using four 1/4” flat
washers, insert four 1/4” X 2-3/4”
Guard Stud Bolts into the overlapping
holes on the edge of the cone panels
from the outside in
. Place a Guard
Spacer over each Guard Stud Bolt.
Next, place a 1/4” whiz-lock nut on
each Guard Stud Bolt and tighten
securely, creating the guard studs as
shown in Figures 8 & 9.
Now, tighten ALL of the 1/4” cone
hardware securely. The guard is now
ready to be mounted. Take the guard,
and with the eyelets at the ends of the
guard ribs pointing out of the cone,
slide the guard inside the cone. The
eyelets at the end of the guard ribs
should be placed over the guard studs.
With the guard in place, a 1/4” whiz-
lock nut should be placed on the guard
studs and tightened to secure the
guard.
