Clean Out Cover Installation
The clean out cover (B) should be located the section of trough nearest to the return side of the hopper.
Using a 2" hole saw, cut a hole centered in the bottom of the trough as shown in
. It is important
to cut the hole as centered as possible in order to prevent a corner of the chain to catch on the hole which
could possibly result in costly repairs. Place the clean out cover (B) under the clean out hole (A) and
tighten the thumb screws to secure it in place.
Figure 6J
Installing the Chain
When all trough ends are fully inserted and tightly fit into the couplers, corners and hopper, you are ready
to install the chain. Start by removing the belt guard from the feeder and remove the shear pin from the
power sprocket. This will enable you to turn the sprocket freely during chain installation.
