Installing the Hopper Frame
Note:
On Quest SP Units: It may be easier to install
the hopper onto the hopper frame before performing
the following steps.
1. Remove the hairpin from the hopper frame. Insert
the hopper frame into the LH hopper mount bracket
(see Figure 4). Rest the other end of the hopper
frame between the tabs on the RH hopper mount
bracket. Reinstall the hairpin to secure the hopper
frame.
Note:
If the hopper frame does not seat properly in
the mount brackets, carefully use the hopper frame
to slightly adjust the alignment of the brackets.
