Figure 40
Slide the discharge tube weldment (Item 1) against the
top truss tube weldment (Item 2)
[Figure 40] . Align the
holes in the two flanges and install twelve 1/2” x 1-1/2”
bolts and lock nuts.
NOTE: Do not fully tighten bolts the first time. Fully
tightening the bolts on one side will pull the
auger tubes out of alignment.
Starting at the top, work around flange ring tightening
each bolt a minimum of two times to gradually pull the
two tube flanges together. Tighten the bolts until the two
flanges have made full contact.
Figure 41
Install straps (Item 1) around the top truss tube weldment
(Item 2)
[Figure 41] .
Connect the strap to an approved lifting device.
Raise the top truss tube weldment until the bottom of the
discharge tube weldment makes contact with the top
truss tube weldment cradles.
NOTE: Do not attempt to pull the center tube down
into the upper truss tube cradles.
Figure 42
Align and install one 2-bolt half clamp (Item 1) [Figure
42] over the discharge tube weldment (all locations).
Align the bolt holes and maintain equal space between
the two mounts.
Install two 3/8” x 1-1/2” bolts (Item 2) [Figure 42] down
through the 2-bolt half clamp and top truss tube cradle
(both sides). Install one 3/8” lock nut onto each bolt (both
sides). Repeat procedure for each 2-bolt half clamp on
the discharge tube weldment.
Slowly tighten the 3/8” x 1-1/2” bolts (Item 2) [Figure 42]
and 3/8” lock nuts evenly on each side of the 2-bolt half
clamp. Tighten remaining 2-bolt half clamp bolts and
nuts.
Figure 43
Install straps (Item 1) to the lower truss tube weldment
(Item 2)
[Figure 43] just forward of the last 2-bolt half
clamp on the lower truss tube weldment.
Connect the straps to an approved lifting device.
