ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
The Poultry House Wall Cleaner is shipped in two pieces; the pivot frame and the blade as-
sembly. Assembling the Wall Cleaner is accomplished by bolting the two together using a 1” x 5 1/2”
long pivot bolt (and locknut) and a 5/8” x 5 1/2”
grade 2 bolt for the blade pivot lock down bolt (with
lockwasher and nut). After aligning the 1” frame hole with the blade adjustment plate hole, insert the
1” pivot bolt and screw on the locknut. Tighten the locknut leaving just enough play to rotate the
blade. Install the 5/8” blade shear bolt and nut, and tighten
.
NOTE: ALWAYS USE A 5/8” DIAMETER, GRADE 2 BOLT FOR THE BLADE PIVOT LOCK
DOWN BOLT. THIS BOLT LOCKS THE BLADE IN PLACE ALSO ACTS AS A SHEAR
PIN, SHEARING IF AN IMMOVABLE OBJECT IS ENCOUNTERED
.
Secure the hydraulic hoses to the frame with cable ties. Make sure the hoses are routed and
secured in a manner that will keep them from getting into the auger.

ATTACHING TO TRACTOR
The KMC Poultry House Wall Cleaner is designed to be operated with tractors having Cate-
gory I or Category II three-point hitches. One set of tractor hydraulic remotes are also required to op-
erate the cleaner.
Once the tractor has been set, attach the Poultry House Wall Cleaner to the tractor’s lower lift
arms using the provided hitch pins. Attach the tractor top link to the cleaner using an appropriate hitch
pin. Install tractor stabilizing bars to minimize lateral movement of the Wall Cleaner. After installing a
set of hydraulic hose ends for your tractor onto the Wall Cleaner hoses, connect the hoses to one set
of the tractor’s remotes.
