Drum Assembly
STEP 1:
Initial Drum Body Assembly
Select:
g
2 Drum Panel A segments (item 1)
g
5 #10 Bolts (silver) (item 10)
g
5 #10 Flatwashers (item 11)
g
5 #10 Lockwashers (item 12)
g
5 #10 Nuts (item 13)
A.
Place both Drum Panel A segments on a flat, smooth
work surface with the flanged mixing fins facing upright.
Align them by matching up the holes in the fins.
B.
Fasten the panels together at each of the five holes
as follows:
Insert 1 #10 Bolt (silver) through both panels.
Secure with 1 #10 Flatwasher, followed by 1 #10 Lockwasher, and finally 1#10 Nut.
Hand tighten all bolts.
C.
Using the slotted screwdriver and 3/8" wrench, tighten all the fasteners.
STEP 2:
Drum Assembly
Select:
g
1 Endcap (item 3)
g
1 Drum Body Assembly (from step 1)
A.
Place the Endcap with the ComposTumbler lettering
facing down on the work surface. Note the position of
the screen in the Endcap. Carefully pick up the partially
assembled drum and fit it into the Endcap. The mixing
fins should be inside, with the center fin in the alignment
slot near the screen.
B.
Insert the edges of the Drum Panels into the rim of
the Endcap. (Note: The mixing fins on the ends of the
segments will not fit in the alignment slots because the
drum panels extend beyond the alignment slots in this
section of the drum.) Be sure the Drum Assembly is
completely fitted into the Endcap rim all around.
