CLUSTER BUSTER INSTALLATION
Determine location for hole in side of bin. Position sweep auger just behind outermost intermediate sump
(to left of sump when looking toward bin wall). Note location of backboard torsion bar and drill 1” dia. hole
in bin wall that will line up with torsion bar. See Image 3.
Insert end of 1” OD bent conduit (E7968 or E79681) into torsion bar and attach other end to backboard
using U-bolt (1/4” for 6” unit, 3/8” for 8” or 10”). See Fig. 29. On 8” or 10” Sweepway, end of conduit
should be about 3-1/2” as shown.
Fig. 29
Insert 1/4" cable (not provided) through hole in bin and push through torsion bar
and conduit so cable extends about 15” from conduit.
See Table 11 on next page for recommended cable length. Leave enough cable
outside of bin to attach drill.
Mark cable at bin wall to serve as a guide for when other end is over sump.
Use torch to weld end strands of cable together to prevent fraying. See Image 4.
Welding cable will help ease its transition from torsion bar to conduit.
