Hopper Cradle – Non Weigher
The standard hopper cradle pivots on a simple pin, which passes through the
replaceable inserts in the mainframe, through the hopper cradle, being retained at
one end by a single M8 setscrew.
To remove, fully lower the hopper, stop the engine/motor and release any residual
hydraulic pressure. Remove the hopper and upper ram pivot pin as described
previously. Remove the single retaining setscrew, attach suitable lifting equipment to
the cradle take the weight and using a suitable drift and soft faced hammer knock out
the pivot pin and lift the cradle clear.
To remove the inserts use a suitable hexagon wrench and remove the cap screws
retaining the inserts into each side of the mainframe use a suitable drift and knock
out both inserts, note the indent which aligns with the threaded hole in each side of
the mainframe.
Reverse the procedure to refit, coating the insets and pivot pins with anti-seize
compound on assembly, align the threaded holes and indents in the inserts.
Insert the two capscrews with spring washers to lock the inserts in place.
Batchweigher Pivot
The batchweigher pivot is fitted with replaceable bushes and is retained to the
mainframe between the hopper cradle via a simple pivot pin.
To remove, raise the hopper and engage the hopper support. Remove the grubscrew
holding the pivot pin in place and using a suitable drift knock out the pin.
Fit new bushes using a suitable bearing tube and if necessary reamer to size. Coat
the pivot pin with anti-seize compound and lubricate the bushes with grease refit the
pivot pin and secure with the grubscrew. Check the pivot is free both on the pin and
between the bosses.
Remove the hopper support and lower the hopper.
Note in order to retain the batchweigher calibration, do not disturb the loadcell striker
capscrew unless the pivot is to be replaced.
Hopper Cradle – Batchweigher
The batchweigher hopper cradle is slightly more complicated than the standard
cradle as there are two pivot shafts each being supported on inserts/bearing carriers
in both the mainframe and hopper cradle fitted with needle roller bearings. The shafts
are threaded at each end and are retained in the mainframe and cradle via large
locking nuts.
