Installing the unit
Each BF has 3 rubber-metal buffers so that the bowl feeder can be fastened to the sub-
structure
. See section 3.3, Table 1, for the mounting hole dimensions.
Ideally the devices must be mounted on a plate that can be height-adjusted and rotated
around a central column. Suitable substructure components are available from Afag.
