Before continuing, ensure you have completely read and understood this manual’s
Safety section, in addition to the safety information in the section(s) below.
4.1. Assembly Safety
• Do not take chances with safety. The components can be large, heavy, and hard to handle.
Always use the proper tools, rated lifting equipment, and lifting points for the job.
• Carry out assembly in a large open area with a level surface.
• Always have two or more people assembling the X-Tend hopper.
• Make sure you have sufficient lighting for the work area.
• Tighten all fasteners according to their specifications. Do not replace or substitute bolts,
nuts, or other hardware that is of lesser quality than the hardware supplied by the
manufacturer.
4.2. General Assembly
The X-Tend hopper is available installed as part of the normal assembly of an X130 auger or as a kit to replace
an already-installed low-profile hopper.
Refer to the appropriate assembly manual for general assembly information, including auger assembly
sequence and the standard list of tools required (installation of the X-Tend hopper replaces the installation of
the Low Profile hopper, swing tube and spout head in the auger assembly sequence).
General Installation
1. Secure an appropriate lifting device with lifting straps or chains to the X-Tend hopper.
2. Check that the u-joint spline and splined shaft on the lower gearbox are clean, then apply a light film of
grease on this splined shaft.
3. Remove the collector service door/cover on side of collector.
4. Lower the X-Tend hopper collector onto the boot while guiding the u-joint onto the gearbox shaft. Reach
through the collector service door to rotate u-joint (as necessary), to line up with the splined gearbox shaft.
Once positioned, the swivel ring should be resting flat on the boot surface.
5. Secure the ring in place using four retainer tabs, four retaining spacers and eight 3/8" x 3/4" bolts.
6. Lubricate the u-joint.
7. Close and secure the collector service door/cover.
