ASSEMBLY OF HOPPER BAG
1. Turn the upper hopper tube so that the middle
brace holes face down as shown in figure 8. Slide
the tube through the two loops sewn to the top rear

IMPORTANT:
The two holes in the middle of the
upper hopper tube must face down to allow assem-
bly of the support rods.
2. Insert the two side hopper tubes through the
stitched flaps on each side of the hopper bag. See
figure 9.
3. Assemble the ends of the upper hopper tube onto
the ends of the side hopper tubes. Fasten together
