DISCHARGE HOSE & BRACKET
Find your desired discharge location. It should either be in front of the feed rolls, or behind
the feed rolls, but in front of the knives. Coverage tests that Dohrmann Enterprises, Inc. has
been involved in, or contributed equipment to, placed the discharge in one of these locations
with successful results. See examples of discharge locations in the pictures on the following
page. These will show mounting on the following choppers:
•
Pull-Type
•
Claas
•
John Deere
•
Krone
•
New Holland
1.
Determine where your discharge location will be. If you are inserting the hose through
a shield, check under it for any additional shields, shafts, or brackets that may interfere
with the product being applied directly to the feed.
2.
Drill a 3/8” hole. If needed, remove any burrs from drilling.
3.
Next remove the bolt and nut from the discharge
bracket.
4.
Place the elbow through the hole you just drilled.
5.
Now, mark the spot where the nut and bolt will be used
to secure the bracket. If you need to, remove the hose
before marking and drilling.
6.
Drill
the 3/8” hole, and if needed, remove any
burrs.
7.
Line up the discharge bracket with the second
hole drilled.
8.
Place the bolt through the top, and secure with
the nut from below.
9.
If the hose was removed during drilling, put it
back in place, and
route the ¼” ID X 3/8” OD hose from the FM-1008.5-LED to your
established discharge point.
