Step 5:
Install handle shaft to lower handles and pivot & bracket assembly as shown
using 2” bolts and locknuts.
TIGHTEN BOLTS AND NUTS NOW.

(This step is only required if you want to change the position of the
handles).
NOTE:
BEFORE INSTALLING GAUGE AND UPPER HANDLES TO
HANDLE SHAFT, UPPER HANDLES FEATURE THREE POSITONS FOR OPERATOR’S
COMFORT. If operator chooses middle or upper positions, use handle spacer in
hole nearest to handle grips.
Insert 2” bolt through upper handle, then through handle spacer through other upper
handle
and secure with locknut.
DO NOT TIGHTEN LOCKNUT YET. TIGHTEN THIS
NUT LAST.
Now slide the
UPPER HANDLE
assembly over the
HANDLE SHAFT (on
the end with the bolt holes closer to the end)
. Install gauge & lever using
(2) 2” bolts. Be sure gauge is on left hand
side. Tighten locknuts to gauge first.
TIGHTEN ALL HARDWARE NOW.

Gauge as shown. Turn to lock in place.
{Make sure that there is a plain ¼ -20 Hex
Nut threaded about halfway up the

Push lever forward to full OPEN setting. Align and push the
Control Rod through the angle attached to the Pivot Bracket. Now
install ¼ -20 regular nut on to Control Rod
. {One nut on either side
of the angled plate}
.
Next pull pivot & bracket back so that the shut off plate in the
hopper is in the full open position and adjust the Hex Nuts on the
Pivot Bracket angle
to secure the angled bracket. Now tighten the
nuts against the pivot angled bracket to prevent change in
calibration.
