Typical Installation
Grounding
All electrically
conductive objects or devices
must
be
properly
grounded. Check your local electrical code for
detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of
equipment.
To ground the agitator,
connect one end of the
ground
wire (A) to the ground connector (B) on agitator
mounting bracket (see F
. 2). Connect the other end of
the ground wire to a true earth ground.
For a ground wire and clamp, order part 237569.
To reduce the risk of fire and explosion, always
maintain a minimum of 1 in. clearance inside the
material drum between rotating agitator parts and any
other objects, including the drum to prevent sparks
from contact. This includes the edges of the drum as
well as any item which may be inserted into the drum
from another opening, such as feed pumps or suction
tubes.

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to
ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire
for the electric current.
