Install the Agitator
1.
Due to variability in drum heights the lowest set of
blades may contact the bottom of the drum. If the
bung adapter will not fully seat, or if resistance is felt
when installing the agitator, move the blades up the
shaft. To move the blades, loosen the setscrew on
the hub and slide the assembly up or down to the
desired position. The setscrew must always remain
on the top, with the blades hanging down, so the
blades will pass into and out of the bung hole.
2.
To install the agitator on the container cover, drop
the folding blade sections through the drum bung
hole, then screw the bung adapter into the bung
hole. See Dimensions, page 9.
3.
Position the air motor so the air line can be attached
easily to the needle valve’s 1/8 npt inlet, without
obstructing any other system components.
4.
Attach an air line quick disconnect valve or ball
valve for main air shutoff. Order Part 208536,
Coupler, and Part 169969, fitting.
5.
Attach the air line between the needle valve’s
1/8 npt inlet and the 1/8 npt air supply manifold
outlet.
Angled Adaptor
If the agitator is used on a drum with an off-center bung
and the blades would contact the side of the drum, the
angled adaptor must be used to avoid this contact.
1.
Thread the locking ring onto the angled adaptor by
hand, as far as it will go.
2.
Thread the angled adaptor into the bung until it bot-
toms out, then back it out until the widest portion on
of the adaptor top is pointing just to the left of the
center of the drum (Fig. 4).
3.
Turn down the locking ring until it contacts the drum.
Use an appropriately sized pipe wrench or adjust-
able wrench to tighten the adaptor down until the
widest portion of the adaptor top is in line with the
drum.
Always maintain a minimum of 1 in. (25.4 mm) clear-
ance between rotating agitator parts and container to
prevent sparks from contact.

NOTICE
Keep the agitator tightly mounted to the drum bung
to prevent damage to the threads from vibration.
When using a modified drum, check that there is no
interference between the base of the drum and the
shaft of the agitator to prevent blade or shaft dam-
age and to avoid sparks from contact (see Warning
under Install the Agitator).
To avoid personal injury, never operate the agitator
outside of a drum.
