STEP 6: Initial Drum Body Assembly
Select:
• 1 Drum Segment A (item 12)
• 2 Drum Segments B (item 13)
• 10 #10 Bolts (silver) (item 22)
• 10 #10 Flat Washers (item 23)
• 10 #10 Lock Washers (item 24)
• 10 #10-32 Hex Nuts (item 25)
1) Place Drum Segment A on a flat, smooth work surface
with the flanged mixing fins facing upright. Align
one Drum Segment B along one side of Segment A,
matching up the holes in the fins.
2) Fasten Segment A to first Segment B using:
1 #10 Bolt (silver)
1 #10 Flat Washer
1 #10 Lock Washer
1 #10 Hex Nut at each of the five holes. Hand tighten
all bolts.
3) Attach the other Segment B to the other side of Segment
A the same way.
4) Using the flat head screwdriver and 3/8” (10 mm)
wrench, tighten all the fasteners.
The Support Frame for your ComposTumbler is now
assembled and ready to hold the drum. Move the frame
into its final position before placing the assembled drum on
it. Double check to make certain that all nuts and bolts are
tightly secured.
The Frame should be carefully positioned on level ground to
insure best results. Uneven placement can make the Tumbler
harder to turn.
Before operating, lubricate the 4 axle rod carrier sections.
