Attaching Chute Assembly
(Hardware Group A)
•
Place chute assembly over chute opening, with the
opening in the chute assembly facing the front of
the unit.
•
Place chute flange keepers beneath lip of chute
assembly, with the flat side of chute flange keeper
facing downward.
•
Insert hex cap screw up through chute flange
keeper and chute assembly and secure with hex
lock nut. After assembling all three chute flange
keepers, tighten all nuts and bolts securely with two
7/16” wrenches. Do not overtighten. See Figure 4A.
•
With the hex nuts loosened on the lower chute
crank bracket (See Figure 4B) adjust the bracket so
that the spiral on the chute crank fully engages the
teeth on the chute assembly. Tighten the nuts on
the lower chute crank bracket securely.
