BFT Bin Lid Assembly
Additional Tools and Materials Needed:
• Clamp
• Assorted Wrench Set
• Ratchet and Socket Set
• Ground Control Chain (If you do not already have one)
Instructions
1. Disassemble existing lid. Start by detaching the current cotter pins located in the ground control chain
on latch side of the bin lid. Retain the end of the chain for easy access when re-attaching the chain
to the new bin lid lever arm.
(See Figure 2 on Page 2.) Ensure there is a functional roof eave bracket
in place to use with the new lid.
Carefully loosen and remove the back bracing bolts of the old lid. Be sure to have firm grasp on the
nuts on the inside of the bin to prevent them from falling down into the bin. Be aware that the lid
is spring loaded and can close rapidly. Next with the lid closed, loosen existing bolt on the front
mounting bracket of the old lid. Dispose of the old lid.
NOTE: If there was no previous chain, roof eave bracket or chain holder bracket, a chain will need
to be purchased and the brackets included will need to be attached to the side of the bin,
vertically aligned with the lever arm.
(See Figure 1.)
