Installing Wind Rings

Installation of wind rings is similar for a two and a three post bin design, although hardware quantities may
vary.

What You Should Know

Before installing, determine the bin size, sidewall gauge thickness, and height. Use the hardware chart to
match the correct bolt length with the correct sidewall gauge thickness when installing the wind ring brack-

or if additional wind rings will be needed for sidedraw systems, see
