2 Ring Door Installation Instructions (See Figure 6N on Page 56.)
1. Remove inner door panels and outer door cover. Apply double row of rope caulk along door flanges,
noting how door and bin sheets lap. The top of the door frame goes to the inside of the sidewall and
the bottom of the door frame goes to the outside of the sidewall sheet. With inner door panels and
outer door cover removed, set door frame into opening. Insert a bolt at the four (4) corners of door
frame and sidewall, but do not tighten until completing
Step 2 .
2. Re-install inner door panels at original locations. Close latch bars to lock panels in place. Be sure that
panels are fully seated over all bearing pins. Install inner panel hinge assemblies per illustration
instructions with hinges.
NOTE: Do not distort door frame with use of alignment or drift punches - if necessary, drill or ream
holes to insert bolts in door frame. Now tighten frame bolts starting at center and working
toward top and bottom on each side.
3. Keep inner panels latched and loosen all bearing pin bolts. Re-tighten all bearing pin bolts. This
makes loading on pins uniform for easier operation of panels.
4. If some latch bars are loose or require excessive force to lock, loosen hex socket cap screws and
adjust in or out until latch bars operate smoothly. Check that the panels are fully seated over all
bearing pins.
5. Re-install outer door cover. Adjust outer door hinges and latches as required.
6. Assemble door hold back as shown on next page. (See Figure 6N on Page 56.) Open door cover
until it approaches the bin wall. Hook retaining bracket over lower latch mount and position the door
hold back bracket against bin wall in a valley. Drill a 3/8" hole through the bin wall and bolt the door
hold back bracket to the bin. If needed, install the door hold back extension to door hold back bracket.
