PLATFORM INSTALLATION
Airstream service platform units are
designed for use with Airstream two
and three module grain dryers. The
two module models require a service
platform on the upper module, and
the three module units use a platform
on both the upper and center mod-
ules.
For ease of assembly, the plat-
form should be fully installed before
the module is lifted and installed.

channels and related parts within the
platform package number one as fol-
lows:

attachment bracket, D61-0054,
onto each side of the dryer as
shown. Using the existing large
bolts through the round set of
bracket holes.
Loosely connect the two
rear anchor channels, D61-0055,

ing 3/8" x 1" bolts with washers.

the front end of the dryer hitch
weldment. Use four 1/2" x
