Installing the Sidedraw Baffle Chute (Two Post Stiffener)
The sidedraw baffle chute helps direct the bin contents to the discharge chute.
1. Determine the sidedraw system location, and ensure the installation of baffle chutes (C) will not inter-
fere with stiffeners (A).
2. Starting at the top of the bin, locate the second ring (B), and measure 56-3/4 in. (D) from the edge of
sidewall sheet (E), for the proper centering placement of the baffle chute.
3. Locate the horizontal seam connecting the first and second ring, and measure approximately 2-21/32
in. (J) from the center hole in the horizontal seam to the first center hole on the baffle chute. Mark or
scribe the hole location.
4. Align the first baffle chute hole with the mark, and ensure the baffle chute is level. Place another mark
or scribe at the opposite hole on the baffle chute (C).
5. Field drill a 7/16 in. hole and install flange bolts (H) and flange nuts (I).
6. Repeat the field drilling process for the remaining six holes.
7. Repeat this procedure for the remaining baffle chutes.
NOTE: A typical installation has equal spacing (K).
