Start at the bottom of the hopper and tighten all bolts, including anchor bolts, discharge collar, hopper
panels, splice plates and compression angle segments.
Install rack and pinion roller gate as shown in Figure 5I on Page 36 , using 5/16" x 3/4" hardware (S-275).
Install “X” bracing as shown in Figure 6H , Figure 6I and Figure 6J .
When the hopper structure has been completed, it should be level to within ± 1/8" maximum deviation, as
compared to all other support columns as measured at the top of the compression angle ring. The support
columns must be plumb to within ± 1/2" as measured from top to bottom.
