22. Make final adjustments to the back shields and mounting brackets and tighten all hardware. Adjust
the carrier wheel assemblies if provided. The carrier wheel assembly should NOT be adjusted to
support the full weight of the flight and shield sections. The carrier wheel assembly should be
adjusted so that it ONLY keeps the flight and back shield from contacting the floor.
NOTE: Failure to properly adjust the carrier wheel assembly as described above can result in
damage to the bin floor and the bin sweep.
23. Inspect the “DANGER” decals on the back shields to ensure legibility. If the decal cannot easily be
read or is missing, order a new decal immediately from the dealer.
24. Fill the 3:1 aluminum enclosed drive with oil. This is accomplished by removing the vented fill plug
and pouring 48 ounces of oil into the drive. The oil level can be checked by removing the check plug
on the opposite side of the drive. The oil level should not be over the check plug.
CAUTION
Oil must be added prior to running the bin sweep. The 3:1 aluminum enclosed
drive is shipped WITHOUT oil.
Do NOT add more oil than is recommended. Additional oil may damage the seals
or be forced out through the vented fill plug.
For lubrication in normal operating temperature between 40°F and 120°F, we
recommend the use of non-foaming, multi-purpose gear oil, SAE 90 weight. For
temperatures below 40°F, use SAE 80 weight oil. Use grade commercially
available for automotive differentials. Extra pressure additives may be of value in
severe applications.
