14. Gradually open the center well, inside intermediate wells and outside intermediate wells until the

desired flow has been established. DO NOT excessively open the gates, as the flow of grain into the
inside intermediate wells and occasional grain flow into the center well will be at a higher rate than

wells, close the center well and intermediate well gates. The remaining grain should look like
