5. Install pump as follows:
CAUTION: Pump may be hot. Wear gloves
when handling pump.
a. Remove pump from storage position (A) on adapter
and slide pump onto R/H feeder house output shaft.
NOTE: The first time the pump is installed, hoses
may have to be loosened for proper alignment.
Tighten hoses after installation.
b. Engage pump torque arm on support arm on adapter
and secure with lynch pin at (B).
NOTE: If gear drive will not slide on shaft enough to
engage lynch pin (B), slide anchor to the right until pin
can be engaged.
IMPORTANT: Damage to the spline on the combine
may occur if anchor is adjusted too far to the right,
causing the gear drive spline to not fully engage on
the combine spline.
6. Float the feeder house front drum up and check for
interference with adapter feed drum. If so, remove a
link from the feeder chain and move the front drum
back. Re-tighten chain and check clearance again.
