7. Attach the 4 solid wheels to the 4 hopper corners with the axle pins and

hairpins. There are 3 height settings (Figure 3.35) that can be used
according to preference.

8. To connect the intake hopper to the auger boot, the swing head spout door

must first be opened. To do so, open the spring clasps and rotate the spout
door open, so that it lies down on the top of the swing tube.

9. Check that the u-joint spline and splined shaft on the lower gear box are

clean, then apply a light film of grease on this splined shaft.

10. Shift the position of the hopper so that the spout head is supported above the

hopper, centred on the shaft of the gear box.

11. Lower the spout head onto the boot while guiding the splined universal joint

onto the splined gearbox shaft. Once positioned, the swivel ring should be
resting flat on the boot surface.

12. Install spout head spacers, followed by spout-head retainers, using ten

5/16" x 3/4" GR2 bolts (Figure 3.36).

13. Lubricate the universal joint and then close the safety discharge door.

Important:

Always keep the discharge door closed during operation.
