MPORTANT: Make sure the catch of the hook is cen-

tered in a line directly under the latch and that the
bottom round surface

of the hook is contacting the

hopper surface in a radius slightly nearer the hopper
lid (rather than further) for the hook to latch properly.
The latch will not secure properly if the hook
bottom

is bolted on too far from the lid.
