Frequently asked questions

To adjust the gate, tighten the bolt (A) just enough to provide friction to hold the gate in place. Move the gate handle down to increase the opening and up to decrease it. Once desired volume is achieved, tighten the wing nut (B).

Loosen the 3/4" locking nuts at either side of the left and right conveyor idler shaft adjustment brackets. Turn each threaded rod to loosen or tighten each side of the conveyor chain. The chain is correctly adjusted when there is 1/16" clearance between each side of the chain and the first conveyor support angle closest to the idler shaft. Tighten the locking nuts again.

The internal baffles can be adjusted by pulling the looped handles out of the adjustment holes and rotating them up to put the baffle into the flow of material. The external baffles are adjusted by loosening the locknuts on the hinges and adjusting them to the desired pattern, then retightening the locknuts.
