Procedure
29
Start the hydraulic pump on the surge bin.
30
Remove the two conveyor support pins from their location at the rear of the chassis. Remove the
two telescoping conveyor support structure pins.
31
Using the left side hydraulic control valve lever extend the conveyor lift cylinders by pulling the
lever.
32
The conveyor will slowly pivot around its support and raise into the operating position.
33
Re-insert the two conveyor support pins at the rear of the chassis.
34
Insert the pins into the upper telescoping conveyor support structure on each side.
35
Install the platform handrail.
36
Remove the four corner pins holding the bin legs to the support structure by using the hydraulics
to remove the weight from the pins.
37
Raise the bin by operating the center and right control valve levers simultaneously. Carefully
observe the cylinder extension to ensure that the bin is going up equally at all four corners.
38
When the bin has been raised to the operating height re-insert the four corner pins.
39
Lower the bin slightly so that the weight of the bin rests on the support pins and not on the
hydraulic cylinders.
40
Shut off the hydraulic pump on the surge bin.
41
Position the conveyor stairs and handrail on the conveyor.
42
Close the front and rear bin doors.
43
Fold down the ladders.
44
Remove the bolts holding the bypass chute in the transport position on the platform.
45
Use a crane to lift, position and lower the bypass chute over the slide chute.
46
Bolt the two chutes together.
47
Remove the transport bolt at the bottom of the slide chute. This permits the chute to pivot back
into the operating position.
