Feeder

Begin assembly by sliding the pusher block with the adjuster rod from the front through the slot shown in Fig. 1. Be sure the pusher block is turned with the bolt hole to feed indicator side. Next, hold pusher block in the most rearward position and slide the adjuster tube over the adjuster rod until it bottoms out on the pusher block. Thread the adjuster, then the wing nut on the end of the adjuster rod.

Put gasket around the opening on the adapter plate. Slide the feeder through the plate and bolt together with two 5/16 x 3/4” bolts. Next, install the grate holder.

Grate

The grate is composed of four pieces: the grate holder,

Fig. 1(2) grate inserts, and firebrick angle. The firebrick angle is bolted to the grate holder with (2) 3/8” x 1 1/4” bolts. Before installing the grate holder, 3/8” round gasket must be checked in the groove on the bottom side of the grate holder, as shown in fig. 4. Check to be sure the gasket has not been damaged. Locate the flange at the rear of the grate holder into the slot on the feeder as shown at left. Bolt the front end down snug with the 1/4” x 20 allen bolt and

nut provided. The rear end will be locked in place by the flange.

Before completely tightening the bolt, be sure the grate holder is back as far as possible and cen- tered side to side on the feeder opening.
