Agitator Paddle Installation
See Figure 9:
1.Place an agitator paddle (1) over the hex shaft directly above a feeder cup. Position paddle as shown (paddle 1).
2.Slip a 1/4 x 2 inch hex flange bolt (2) through the paddle and secure with a hex flange lock nut (3).
NOTE: Before tightening a paddle or group of paddles, carefully rotate the drive system to make sure paddles do not hit the tray dividers.
3.Place a paddle over the next feeder cup. Ro- tate this paddle 1/6th of a turn and slide it onto the next set of flats as shown (paddle 2).
4.Continue the installation above each feeder cup, rotating the paddle 1/6th of a turn each time as shown ( paddles 3 through 6).
5.Start over with paddle 1 and continue until each feeder cup has a paddle. The fully as- sembled shaft will have a spiral result.
6.After checking for interference, torque the paddle bolts to 9 ft. lbs. (108 in lbs.)
