Attach the hopper assembly to the round
ends of the single frame tubes with four M6 x
40 bolts and washers found in hardware pack
3032810. Secure the rear bolts on each side

Figure 2-8
NOTE: The indented side of the tubes should
be facing in.
Material Deflector Assembly Installation
The material deflector must be used to focus the
dispersion of material away from the unit and
operator. To install the deflector assembly:
1.
Line the deflector up so that the opening in
the deflector plates faces backward. Secure
the deflector to the front hopper/frame tube
bolts with two hex nuts from hardware pack
3032810. See Figure 2-9.
