5. With the help of another person, place the
lower drum on the frame assembly, as shown

Figure 7. The gear guard MUST remain

son, it is not installed in the location shown in
Figure 7, then install it now.
6. Attach the bearing block to the frame with
one M8-1.25 x 60 hex bolt on one side and
one 8mm flat washer, lock washer, and hex
nut on the other side (
Figure 8).

8. Attach the lower end of the mixing blades
to the lower drum, placing a plastic washer
between the mixing blade and the drum
mounting holes (
Figure 10). At each attach-
ment, use an M10-1.5 x 20 Phillips head
screw on one side and a 10mm flat washer,
lock washer, and hex nut on the other side.
Leave the fasteners loose for now.
Note: Since these fasteners will be regu-
larly exposed to water, we suggest coat-
ing them with anti-seize or bearing grease
before assembly to prevent them from rusting
together. Repeat this process on the fasten-
ers used in
Steps 9–10, as well.
7. Place the upper bracket over the pivot shaft,
and attach the upper bracket to the frame
with two M8-1.25 x 20 hex bolts on one side

hex nuts on the other side (
Figure 9).
