6.1 MN - Skid or blocks
6.2
The BBF has 30-degree cuts in the side frame. Lift the front of the
BBF until these 30-degree flats rest flat on the ground. Use a skid
or blocks to prop the BBF in this position. Make sure to brace the
BBF on the front and rear side so that it is not able to tip either
direction.
7.1
MN - (1) Standard channel
- (1) Tensioning channel
- (4) ½”-13 x 1-1/2” carriage bolts
- (4) ½”-13 “whiz” flange nuts
- (2) ½”-13 x X” carriage bolts, for tensioning
- (6) ½”-13 hex nuts, for tensioning
- (2) beaded spacer tubes 7/8” long
- (6) 1/2” standard washers
7.2 TN - ¾” combination wrench
7.3 Place standard channel in frame slots closest to blower, the
channel will overhang the frame on the right. Place (2) carriage
bolts through the square holes and thread on nuts lightly; it is
necessary for rails to be able to slide. Holding the tensioning
channel with the overhang to the right side place the (2) tensioning
carriage bolts down through the square holes in the brackets
welded to the bottom of the channel. The length of the tensioning
carriage bolts will depend on the center distance that the drive
belts are designed for. Note: There are 2 options for length of the
carriage bolts depending on center distance on the 2” or 2-1/2”
frames.
7.4
The 7” long carriage bolt does not have thread on the part closet to
the head & will require a spacer before threading on a nut. The 4
½” carriage bolts require a washer on the part closest to the head
before threading on a nut. Thread (1) hex nut up the length of each
carriage bolt and tighten them on the bracket. Thread the other
hex nuts halfway up the length of each carriage bolt. Then place
the tensioning channel on the frame slots at the front of the BBF: at
the same time feeding the tensioning carriage bolts through the
holes in the angle iron that is welded to the frame. Once the
channel is in place, put (2) carriage bolts through the square holes
and thread on nuts lightly; the rail needs to be able to slide.
