ATTACHING HOPPER EXTENSION TO HOPPER
For European models only (14268, 9060140, and 12547)
Tools Required:
5/32” Hex drive wrench (i.e: allen wrench)
7/16” Wrench for 1/4-20 flange nut
NOTE: Assemble extension before adding fuel or engine oil.
To attach the hopper extension:
1) Before bolting the handle into position, slide one hopper ex-
tension half (1709470) over the rim of the hopper. The groove
around the inside bottom of the hopper extension should fit
over the rim around the top of the hopper. SEE FIGURE 4
2) Ensuring the hopper and hopper extension holes are now
aligned along the top rim of the hopper, place a 1/4-20 x 3/4
bolts (1960507) through each of the four holes in the extension
and hopper. Secure bolts in place with the included 17/64 x 5/8
flat washers (1921319) and 1/4-20 flange nuts (1930642). DO
NOT fully tighten hardware at this point. SEE FIGURE 4
3) Bolt handle into position using appropriate hardware. Lay the
unit down, resting the handle on a piece of cardboard to pre-
vent scratching.
4) Follow Step 1 to install the second extension half to the opposite
side of the hopper. Again, the bottom groove of the hopper
extension should fit over the rim at the top of the hopper. Align
the bolt holes between the top of the hopper and bottom of the
hopper extension and insert hardware. SEE FIGURE 5
5) Place a 1/4-20 x 3/4 bolt (1960507) in each of the three holes
along the two seams of the joined hopper extension halves.
Secure each bolt with a flat washer and flange nut. DO NOT
fully tighten. SEE FIGURE 6
6) Place bolt through each of the two holes on top of the joined hopper
extension. Secure with flat washer and flange nut. SEE FIGURE 7
7) Once all hardware has been inserted, use 5/32” allen wrench and
7/16” wrench to fully tighten all hardware, including those around
hopper rim and along the hopper extension seams.
