Dual Hopper Load Cell Assembly Installation
1. Loosen all of the right, left and middle hopper 1/2 bolts that hold the seed hopper to the frame. Do not
remove.
2. Remove the middle hopper hardware that holds the hopper to the main frame and if possible, on the
inner frame on the right and left side (that runs under the seed bin) place a jack between the frame and
seed hopper to support the middle of both hoppers. Lift the seed hopper up so that the middle load cell
assembly can slide underneath the middle. It is recommended the hopper be supported by two
methods when attaching the load cells and brackets. In addition to lifting the hopper with a chain or
nylon strap, the hopper should be supported in the middle with a hydraulic jack or stands.
IMPORTANT: The lifting chains, bucket attachments, loader/skid steer or winch must be capable of
lifting and controlling 1000 lbs.
3. Slide the middle load cell assembly with the support weldments between the two hopper middle
mounting flanges. Secure with mounting hardware listed in Figure 5. Keep the hardware loose. It may
be necessary to loosen or remove the meter drive chain.
4. Install the outer load cell supports and follow steps listed on page 4, steps 1 - 6.
5. After all the 4 load cells are installed Install the outer 5/8" x 4.0 check bolts flat washer and 5/8 jam nut
(qty-8 on all load cell assemblies. Thread the 5/8 bolt into the lower bracket threaded hole until the
check bolts bottoms out on the main hopper support frame. Then secure with the 5/8 jam nut. The 5/8
check rods should be centered in the top plate 7/8" diameter clearance hole. If not loosen the eight 1/2
x 1.0 bolts and adjust and align the top and bottom plates and retighten 1/2 x 1.0 bolts.
