All packages have been structured with the correct components for each ring height grain
bin from 6 rings to 37 rings. Be sure and follow the complete instruction sheets for correct
placement of parts. Failure to do so may result in improper fit of parts or shortage of parts. Read
through the complete set of instructions before proceeding with erection of grain bin.
Considerable thought must be given as to location of ladders and platforms in relation to other
equipment and structures.
STARTING LOCATION OF LADDERS
Ladder placement is very critical as to assure proper fit of all parts later on as safety cage is
bolted in place. Locate the proper place for the roof ladder and manway this will establish the
location of the ladder. Ladder must be centered directly below the roof ladder. Refer to the dia-
gram below for proper location of field drilled holes (3/8"). Holes must be 18 3/4" apart and 8"
below the top horizontal row of holes directly in line with the holes to be used for the platform
mounting angle. Platform must be located 9 3/8" to the right of the ladder holes. All of these
dimensions are very critical to assure proper fit of all parts!
