Auger Tubing Installation

The auger tubing is one of the most important parts of the Flex-Flo Fill System. Proper installation is very
important. Dry fit ALL parts before cementing or clamping. Once the complete system is fitting properly,
cement or clamp the entire system.

The following steps are to be performed in the exact order shown:

1. Establish the entry point where the auger tube will enter the building. Once the entry point is

determined, cut a hole large enough to accommodate the tubing. A seal ring and a neoprene seal
are provided to seal the excess area between the tube and the hole in the building. The seal ring and
the neoprene seal shall be installed as shown in

Figure 5J

.

2. Slide the elbow tubing through the hole in the building. Establish and cut (if necessary) the elbow at

the desire length to ensure that the auger tubing will be horizontal.

See Figure 5K on Page 21

for

proper cutting dimensions of the elbows at specific degree angles.

3. Fit and clamp a second elbow around the unloader outlet.

4. Slide the non-belled end of the straight tubing into the belled end of the “building” elbow. Hold the

straight tubing in the desired mounting position. Mark and cut the “unloader” elbow at the point where
it and the straight tubing intersect.
