Chapter 3: Dryer Supports

Guidelines for Supporting the Dryer with Leg Stands

Before filling the dryer with grain, the dryer frame must be supported with either concrete blocks or leg
stands. Leg stands are optional and available in seven different sizes to accommodate various dryer
heights.

Leg Stand Height Options

Leg stands are optional and must be ordered separately from your dryer. If you do not have leg stands,
you must support the dryer with concrete blocks.

Leg Stand Spacing

Correct leg spacing is important to adequately support the dryer during operation. Incorrect spacing might
result in unstable operating conditions.

Leg Spacing for Standard Dryers

Starting at the back corner of the dryer (A), space legs 4 ft (1.22 m) apart and move towards the front (B).
Spacing between the front legs (C) can be 2 ft (0.61 m) or 4 ft (1.22 m), depending on the length of the
dryer.
