SWEEP TRACTOR ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove wheel hubs from axle. (Assembled for ship-
ping only.)
2. Bolt the adapter plate (2) to the gear motor (3) using
four 3/8" x 1" hex head capscrews with four 3/8"
lockwashers.
3. Install right side chain around the right side sprockets.
4. Slide right side chain guard (12) onto the axle.
5. Bolt the adpater plate (2) to the gear motor mount by
placing a 3/8" x 1-1/2" through the left side slots in the
adapter plate (2), four flat washers, gear motor mount
(4), one flat washer, the right side chain guard (12), and
finally, a hex nut. Repeat this with the left side slots in
the adapter plate (13), but replace the right side chain
guard with the left side chain guard mount bracket (14).
(See Fig. 1)
6. Attach the other right side chain guard flange &
support tube weldment (7) to the sweep tractor assem-
bly using (2) 1/2" x 4" hex head capscrews and nuts.
7. Assemble 13 tooth sprocket (5) to gear motor shaft (6)
using a 1/4" key x 1" long. Align 13 tooth sprocket (5)
with 40 tooth sprocket (6) before tightening the
sprocket setscrews.
8. Install chain around the sprockets. Use slots in gear
motor mount to tighten the chain. Once chain is tight,
completely tighten bolts that hold gear motor to mount
from step 5.
9. Bolt the left side chain guard (13) to the mount bracket
(14) using (2) 3/8" x 1" HHCS & lock washers.
10. Replace wheel hubs onto the axle.
11. Assemble segmented rubber wheel (1) to hubs with
1/2" nylon locknuts (four for each wheel.)
12. Slide the weight bracket weldment (8) onto the support
tube weldment (7) and secure with a
3/16" x 1-1/2" cotter pin.
13. Place the 50 lb. weights (9) on the weight bracket
weldment (8).
14. Loosely attach the weight clamps (10) to the weight
bracket (11) using two 1/4" x 3/4" carriage bolts,
1/4" lockwasher, & 1/4" flat washer. Do not tighten yet
to allow for adjustment later on.
15. Attach the weight bracket (11) to the weight bracket
weldment (8) with a 3/4" hex nut. Tighten the nut so
the weight bracket is securely against the top of the
50 lb. weights (9).
16. Slide the weight clamps (10) out against the sides of
the 50 lb. weights (9) and tighten to secure the
weights in place.(See Fig. 1.)
17. Electric wiring for motor and controls shall be installed
by a qualified electrician and must meet the standards
set by the National Electrical Code and all local and a
state codes.
18. Run wiring for motor forward to the sweep shield along
sweep mount tube. Attach the wiring to the mount
sufficiently to keep wiring from contacting sweep
tractor wheels.
19. At the center of the bin the wiring for the tractor may
either be connected with the sweep flight motor wiring
or a separate wire may be run to the outside of the
bin. If the tractor wiring is connected to the wiring for
the sweep flight motor, then the tractor will turn on and
off with the sweep. If a separate wire is run to the
outside of the bin, then the tractor can be operated
independently.
