Install Compression Channel
After the compression angle weldments have been aligned, place the compression channels under the
compression angle weldments and fasten with 5/8"-11 x 2" bolts to the column attachment plates. Fasten
the inside and outside vertical compression angle segments to the channel, see
Figure 7D . Use the
supplied compression channel shim (CHT-1536) if necessary. Do not tighten bolts until hopper panels
are installed to allow alignment.
