4. When completed there should be a set of parallel lines “B” dimensions apart.

5. Start at bin wall with shortest floor piece. POSITION SUPPORTS FOR THIS PIECE AS SHOWN ON

SUPPORT LAYOUT FOR CORRECT BIN DIAMETER AND SUPPORT SPACING. Be sure flat side
of floor piece is facing bin wall and is at designated distance from the wall. (The open channel edge
of floor must be facing the center of the bin.)

6. POSITION THE NEXT ROW OF SUPPORTS ACCORDING TO THE CHALK LINES

and support

layout. The straight tab should “snap” under the first (previous) floor piece. After the supports in the
row are correctly positioned, install the next floor piece by hooking the open channel edge under the
outside hooks of the floor supports. Push down sharply on the edge of the floor piece until it snaps
into the previous floor piece.

(See Figure 2C.)

Continue this process for the rest of the floor cutting

planks for center and intermediate wells as needed.

See Figure 5A on Page 14

for center well

support locations.

NOTE: Whenever there is more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") of plank unsupported

beside the bin wall, there should be a support on that plank or a support on each of the
planks adjacent to it such that no more than Dimension “B” divided by three inches (B/3") is
unsupported.

IMPORTANT: First piece of flooring must start at the
proper distance from centerline of bin. Refer to floor
layout

on Page 15

. First piece may need to be

trimmed for length to fit at the proper location.
