Cutting Tube to Correct Size

approximately 1/2" from the surface of the bearing. When the proper distance is achieved, mark
the tube for the cut.
(See Figure 4C.)

B. Remove the hopper from the tube. Slide the flight out of the discharge end of the tube. It is not
necessary to remove the flight completely; just slide it out far enough to clear the area where you
have marked the cut.
(See Figure 4D.)
NOTE: For 10" systems, the inspection cover and hanger bearing bolt will need to be removed
before flight can be slid out of discharge end.
C. Cut the tube where marked. Once cut is completed, can slide the flight back into the tube.
NOTE: On 10" systems, secure the hanger bearing to the U-joint with the bolt and lock washer and
reinstall the inspection cover. (See Figure 4E.)
