Power Sweeps in Bins with Raised Metal Floors

For bins with raised metal floors, it is necessary to cut openings in the floor for the center well and
intermediate wells. Make sure the metal floor is high enough above the concrete base so there is space
for the wells. It would be convenient to complete assembly of the bin floor as the power sweep is being
installed for better access to components under the floor.

1. Locate the center of the bin and make a cut-out in the bin floor for the center well.

See Figure 4B

for

cut-out size and location of 6" and 8" wells.

See Figure 4C

for 10" wells. Locate the vertical shaft

between the gearboxes in the center of the bin. Place suitable supports under the center well to hold
it in position.
