INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation of Tank and Saddle

  1.  Bolt the frame and the legs to the forage harvester’s tongue using the 5/8” u-bolts. Check for wheel clearance and other obstructions. The leg with the pump may be positioned in either the front or back place. But the pump should face away from the opposite leg for easy plumbing access.

  2.  Bolt the tank saddle into the legs using the ½” bolts provided.

  3.  Place the tank in the saddle with end fitting on the same end as the pump. Use the 5/16”x3” bolts and double nut them.

  4.  Thread the valve and filter into the side fitting of the tank. Run a line to the intake of the pump (see arrows on the pump.)

  5.  Wire the switch to a 12 volt power source on the tractor.

  6.  Locate the band lubricator nozzle on the side of the blower housing according to the diagram to the right. The assembly must be located in the area of the blower before The feed intake and after the feed discharge. After selecting the mounting location cut an oblong hole 21/2” long and 1-3/4” wide on a straight radius line so that edge of the hole is 2” from the outside of the band. Line-up the two scored marks on the nozzle assembly with the radius line and weld the nozzle in place. Make sure that the spray tip is lined up with the scored mark of the inside of the nozzle housing and that the inside and outside scores are lined up.

  7.  Run a line from the pump’s discharge to the nozzle assembly, securing it with the ties provided.

  1.  Mount the nozzle assembly above the cross auger by drilling a 9/16” hole in the side or top of the auger case. Run the plumbing line from the pump discharge to the nozzle assembly.
    ( Note: Quick connect fittings at both nozzles make it easy to select the point of spray if you leave enough slack in the line to reach either nozzle.)
