Attach the pneumatic wheel (5) then a Ø16 flat washer (17) to the mounting tube axle. Secure with split pin (11) and repeat procedure for the

other side. Additional Ø16 flat washers (17) are provided to adjust the spacing between the axle bushing (18) and the pneumatic wheel (5).

4.4.

Rotate one pneumatic wheel (5) so that the hole on the inside of the wheel boss aligns with the corresponding hole in the axle tube. Insert

inner hex bolt M5x45 (10) through the axle tube and secure with lock nut M5 (12) as shown in figure 2.

4.5.

Attach the hitch tube (2) to the frame tube assembly tube (1) using hex bolt M6x40 (9), big flat washer M6 (15) and M6 lock nut (13) as

shown in figure 3. At this stage do not fully tighten the nut and bolt.

All nuts and bolts used for the braces (3) can now be fully tightened. Place the hopper (6) over the frame tube assembly (1) so that the shaft protruding from the impeller on the frame tube assembly locates into the swivel bush on the base of the hopper. Align the six bolt holes in the hopper assembly with the six bolt holes on the frame tube assembly and fit the Hex Bolts M6x40 (9) with the big flat washers M6 (15) at the bolt heads. Loosely attach the M6 lock nuts (13) as shown in figure 6. Adjust the hopper assembly over the frame tube assembly until the impeller is free to rotate without any resistance.
