STEP 7: Drum Assembly
Select:
• 1 Endcap (item 14)
• 1 Drum Body Assembly (from Step 6)
1) Place the endcap, name plate down, on work surface.
Note position of the screen on the endcap.
Carefully pick up the 3 sectioned partially assembled
drum from Step 1 and by bending it with the mixing fins
on the inside, fit it into the rim of the endcap, forming
three-quarters of the cylinder. Be careful to locate the
center panel (Segment A) adjacent to the screen and fit
the mixing fins on both sides of this segment into the
alignment slots of the endcap.
STEP 8: Latch Attachment
Select:
• 1 Door Frame Segment (item 15)
• 2 Latches (item 20)
• 2 Latch hooks (item 19)
• 8 #10 Bolts (silver) (item 22)
• 8 #10 Flat Washers (item 23)
• 8 #10 Lock Washers (item 24)
• 1 Door (item 21)
1) With the Door Frame Segment resting on the work
surface, attach the Latches to the panel on top of the
raised mounting holes with the hooks toward the opening
using: 1 #10 Bolt (silver), 1 #10 Flat Washer, 1 #10
Lock Washer and 1 #10-32 Hex Nut on each side
of both Latches. Be sure the Bolt is on the underside
of the panel in the recess, with the Flat Washer, Lock
Washer and Hex Nut on top of the Latch. Use the flat
head screwdriver and 3/8" wrench to tighten all Latch
mounting fasteners.
2) Position the Latch Hooks on the other side of the panel
opening with the hook ends toward the opening. Secure
them the same way as the latches, but make the fasteners
only hand tight.
3) Position the Door in place on the panel. Fit the notches
on one end of the Door into the Hooks on the panel, and
the hooks of the Latches into the notches on the other side
of the Door. Close the latches to check their tension, they
should "snap" closed, but should not be too difficult to
open. Loosen and adjust the Latch Hook fasteners to get
the proper tension, then tighten them with the flat head
screwdriver and 3/8" (10 mm) wrench.
4) Remove the Door for the next step.
