Assembly Option 1 : Upright To be built under the bin (stiffened or un-stiffened). Step 1 Preparation: Install the leg base plates to the lower legs ( - ) or legs ( - ). Make them ready to install.

Make them ready to install.( all stiffened hoppers ) (this picture shows stiffened hopper leg V face plate assembly, as an example) Install the 3/8 x1.5 bolts to upper flat leg faces.

Also install the leg gussets (-- unstiffened) (this picture shows un-stiffened hopper leg, as an example) Install the stiffener connection brackets to leg V shaped face as indicated below. Make them ready to install.( all stiffened hoppers ) (this picture shows stiffened hopper leg V face plate assembly, as an example) Install the 3/8 x1.5 bolts to upper flat leg faces.( bolts and nuts) ( This is for - stiffened hopper tanks only) Install the 3/8 x1.5 bolts to upper flat leg gusset.( bolts and nuts) ( This is for - stiffened hopper tanks only) Step Raise the tank with jacks and install the outer ring to the tank.

Note: In hopper, every hopper sheet covers 1.5 leg spacing. Insert the bolts through the hopper gusset in those locations. Keep torched edge of hopper sheets inside of the hopper tank..! 6 ASSEMBLY OPTION 1 : UPRIGHT

7 Step 8 The three bolts at the top of the upper hopper sheet vertical seam are the hardest to install. Thus we have included the hopper upper seam weldment to make assembly easier the weldments come assembled with 3 weldnuts that eliminate the need to struggle with trying to thread a bolt and nut in this tight space. The three weldnuts will be the nuts for first three bolts of vertical seam. Install upper seam weldments as shown below. Use 5/16 x 3/ flanged bolts for these 3 holes. Application of caulking: CAULKING HOPPER SEAM WELDMENT shown but same principle applies to all! Step 9 Install the inner ring and X braces Install all X brace and ring brace angles face down as in the drawing. X braces have one long and one short notched end. Longer notched end will be in the lower position. SHORTER NOTCHED END LONGER NOTCHED END This picture shows hopper bottom. Install yours accordingly. ASSEMBLY OPTION 1 : UPRIGHT

8 Step 10 After installation of upper hopper sheets, ring and X braces it is necessary to raise the tank for rest of the installation. ( This is just for & hoppers. If your hopper is one piece leg ( & ), you can go to Step 11. Raise the tank and install the lower section of legs. This picture shows hopper bottom at Step 10 of installation. Step 11 Now you can continue with installation of lower hopper sheets. Overlap the lower hopper sheet equally to the upper two hopper sheet sections. ( See the previous image ) Apply caulking to the vertical seams at outer edge of overlap. ( Same application done for upper hopper sheet ) Keep the torched edge of the hopper sheet on the inside of the hopper. Overlapping the hopper sheets prevents water, rain leak. The upper edge of the lower hopper sheet and the upper edge of the hopper collar will be on the inside of the hopper. After installing half of the hopper sheets install the hopper collar and then continue installing hopper sheets. This picture shows hopper at Step 11 of the installation. 8 ASSEMBLY OPTION 1 : UPRIGHT

Apply the same rules as indicated above.

9 Step Now you can install all remaining X braces. Apply the same rules as indicated above. Step 13 Now you can install the hopper braces. Step 1 Now you can start to install all leg face plates and stiffener connections - stiffened hoppers: 1-Install the upper flat leg face plate first. ASSEMBLY OPTION 1 : UPRIGHT 9

$\ -Install stiffener extensions.$

10 -Install all stiffener extensions. 3-Than install the lower flat leg face plate and V shaped face plate together. - stiffened hoppers: 1-Install the upper flat leg gusset. Now all bolts of the face plates can be inserted and tightened.\ -Install stiffener extensions. 3-Now install the all V shaped face plate assemblies to all legs. 10 ASSEMBLY OPTION 1 : UPRIGHT

Assembly Option : Upside down In this type of installation a crane will be necessary to flip the hopper bottom

Please refer to Assembly Option 1 in the previous section for supplemental assembly information.

Apply the caulking on the hopper sheet vertical seams as explained in the previous section ( see page ).

13 Assembly Option : Upside down In this type of installation a crane will be necessary to flip the hopper bottom upright after assembly. Please refer to Assembly Option 1 in the previous section for supplemental assembly information. Step 1 : Assemble the outer ring. Step : Install the hopper sheets. Apply the caulking on the hopper sheet vertical seams as explained in the previous section ( see page ). After half of the hopper sheets are installed, install the hopper collar. Step 3 : Install the legs. See pages 5, 9-10 for more details. NOTE: During the installation of the hopper sheets it is not necessary to use the hopper upper seam weldment parts because the inner ring is not yet installed; there is adequate space to use regular nuts. It is your decision whether you use the weldment or not. 5/16 x 3/ flanged bolts are still required for the top 3 holes of the vertical seam. ASSEMBLY OPTION : UPSIDE DOWN 13

Step : Install the ring spacers and inner

braces Step 6: Install the hopper braces.

All ladder assembly can be done similarly

14 Step : Install the ring spacers and inner rings Step 5 : Install the ring and X braces Step 6: Install the hopper braces. Now that installation is mostly complete, flip the hopper right side up by the use of a crane. All ladder assembly can be done similarly to what was explained in the previous section see page ASSEMBLY OPTION : UPSIDE DOWN
