3. Decals A. DANGER Sign No. DC-1395 was supplied with your bin unloading equipment. This safety sign should be applied to the side of the bin near the bin opening, so it will be viewed by people entering into the bin storage building. Do not cover any safety signs or any other signs that are already there.
4. Introduction NEVER enter a grain bin unless ALL power driven equipment has been shut down. Disconnect and lock out power before entering the bin or servicing the equipment. General Information 1. GSI reserves the right to improve its product whenever possible and practical to do so. We reserve the right to change, improve and modify products at any time without obligation to make changes, improvements and modifications on equipment sold previously.
4. Introduction Capacities and Specifications Electrical controls and wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician. The motor disconnect switches and conductor cables should comply with the National Electrical code and any local codes which apply. Reset and motor starting stations should be located so the operator can see that all personnel are clear of the equipment.
Page 17
4. Introduction NOTE: The horsepower recommendations are for augering reasonably dry grain. High moisture grain (greater than 15%) will require greater power for maximum capacity. The maximum capacity will be less with high moisture grain than with dry grain. Sweep drive and carrier wheels require plates or track over aeration flooring for travel and supports not supplied with the sweep unit.
5. Assembly Docking Station Mount Securely mount the docking station outside of the bin near the bin door. Figure 5A shows the hole pattern and diameter. The docking station must be close enough to the bin door to plug in the 10' long foot switch cord.
5. Assembly Control Panel Conduit Hole (Pre-June 2010) NOTE: The Series II Sweep has used different control boxes. The quick disconnect kit will fit either style box. Hardware is provided to mount an older style box (with ears) to the mounting plate. The new style box already has hardware installed in the rear of the box.
5. Assembly Control Panel Installation Electrical controls should be installed by a qualified electrician and must meet standards set by the National Electrical Code and all local and state codes. A main power disconnect switch capable of being locked only in the OFF position should be used.

5. Assembly Based on where the outlet for the drop cord is installed on the panel, all three (3) mounting positions may not be possible. (See Figure 5D.) Figure 5D A sample installation configuration is shown in Figure 5E for the auger drive power outlet, tractor drive power outlet, overload for motor control outlet and the drop cord outlet.
5. Assembly Install each receptacle to the panel with the supplied hardware. Consult the wiring schematic in the panel enclosure for proper electrical connection locations. Once the receptacles have been properly installed, the auxiliary guidance handles can be attached to the panel assembly.
