Slides can be opened from inside a barn, eliminating the need for an unnecessary shower-in/shower-out event.

Align the Automatic Bin Slide’s mounting rails over the transfer plate, making sure the slide(s) are properly engaging the tracks inside the transfer plate. Use the lower boot hardware to fasten the Bin Slide’s rails to the transfer plate (hardware may need to be re- placed if it is in poor condition).
GREEN PIN 4 → If connecting to the Chore-Time PigCentral control, only one end of the cable should be fitted with a circular connector. The other end should be stranded and stripped on each end as it will be attached to the control. If being attached to the standalone control, both ends must be fitted with circular connectors.
STANDALONE CONTROL CONNECTION If connecting a bin slide to a standalone control, simply connect the circular connector from the bin slide motor to a circular connector on the bottom of the box. The number of bin slides usable per box will depend on the model ordered. The standalone control will also need a power in from a power supply also using an M8 female connector.
