Feeder Line Assembly and Suspension
1.The auger tubes and feeders may be laid out end to end in approximately the final location of the line. The
belled end of each tube should be toward the Hopper end of the line.
See Figure 23.
2.Connect the individual feeder tubes together by inserting the straight end of one tube as far as possible into
the belled end of the next tube. The last Feeder Tube before the End Control Pan or Mid Line Control
pan needs to be a Control Tube.
End Control
3.To achieve total feed drop out all along
the system, the Chore-Time Logo should
be centered at the crown of the tubes and
all the Hangers should be installed as
shown in Figure 24..
4.Place a Tube Clamp Assembly or Clamp/
Anti-Roost Bracket at each joint. Figure
25. shows the standard Clamp and Clamp/
Anti-Roost Bracket.
Systems using 9' or 10' tubes require a
Clamp/Anti-Roost Bracket at every fifth
joint.
Systems using 12' tubes require a Clamp/
Anti-Roost Bracket at every fourth joint.
All other joints in the system use the
standard Tube Clamp Assembly.
Continue down the entire length of the feeder line so that every joint
is secured with a standard Clamp or Clamp/Anti-Roost Bracket.
Figure 26. shows the proper clamp location on the tube joint. Do
not tighten the clamp at this time.
