Anti-Roost Assembly - Chore-Time Konavi Pullet Feeding System Installation And Operator's Manual

Anti-Roost Assembly

1.Unroll the bulk anti-roost cable. Note: If the cable is unrolled as
shown in Figure 35., taking 5 loops of the coil with one hand, then
changing hands to remove 5 loops as it is unrolled, it will lie flat
during installation.
2.Start at the hopper end of the line and form a
loop around the anti-roost bracket. For best
results, make a double loop around the anti-
roost insulator in the center groove of the
insulator and fasten with a 1/16" cable clamp as
shown in Figure 36.
3.Insert the cable in the insulator on the top of
each Grill Support between the hopper and the
next anti-roost bracket.
4.Attach a spring in the center groove at the
second anti-roost bracket and cut the cable at
this point. see figure 37.
5.Thread the ends of the cable through the end
of the spring. Pull the cable tight so that
there is 3/4" to 1" [20 to 25 mm] of stretch in
the spring. Clamp the cable to form a loop
and cut off any excess. see figure 37.
6.Attach the cable to the insulator. For best
results, make a double loop around the anti-
roost insulator in the center groove of the
insulator and fasten with a 1/16" cable clamp
as shown in Figure 37.
7.Run the cable to the next insulator, attach a
spring in the center groove at the anti-roost
bracket and cut the cable at this point. The
cable should be positioned in the insulator
built into the top of each grill support along the feeder line.
8.Repeat this installation until the anti-roost cable is installed along the entire feeder line.
