Assemble And Suspend The Feeder Line - Chore-Time H2 PLUS Installation & Operator's Instruction Manual

Model H2™ Plus Feeding Systems

Assemble and Suspend the Feeder Line

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 26.
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.

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 27.
4. Place a Tube Clamp Assembly or Clamp/
Anti-Roost Bracket at each joint. Figure 28
shows the standard Clamp and Clamp/Anti-
Roost Bracket. Systems using 9' or 10'
tubes require a Clamp/Anti-Roost Brackets
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.
