Cut Out Discharge Hole in Trough Bottom
NOTE: Gates have slotted holes for slight adjustment.
1. Determine the location of the discharge and identify the specific intermediate section that must be
modified to mount the gate.
2. Measure from the intermediate flange connection and mark the centerline of the discharge on the
intermediate bottom (dimension “A”). (See Figure 3B.)
3. Refer to the trough hole dimensions chart for the required cut size for the gate opening,
dimensions “B” and “C”. Dimensional values are centered around the discharge location,
dimension “D” can be used as a reference.
4. Mark the opening outline on the intermediate bottom and verify the size with the gate opening prior
to cutting the material.
5. Clean up the cut with a grinder to remove burrs and rough edges. The gate’s carry-over bar frame
must be able to fit inside the opening.
