Sioux Tools 166156 User manual

1
This feeder is designed for feeding an average hog
from about 40 pounds up to about 250 pounds. Some
different breeds of hogs might require modifications,
different feed flow adjustments, or different feeding
techniques for this feeder to do its job properly.
Contact your Sioux dealer if you have any questions.
STEP #1 Check the parts against the packing list. Any claims for damage in shipping
should be made with the delivering carrier immediately. Any shortage claims against
the packing list should be made to Sioux Steel Co. promptly. When ordering repair
parts please use the correct part number as shown on the packing list.
STEP #2 If the taper hopper has not already been bolted to the bottom assembly,
position it so that the twelve holes on the taper hopper line up with the twelve holes
on the inner band. The taper hopper should be placed outside the inner band/drain
channel assembly. Use 1/4 x 5/8 hex head bolts and 1/4 flange nuts (heads to the
outside). Refer to illustration #1 for part identification.
STEP #3 Install the (4) adjuster tubes (166173). IMPORTANT – Attach each tube to
the adjusting band with 5/16 lock nuts and 5/16 flat washers as seen in illustration #7.
At this point DO NOT tighten these nuts. Attach the tops of the adjuster tubes to the
adjuster disk with 5/16 lock nuts – make sure the concave side of the disk is up. Be
cautious not to over-tighten these nuts. Do not assemble the adjuster crank at this
time.
STEP #4 The hopper rings are pairs of sections which should be assembled into
rings before being set on the taper hopper.
Hopper Extension Assembly
Assemble the two hopper extension sections together with 1/4 x 5/8 bolts and 1/4
flange nuts in all except the top and bottom holes of the vertical seams. Lap the ends
together according to illustration #8 and any markings on the sections. Position the
completed extension ring over the taper hopper with the fold down. Position the
vertical seam on the extension hopper to the front (between the skids). Secure the
extension ring to the taper hopper with 1/4 x 5/8 bolts and 1/4 flange nuts.
Main Hopper Extension Assembly
Position the hopper splice over the main hopper section rolled ends and secure the
front hopper section to the rear section with the 1/4 x 5/8 bolts and 1/4 flange nuts in
all the holes of the vertical seam except the bottom holes. The sections are lapped
together according to illustration #8, with the hemmed edge down. Position the main

hopper assembly onto the extension hopper assembly so that the section with the hole
for the lid lock (1 hole) is toward the front of the feeder (this is the side the step will
be attached & the side the feeder will be filled from). Secure the main hopper to the
extension hopper with 1/4 x 5/8 bolts and 1/4 flange nuts. Attach the lid lock to the
front hopper section loosely with a #10 x 1/2 locking screw & #10 hex nut; do not
over-tighten, the lid lock must swing freely. Attach the lid hold down clip directly
opposite the lid lock with two (2) 1/4 x 5/8 hex bolt and 1/4 flange nuts.
Attach step as shown in illustration #6 using 1/4 x 5/8 hex bolts, and 1/4 flange nuts.
If holes are not provided for the steps, holes must be drilled (9/32 diameter). Prick
marks are provided at four (4) spots around each hopper ring for this purpose.
STEP #5 Assemble the adjuster crank to the adjuster bar with 1/2 flat washers and
3/16 x 1 cotter pins as shown in illustration #2. Thread the adjuster crank down into
the adjuster disk about 1". Position the ends of the adjuster bar in line with the
hopper splice clips and secure each end with 1/4 x 5/8 hex head bolts and 1/4 flange
nuts. Turn the crank to make sure the feed adjusting band moves up and down its
entire range freely. It is usually best to leave the threads of the adjuster crank
ungreased. Dust and feed tend to build up on the greased threads and in time forms a
gummy deposit that interferes with the adjustment.
STEP #6 Attach the lid stop to the top lid using 1/4 x 5/8 hex head bolts, 1/4 flange
nuts and 1-1/4 flat washer (flat washer & bolt head on top). Attach the lid w-rod to
the top lid using 1/4 x 5/8 bolts, 1/4 flange nuts as shown in illustration #4. Position
the lid over the main hopper according to illustration #4, raise the front by the handle,
and slide the lid back until it is held by the lid stop. With the top lid in the open
position attach the lid w-rod brackets to the adjuster bar using 1/4 x 5/8 hex head
bolts, 1/4 flange nuts. See illustration #4.
STEP #7 Make sure the feed band is completely flat against the bottom of the feeder
and tighten the 5/16 lock nuts. See illustration #7.
STEP #8 For standard ground feeds and for pigs weighing about 100 pounds the
suggested starting feed band adjustment height is 1-1/8. Adjust up or down from this
starting adjustment to suit your operating conditions.
In normal operation when the feeder is level the depth of feed in all openings is
approximately the same. If the feeder cannot be leveled, or if it is desired to change
the feed depth on any particular side of the trough, washer(s) may be inserted
between the adjuster tubes and the adjuster disk to tilt the feed adjusting band in the
desired direction.
