STEP 1
Locate the bracket a minimum of 4 feet
from the grain bin floor (slightly behind
the sweep auger storage position and
high enough on the inside so when
storing hoses they hang above and do
not catch on the sweep when running).
STEP 2
Using the hose storage bracket as a
template mark the holes to be drilled
inside the bin. Using a 5/16” drill bit drill
the holes on the top of the corrugation
ridge.
STEP 3
Inside the bin directly below the storage
bracket (in the valley of the corrugation)
mark where the holes will be drilled for
the bulkheads. They should be about 3.5”
apart.
STEP 4
Using a 3/4” step bit drill the 2 holes. If
you are using a step bit that is larger than
3/4” check to make sure you do not over
size the holes.
