5INSTALL SAFETY CHAIN OR CABLE
It is important to install a safety chain or wire to prevent the vibrator
from falling and causing injury if it comes loose from its mount.
Attach chain to stationary object, not to mounting plate or
channel iron. Use the handle on the unit to attach
opposite end.
6MOUNTING OF VIBRATOR
NOTE: Damage
to the bin and the
vibrator can occur if
not mounted securely.
7BOLTING
Make sure the vibrator is
secured tightly. Retighten
after the rst 10 -15 minutes
of operation & check them
periodically to maintain
proper tightness.

The hose to the inlet port of the vibrator should have the
same or larger hose I.D. as the inlet I.D. (pipe size) of the
vibrator, so that the pressure loss from the compressor
to the vibrator is minimized.

optimum VPM stated in catalog.
