The word NOTE is used to convey information

that is out of context with the manual text. It

contains special information such as

specifications, techniques and reference

information of a supplementary nature.

The word IMPORTANT is used in the text when

immediate damage will occur to the machine due

to improper technique or operation. Important will

apply to the same information as specified by

note only of an immediate and urgent nature.

It is the responsibility of the user to read the

operator’s manual and comply with the safe and

correct operating procedure and to lubricate and

maintain the product according to the

maintenance schedule in the operator’s manual.

The user is responsible for inspecting his

machine and for having parts repaired or

replaced when continued use of the product

would cause damage or excessive wear to the

other parts.

It is the user’s responsibility to deliver his

machine to the Yetter dealer who sold him the

product for service or replacement of defective

parts, which are covered by the warranty policy.

BOLT TORQUE

Important: Over-tightening hardware can cause just as much damage as under-tightening.

Tightening hardware beyond the recommended range can reduce its shock load capacity.

All hardware on the 5000 Devastator is either Grade 5 or Grade 8, unless otherwise noted. Grade 5 cap screws are marked

with three radial lines on the head. Grade 8 cap screws are marked with six radial lines on the head. If hardware must be

replaced, be sure to replace it with hardware of equal size, strength & thread type. Refer to the torque values chart when

tightening hardware.

The chart below is a guide for proper torque. Use it unless a specified torque is called out elsewhere in the manual.

Torque is the force applied to the end of the handle or cheater bar, times the length of the handle or bar.

Use a torque wrench wherever possible

The following table shows torque in ft.-lbs. for coarse thread hardware.

INSTALLATION TOOLS REQUIRED:

- Pneumatic or electric impact driver

- ¾ & 15/16 size sockets

- 10” impact driver extension

- Ratchet

- ¾, 15/16, & 1 1/8 size wrenches

- 5/16 Allen Wrench

- Torque Wrench

5000-022B ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

(LEXION C512-30 / CAPELLO)

Note: Before starting installation, clean the corn head of debris, remove the guards, & lift the snouts.

Step 1: Attach the 5000-250 mount brackets to the frame using the 4) 5/8 x 7” bolts, mounting straps, & 5/8 lock hex nuts.

Mounting Brackets will be located under the snouts between rows 1 & 2, 2 & 3, 4 & 5, 5 & 6, 7 & 8, 8 & 9, 10 & 11, and

11 & 12. Slide the mount bracket up so the deck plate adjustment rod is located in the cut out of the mount bracket.

Note: Do not fully tighten hardware until Step 6 after all of the pivot arms & springs are installed.

Arrows indicate 5000-250 mount bracket locations

NOTE: NOTCHES NEED CUT IN THE GUARDS TO ALLOW THE MOUNTING BOLTS TO BE USED. CUT

THESE NOTCHES AFTER THE COMPLETION OF THE DEVASTATOR INSTALLATION. IN SOME

SITUATIONS, A HOLE MAY NEED DRILLED IN THE MOUNTING TAB FOR THE GUARDS. POSITION THE

DECK PLATE ADJUSTER VERTICALLY TO HAVE CLEARANCE IN THE DEVASTATOR MOUNT OPENING.

5000-022B ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Step 2: Attach the 5000-309 support straps using the ½” x 2” carriage bolts & ½ flange lock nuts, tighten.

Step 3: Install the 5000-323 lock-up pin in the storage location on the mount brackets. Secure with the

hairpin clips.

STORAGE LOCATION PINNED UP LOCATION

5000-022B ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Step 4: Attach the pivot arms, using the lower of the 2 holes, to the mount brackets using

the 5/8” X 3 bolts, pivot bushings, and lock hex nuts. Tighten this hardware.

Step 5: Install the push rods into the mount brackets then attach to the pivot arms with

the 5/8” shoulder bolts, washers, and ½” jam lock nuts.

Note: The washers are installed on each side of the “eye” of the push rod.

Now install the compression spring, spring bushing, and ¾” lock hex nuts. Tighten the

hardware from Step 5 to the specification in the diagram below.

NOTE: Tightening the nut on the spring bushing more will result in added

down pressure. However, DO NOT tighten the nut on the spring bushing

down so far that spring compression limits pivot arm travel. This will cause

the spring to break, especially if spring is compression all off-season.

5000-022B ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Step 6: Secure the mounting bracket installed in Step 1 at this time by tightening the 5/8 X 7” bolts & 5/8

lock nuts. Make sure the compression spring clears the cylinder channel, gathering chains, & deck plate

adjustment. The offset pivot arm clamp should be under the snout, not directly under the row.

Step 7: Install the Roller Arm Mount Tube inside the clamp channel of the pivot arms using the 5000-

138 bolt bag. Do not tighten this hardware until after the rollers have been installed in Step 8.

Step 8: Insert the shim washer over the shaft on each end of the roller. Install the bearing over the shaft

on each end of the roller so that the side of the casting that has the bearing protruding past the housing

surface is towards the roller barrel & shim washer. Lift each roller into place so that the bolt holes on the

cast housing of the bearing line up with the holes on the mounting tabs on the roller arm mount tube. Install

the ½” X 2 ½” bolts & tighten the ½” lock nuts. Once the roller & bearing hardware is fastened, spin the

roller to ensure the bearing was installed correctly. If the roller was installed incorrectly, the roller will not

spin or will have drag. Slide the roller mount tube to gain clearance on each end of the corn head & then

tighten the hardware from Step 7. The traction bars DO NOT have to be directly centered under the row.
