2.7 ATTACH DISCHARGE TUBE
1. Attach one clamping ring (1) and one spacer ring (2)
to discharge tube base (3) using three 3/8 x 1-1/4"
bolts (4) and nylock nuts (5). Tighten leaving 1/16"
gap to assist in mounting to ange. See Figure 2.6.
2. Slide the tube onto the mounting ange on the
chipper frame. The discharge clamp (1) should slide
underneath the lip of the ange. Tighten the bolts to
secure it.
3. Install the second half of the spacer (2) and clamp
ring (1) on the discharge tube with 3/8 x 1-1/4" bolts
(4) and nylock nuts (5).
