ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTIONGalvanized materials are subject to unsightly white rust if moisture penetrates the wall

sheet bundle. To avoid this condition, separate wall sheets so that air can dry wall sheets.

Turning the wall sheet bundles over to a convex position is another way to prevent moisture

collecting between sheets.

If white rust does occur, remove using Oakite solution (or vinegar solution). Clean anddry surface and apply zinc-rich paint.

CONDITIONS AND LIMITATIONS

1. The product must be installed and operated in accordance with instructions published by the manufacturer or warranty will be void.

2. Warranty is void if all structural components of the system are not original equipment supplied by the manufacturer.

3. Grain bins/silos and augers are designed for grains and/or free flowing materials and are not warranted for other distribution or substances.Other use will void warranty.

4. BIN LOADING/UNLOADING WARNING: All grain bins, bulk feed tanks and hopper bottom tanks are designed to be filled and unloadedfrom the center of the bin or tank. Any other method of filling or unloading can result in structural damage to the bin. Any off-center dischargeopenings should be used for the sole purpose of bin clean-out after the center discharge has emptied the tank to the grains' natural angle ofrepose. Failure to limit the usage of any off-center discharge opening could result in non-warranted structural damage to the bin.

5. ROOF DAMAGE WARNING: All grain bins have been designed to be filled to within 1" (25 mm) of the top of the top ring at the grains'natural angle of repose. Filling beyond the top ring, so as to apply grain pressure to the underside of the roof or blockage of roof vents, mayresult in non-warranted structural damage to the roof. Roof damages due to excessive vacuum or internal pressure, caused by fans or otherair moving systems, are not warranted. Adequate roof vents must be provided for all air handling and aeration systems. Roof vents must notbe blocked by grain or freezing over due to operation during humid/cold weather conditions.

6. This product must be purchased from and installed by an authorized dealer or Certified Representative thereof or the warranty will be void.

7. Malfunctions, damage or failure resulting from misuse, abuse, negligence, alteration, accident, misapplication of specifications or lack ofproper maintenance shall not be considered defects under this warranty.

GRAIN BIN FLAT FOUNDATION PLAN

NOTE: WIRE MESH AND CONCRETE TOTALS WILL NEED TO BE INCREASED

FOR THE 4809 FARM BIN FOUNDATION.

GENERAL CONCRETE NOTES:

1. Site must be 95% compacted soil back-fill or undisturbed soil. Site must be free from standingwater and well drained.

2. Soil around footing ring must be uniform. (Not fine sand)3. Foundation design is based on uniform soil bearing capacity of 4000 lb. per square foot.

(2.0 kg/cm2) Concrete compressive strength at 28 days shall be 2500 psi. (176 kg/cm

2)

4. Add (1) pound (0.5 kg) to rebar requirements for each end lap. Lap bars 15 (380).5. These are general concrete foundation requirements, and should be evaluated with respect to

each site. Consult with a local engineer if site is questionable.6. Foundation should be poured smooth for proper weather seal and bin anchorage.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

1. Chart above has concrete and reinforcing bar quantities for the foundation illustrated. Top offoundation is 4 (100) above grade.

ERECTION PROCEDURES

INSTALLATION NOTES:

HAND TIGHTEN ALL BOLTS.

1. Place roof segment ring on center ringsupport.

2. Assemble top wall sheet ring. Make suretop holes are at 3 1/8 (79) spacing.Holes at bottom of sheet will be at 9 3/8

(238) spacing.3. Position the roof hatch panel next to the

desired sidewall ladder location & fasten

to segment ring. Attach the roof centerclip to roof panel and put the lower edge

of panel on the wall sheet ring.4. Continue with rest of roof panels by alternating around circumference of bin until all panels are

installed. Also attach center clips & rib clips to roof panels and wall sheets as you go also add roof

rib supports.5. The last roof panel should be next to the roof hatch panel. Attach roof ladder cleats while bolting

roof panels together

CAUTION: As last roof panel is installed, you may incur the following:Too much space Raise roof jack. This will close the gap.Too little space Lower the roof jack. This will lessen the slope & increase the space

required.

6. With everything in place, tighten all roof bolts.

ROOF VENT INSTALLATION(OPTIONAL PURCHASE)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOF VENT

1. Locate roof vent between roof ribs, as close to top of roof as possible, with vent opening ondownhill side.

2. Cut opening in roof panel 2 (50) smaller than vent opening. Form a 1 (25) lip up toward

inside of vent to provide a water stop.3. Apply adequate amount of weather-seal caulking at vent bolting flange to prevent leakage.4. Attach roof vent to roof panel with bolts. Drill holes as required to fasten vent securely to roof

panel.

5. Roof vent is manufactured entirely of galvanized sheet metal to prevent rusting; however, if

vent is welded to roof, rusting will occur.
