Installing the leg structure
Assemble the leg structure onto the prepared foundations or steelwork using
the supplied GA drawing which shows the position of all the legs and cross braces.
Ensure all the nuts and bolts are tightened and the structure is mechanically sound
and secure, and level before proceeding to the next stage.
Anchors must comply with local code requirements and must be capable of
supporting dead, live, wind, seismic, and other applicable loads for the area the
dust collector is going to be installed.
Consult with a qualified engineer for foundation and anchoring design.
9.2.3
Installing the hoppers
Position the hopper(s) onto the leg structure and fix it into position using the
GA drawing as a guide. Level the hopper once installed.
9.2.4
Collector Housing
Apply sealant (supplied by AAF) to the upper flanges of the hopper(s)
ensuring the sealant circles around each bolt hole.
Lift the housing module(s) using its lifting lugs and lower into position onto
the hoppers so that the holes in the matching flanges correctly align.
CAUTION– Never stand or work beneath a suspended load.
