4.2. Intended Floor Types
The unload system may be installed as part of a:
• full floor aeration system
• concrete form with an aeration pit
• trench in a full concrete foundation
The instructions in this manual are written for full floor aeration systems, however any type may be safely used
noting the additional requirements below.
Concrete Form with an Aeration Pit
Install the tandem gearboxes in the center sump before positioning the underfloor auger in the trench to
prevent clearance problems.
Connect the bin adapter pieces to the concrete form wall using eleven 1/4" x 1-1/4" self-tapping
concrete
screws (purchased separately).
Trench in a Full Concrete Foundation
The concrete floor must meet the dimensions in the figure below.
