STACKING HOPPERS
H-series hoppers are designed to stack on top of
each other. Notches in the base and rim grooves in
specially designed cast feet of one hopper engage the
rim of the hopper supporting it as shown in the diagram
to the right.
Hoppers of identical width can be stacked
together, i.e. H-25 and H-50 series hoppers stack
together. H-100 and H-150 series hoppers also stack
together. Always unload hoppers before stacking them
and NEVER create stacks of more than 3 hoppers. The
bottom hopper must not be equipped with casters.
DO NOT move stacked hoppers! Only move one hopper at a time by properly mounting it
to your forklift as described in Step 1 on p. 11. All hoppers must be empty whenever they are stacked.
RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (THE “RECORD”)
Before using this hopper for the first time, create a record OF its appearance and features. Include
descriptions of the chute, feet, base, carriage chain and quick link, pivot points and pivot point
hardware, and the chute release mechanism. Release the chute. Describe how the unit looks and
sounds as the chute rotates. Also describe the force necessary to release the chute using both the
manual release lever and the cable. Secure the chute to the base and describe how the latch
mechanism works. Thoroughly photograph the unit including all labels. Collate all writings and
photographs into a single file. This file is a record of the unit in satisfactory condition. Compare your
results of all inspections to this record to determine if the unit is still in satisfactory condition. Restore the
hopper to satisfactory condition BEFORE using it again. Cosmetic changes, like damaged surface
coating (paint or powdercoat) are not changes from satisfactory condition. However, touchup paint
should be applied as soon as damage occurs to prevent rusting.
INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE
Inspections and repairs should only be performed by qualified persons. Compare the results of each
inspection to the RECORD OF SATISFACTORY CONDITION (the “RECORD”). Do not use the hopper unless
all parts are in satisfactory condition. Replace parts that are not in satisfactory condition before using
the hopper again. DON’T GUESS! If you have any questions about the condition of your hopper, speak
with TECHNICAL SERVICE personnel. The phone number is provided on the cover page of this manual.
Never make temporary repairs of damaged or missing parts. Only use manufacturer-approved
replacement parts.
Make a dated record of each inspection that includes observations and descriptions of repairs
and/or replacements installed.
1) Pivot points: Look for excessive wear, warps, damage to pivot pins, cotter pins, or pin receivers.
2) Hopper chute and base frame: Examine the structure for damage, deformations, and corroded or
excessively rusted areas.
3) Hardware (bolts, nuts, pins, cotter pins, retaining rings): inspect hardware for looseness and severe
wear. Tighten loose connections and replace all damaged hardware.
4) Casters (if hopper is equipped with caster kit): check for looseness, excessive wear, or damage to the
casters, caster bearings, mounting brackets, and hardware.
5) Release mechanism: Torsion spring should cause the latch lever to automatically recoil. The lever
should firmly engage the release lock bar. Check the cable for frayed, thinned, or bird-caged regions.
Replacement kit 37-154-044 (see p. 2) includes a handle, cable, and 2 wire clamps (1/4”). To install a
replacement handle & cable kit, loosen the nuts of both wire clamps & feed the free end of the cable
through the clamps. Insert the end of the cable through the hole in the manual chute release lever. See
p. 11. Feed the cable back through the clamps & then tighten all 4 nuts.
6) Moving parts: listen for unusual noises and watch for irregular movement. Remove dirt and debris
from areas that could affect the hopper’s dumping motion.
7) Carriage chain: examine the carriage chain, its point of attachment to the base frame, and the
quick links for damage.
8) Labels: all labels must be firmly affixed in the locations shown in the LABELING DIAGRAM on p. 13.
