HOPPER LIFT SAFETY ARM
Each machine is equipped with two Hopper Lift Safety Bar.
They are stored on the Hopper Dump arms, on each side of the
hopper, with two bolts and wing nuts. See Picture 1.
The purpose of the Hopper Lift Safety Bar is to help the hopper
lift cylinders hold the hopper in the up position. The weight of
the hopper can cause the cylinders to retract. Bolt the Hopper
Lift safety bar around the cylinder shaft to prevent the hopper
from slowly lowering due to gravity. See Picture 2.
