Sieve Replacement (TBB)


1 of 3

Ensure that all trays are inserted in the sieve frames before beginning the sieve
replacement procedure.

The sieves should be placed in the box against the ribs with the number of the
sieve facing the door.

c Install the bottom (highest numbered) sieve first.

c Stack the remaining sieves in the box with the numbers from highest to lowest.

Photo 2: Door Bar Clamp and Door Tail Nut

c Turn the door bar clamps at a right angle to the door and
hand-tighten the door tail nuts to help snug the door into
position. Go around the door several times hand-
tightening the door tail nuts evenly.

Pneumatic Clamping System

c Turn the Pneumatic Control Key to the clamped position.

c Replace the door rod (if applicable).

Only tighten the door rod nut tight enough to begin closing the gaps between the
door frames and openings. Do not overtighten as this will distort the frame and
potentially damage the frame posts.

Rack and Pinion Clamping System

c Turn the press-top shafts counterclockwise to lower the rack and pinion press-top assembly and compress
the sieve stack. It is recommended that the press-top assembly be tightened to 25 ft-lbf and/or until the sieve
stack is securely compressed.

Do not tighten one side of the rack and pinion press-top system all of the way;
tighten one side part way and then the other side, or both sides simultaneously.
This action prevents the rack and pinion press-top assembly from binding.

Use a 1/2” female, press-top ratchet wrench to operate the mechanisms. Do not
use slip joint pliers or an adjustable wrench.

If clamping issues exist, see the appropriate (Pneumatic Clamping or Rack and Pinion Clamping) section of
this manual for detailed instructions.
