Straight-Through Tandem Boot
The Straight-Through Tandem Boots allow one or two augers to remove feed from two separate feed bins. Feed
should only be drawn from one bin at a time.
Solid Cannonballs are used in conjunction with the Boot Baffles.
1.Install boots on both feed bins. Be sure the outlets and inlets on the boots are in line and arrow tape is pointed
in direction of feed flow. Figure 27 shows a typical Straight-Through Tandem System.
2.Measure and cut an auger tube(s) to connect the two boots (See Figure 29).
For Model 90 & HMC FLEX-AUGER systems, the belled end of the auger tube fits directly over the outlet
end the Straight-Out Boot. The straight end of the Auger Tube connects to the incoming end of the Straight-
Thru Boot, using a Tube Connector. (See Figure 29)
For Model 75 FLEX-AUGER (PVC) systems, slide the belled end of the Model 75 Auger Tube over the
outlet of the Straight-Out Boot. The straight end of the Auger Tube connects to the incoming end of the
Straight-Thru Boot, using a Tube Insert and Tube Connector.
For Model 75 FLEX-AUGER (Steel) systems, slide the straight end of the Model 75 Auger Tube into the
outlet end of the Straight-Out Boot. The belled end of the Auger Tube should be slid over the inlet end of the
Straight-Thru Boot. (See Figure 29).
Remember to caulk all tube joints exposed to weather or moisture.
