2. Remove feed adapter. Remove four (4)
hex nuts and clamp screws. Lift adapter

CAUTION: The impeller hex nut
is self-locking using a plastic insert. It
will deform with use and the locking
effect will be lost. If the nut can be
turned with finger pressure, it must be
replaced. The loss of this nut due to
insufficient tightening or from vibra-
tion while machine is running can
result in damage to the machine.
