5-9  Stroke Limiters for Metering Gates 
 
Stroke limiters are supplied on components 1 through 4 with all SGB blenders to 
allow standard metering gates to meter small amounts of low percentage additive 
materials.  
 
Generally, the stroke limiter (Item 30) is not required on major ingredients (usually 
number 1 and 3) and should be removed.  If they are left in place, throughput of 
the blender will be reduced. 
 
To install the stroke limiter, drop it into the double slot on top of the gate assembly 
and secure it in place with the socket head screw that is provided.   Be sure to use 
the lock washer to prevent the stroke limiter from coming loose.
