LEANER MODEL GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION INTRO Grain Cart Tarp Installation: Generally speaking, tarp installations are similar for all models of J&M Grain Carts. The 1500 Grain Cart does have some differences however compared to the other J&M Grain Carts. In the rest of this manual, the general Grain Cart Tarp Installaion Manual was used and modified to display the correct installation of the Tarp for the 1500 Grain Cart.

LEANER MODEL GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T1.0 Use the Hanger Bracket to mark and drill four 3/8” holes on the rear of the cart as shown above. The 29 3/4” dimension is from the top of the shell, not the top of the sideboard. Attach the hanger bracket to the back wall with four 3/8”-16 x 1” serrated flange hex bolts and four 3/8”-16 serrated flange hex nuts. STEP - T2.
LEANER MODEL GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T3.0 Use a pair of vise grips or extra set of hands to temporarily hold the 2 pieces of drip edge (Detail #4) to the newly flipped out sideboards with the bolt holes lined up. Bolts in a later step will secure the drip edge. (The drip edge should be centered from the front to the rear of the cart.) Make sure that the drip edge is flush to the inside of the sideboard. STEP- T4.0 - 1.
LEANER MODEL GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T5.0 Splice There should be a splice plate already installed on the end cap that is on the 1500 Grain Cart. Place the 4’ Bolt On End Cap (Detail #7-1 and Detail #7-2) over top of this splice, lining up the hole patterns and bolt together using 3/8”-16 x 5/8” serrated flange hex bolts. Insert bolts into the remaining holes. This will need to be done for the front and back 4’ Bolt On End Cap.
STANDARD GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T6.0 Install the Spring Return on the front of the grain cart using ten 1/4”-16 x 3/4” long self tapping bolts on the front of the grain cart. It should be placed as far to the opposite auger side as possible and as high as possible. The pulley wheels should be pointing to the opposite auger side of the grain cart. Try to get the spring return as high up on the wall of the grain cart as possible, while keeping it level.
STANDARD GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T8.0 Slide all *bows under the pre-tensioned ridge cables. Then install two 1/4”-20 x 3/4” serrated flange hex bolts and two 1/4”-20 serrated flange hex nuts on each end of all *bows. Line the bows up with the holes in the sideboards and not the drip edge if the holes are different. If drip edge holes are different, they will need to be drilled. STEP- T9.0 - 1.0 STEP View of all *bows installed under three ridge cables.
STANDARD GRAIN CART TARP INSTALLATION STEP - T10.0 Stiffening Patch Insert the 1”x1” 14ga x 192” long square tube into the sleeve on the Canvas Tarp that is on the opposite side of the Stiffening Patch. Center the canvas tarp on the 1” x 1” 14ga x 192” long square tubing. There should be aproximately 2” (5cm) of tubing sticking out each end of the tarp. Use a 1/4” drill bit to drill through the canvas tarp and one wall of the 1” x 1” 14ga x 192” long square tubing. (See STEP-8.

Use a 3/8” drill bit to drill three holes through the square tubing and auger side wall of the cart. The holes should be approximately 2 1/2” down from the top of the sideboard. Two holes should be placed 14” from the ends of the square tubing and the third hole should be centered on the square tubing.
