How the System Works
OVERVIEW: Cellulose, Fiberglass, or Stone Wool insulation is loaded into the hopper. The agitation
system is the first step in processing the insulation while moving towards the airlock column. Once in
the column, insulation is processed additionally by the shredder bar. It then moves through the slide
gate and into the airlock where the insulation is fed into the airstream created by the blower system.
Insulation is discharged from the airlock, through the machine outlet, and into the hose. The insulation
is further conditioned as it travels through the hose.
An introduction to key components of the system follows:
Electrical Panel: The electrical panel, combined with the wireless and/or wired remote, provides
operation of the machine.
Loading Platform: The loading platform acts as a shelf to support the bag of insulation being loaded
into the hopper.
Hopper: The hopper contains the insulation being fed into the agitators.

Engine & Blower Fresh Air Inlet Kits: To ensure long life of your system’s VANGUARD motor and
Positive Displacement Blower, Intec has designed Inlet Fresh Air Kits for each.
Inlet Hose provides cool clean air from outside the truck / trailer to ensure that your VANGUARD
engine is appropriately cooled. The clean air from outside also prevents fibrous particles from being
pulled into your engine’s cooling fins. Utilize Intec’s Air Inlet mounting plates to attach the hose
coming from machine to fresh air.
NOTE: Never run engine w/out the air inlet hose attached. Doing so will draw insulation into your
engine’s cooling fins which will drastically reduce the life of your engine.

Blower By-Pass Valve: Allows the installer to decrease the amount of air being pushed down the hose
by opening the valve to vent the blower. Used most often for special wall fill capability.
Shredder Bars: The shredder bars are located just above the airlock and spin quickly to provide final
insulation processing. They are not visible.
Slide Gate: The slide gate allows insulation to fall into the airlock. The slide gate is opened fully during
typical operation. Close the gate slightly to increase the conditioning of the insulation and alter ratio of
insulation to airflow.
Gate Pin Setting: Place the pin into the desired slide gate hole to ensure the gate stays in desired
position during operation.
Airlock: The airlock transfers the insulation from the agitation system into the airstream without
coming into contact with the blowers. Insulation is discharged from the airlock into the hose.
Urethane Airlock Seals: Your FORCE 5250 includes Intec’s proprietary urethane airlock
seals for long lasting effectiveness. Proper airlock sealing allows for high production
rates and high pressures for effective wall fill applications.

Set up and Operation
SYSTEM SET-UP:
INITIAL OPERATION
During initial operation, install the Fresh Air Inlet Kit for the VANGUARD Engine and Blower.
a. Cut a 8” diameter hole into the side wall or floor of your truck / trailer. NOTE: be sure to
cut in a non-load bearing area.
b. Mount the Outside Plate (on the outside of the truck) and Inside Plate (on the inside of the
truck) –sandwiching the wall or floor -- with four nuts.
c. Hose Ring: The Hose Ring will mount to the Inside Plate.

The FORCE 5250’s agitation system is built strong to last. Using an
advanced design for rugged durability and superior product
conditioning. This design allows product to go through multiple stages
of conditioning prior to installation.
Main Agitator- fluted section allows for maximum mobility and
break-up of product.
Fluted section transitions to breaker bar section where rapid cycling
begins to transition product into smaller pieces.
Shredder Bars continue to pulverize product to proper conditioning.
