TrueBlend Structure and Function
Edition: February 2008 39
5.3.1 For four component blenders
Based on the blender size, the volume of the blender material hopper can vary.
On smaller blenders, material hoppers can be removable after unlocking the
retainer mechanism used for securing the hopper. This is true with all positions
on the TB45 series and color/additive positions (3&4) on the TB100 series. See
