[Gristmillers] meadows meal sifter

OK guys,

I just picked up a Meadows drum style meal sifter and need a little help.

I believe it was made in 1968, 'cause the serial number ends in "-68" and
the second one I picked up for parts is obviously newer and is tagged"-77".

 

So, I checked the Meadows website without much help, and I'm not patient
enough to wait until Monday, so I wonder if anyone can help.

 

The basic function I understand, however, there is one part I cannot figure
out how to put back on.  On one end of the drum, each horizontal runner 

In the drum has a short piece of wood on the outside of the screen with a
notch cut in it.  Laying inside is a wooden piece of wood with a metal frame
and a spring, as well as a bolt going through one end.  This obviously rides
inside the notches to give it a whack as it's going around to assist in the
screening process.

But I'll be dogged if I can figure out where this thing was mounted inside
the  box.

Can anyone help so I don't have to look at this thing all weekend without
getting to work on it?

Thanks

If you want to try to 'splain it to me over the phone, email me and I'll
shoot you my phone #.
