Abstract

A screen tie-down for a vibratory separator has a pedestal with a base plate and a post. The post has internal right hand threads for engaging the screen center support stud, and external left hand threads. A jam nut is threaded onto the support stud against the top end of the post. A cap having internal threads is turned onto the external threads of the post. All adjustments to the pedestal height can be made from above the screen and the tie-down cannot be overtightened.
