The section of the EC12 Building Website dealing with ballast cutting for multiple ballast configuration seems to have moved or maybe temporally been dropped for revisions. A search of the group doesn't seem to mention this, and I can't find the instructions in the manual.
I have a "Short Pour" ballast (13", 18.4#s) on the idea that it's possible to make a short ballast act longer; but the reverse is cumbersome. If I remember correctly, I think the old instructions called for about three inches off the rear of the lead and 5/8" from the front.
Could anyone with more experience give an estimate or suggestion of the ballast cuts to be made to yield the most flexible configuration?
