Abstract: The invention provides a method for exchanging a plurality of sifter frames of a plan sifter. The steps of the method include a step, when taking out a number of sifter frames from a sifting chamber, of taking out a plurality of sifter frames in a unitary state with the unitary state being maintained to the outside of the machine frame, and a step, when accommodating new sifter frames in the sifting chamber, of stacking the sifter frames outside the machine frame and accommodating the unitary formed sifter frames in the sifting chamber. According to the method of the invention, the sifter frame exchange operation can be carried out in such a way as to reduce heavy labor and risk to workers, and such exchanging operation can be carried out in an easy manner.
