3. Assembly
Before starting assembly of your new auger, please read the following instructions carefully and
familiarize yourself with all the sub-assemblies and hardware making up the auger. Ensure that all
parts are on hand, arranging them for easy access as required. Assembly should be carried out in a
large open area with a level surface.
Important
These instructions are written on the assumption that two or more people will be available for
the assembly procedure. Because of the weight, it is unwise to attempt assembly of auger
alone.
