LIGHT KIT ASSEMBLY
The light kit can be assembled while assembling the auger or it can be added
afterwards. The light kit will have to be used in conjunction with the reflective safety
decals in some areas. Check local laws to see if this applies in your area. The
reflectors and instructions for their placement are in the crate of parts. Always use the
light kit when moving the auger on a public roadway.
1.
Pages 42 & 43. The main harness (#1) along with the two lines to the halogen
lamps (#2 & #3) connect to the two switches (#9) mounted in the switch box
welded to the input box. Use a clip (#16) and a 5/16” x ¾” hex bolts, lock washer
and hex nut to fasten the main harness to the side of the valve mount on the
input box. The main harness has a 7 pin round end. An adapter (#10) which
coverts 7 pin round to 7 pin flat is supplied with the light kit. See the wiring
schematic for the proper wiring. Hook-up at the switch.
2.
Bolt one halogen lamp (#8) to the top box on the intake auger as shown in
drawing. Position the lamp so it points at the hopper. Halogen lamps are for
use during auger operation only. Switch them off during transport. The harness
for the intake auger lamp is clamped on with clip (#15) using the top bolt on the
clean out at the top of the intake auger. The other end of the harness connects
to the switch as shown in wiring schematic.
3.
Bolt the second halogen lamp (#8) to the top end plate on the auger. Bolt cable
brackets (#11) to all four sets of pipe rings using the top two bolts on the pipe
ring as shown in drawing. Run the 107-foot wiring harness (#3) from the halogen
lamp at the top down to the switch. Clamp the harness to the cable brackets on
the pipe rings using clips (#15) with 5/16” x ¾” hex bolts, lock washers and hex
nuts. Pull the bottom end of the harness through the cable brackets and lower
bridging stand welded to the bottom auger tube. Connect the bottom end of the
harness to the switch as shown in the wiring schematic. A clip (#15) holds the
harness at the top of the auger using one of the bolts holding on the top end
plate as shown in drawing. Use this lamp for positioning the spout over a bin.
4.
The three lines running to the switch box must be fitted through three straw relief
connectors (#20) mounted in the switch box bottom plate (#14). Assemble the
connectors with accompanying lock nuts (#21) on the three wires before making
the final connections. Bolt the bottom plate to the switch box using 5/16” x ¾”
hex bolts and lock washers. Lock the wires in place using the lock nuts which fit
onto the connectors.
