Operation - Backsaver Auger 12112 / 12122
74
Break - In Checklist
NOTE: The Backsaver Auger must have a break-in
period with different operating conditions
than for normal use.
The tube and flighting must get a polished surface
through use. Once the new auger has polished it will run
smooth at recommended speed.
NOTE: Never operate an empty auger for over one
minute, as the flighting and housing will
experience excessive wear.
During the break-in-period:
1.
Run the tractor at slow idle until grain begins to flow
from the discharge. For the first 500 bushels, operate
at the slow speed and restrict the flow of grain at the
intake.
2.
Gradually increase the speed until operating at full
PTO speed.
NOTE: Do not run empty during break-in period.
Check the following mechanical items after 1 hour of
operation and again after 10 hours of operation:
1.
Check the auger hitch for damaged, loose or missing
parts. Repair as needed before operation.
2.
Check for loose fasteners and hardware. Tighten as
required.
3.
Make sure that all guards and shields are in place,
secured and functioning as designed
4.
Check that the PTO driveline telescopes easily and
turns freely.
5.
Check condition of all hydraulic components for leaks.
Tighten fittings to correct leaks or replace
components. Do not operate with hydraulic leaks.
6.
Check tire pressure. Inflate per manufacturer’s
specification.
7.
Check gearbox oil level. Fill as required. (See
“LUBRICATION” on page 105.)
8.
Check the augers. Remove any debris.
