Operation - 10" Backsaver Auger
With the main auger in the fully down position, move
the auger towards the bin or barn. Position the auger
as close as possible to the bin or barn.
Stop the tractor and engage the parking brake. Engage
the tractor’s hydraulics. Run the tractor engine at low
idle.

Using the tractor controls, slowly raise the main auger
to the desired height (do not exceed a 42° angle).
Back the auger into position above the bin. Lower the
auger until the downspout (Item 1) [Figure 131] enters
the bin.
Engage the tractor’s parking brake, stop the engine
and exit the tractor.
Unloading Belly Dump Units
Figure 132
Move the hopper (Item 1) [Figure 132] out at a 90°
angle from the auger.
Move the belly dump unit into position, centered on
the hopper [Figure 132] .
Mark the path of the belly dump unit for future units
to unload and maintain the proper distance from the
auger to allow adequate space for the hopper to be
moved in and out without interference.
Move the hopper mover lever left or right to move the
hopper in towards the auger, away from vehicle
traffic.

Move the belly dump unit straight forward until
centered on the intake auger pivot. Stop the belly
dump unit.
