Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure monthly. The recommended tire
pressure should be maintained at 40 to 45 psi.
PTO Driveline: Lubricate both universal joints after every eight hours of
operation. Lubricate the center portion of the driveline on a yearly basis.
The first lube maintenance should be done in the first 16 to 24 hours of
operation. Then follow a regular schedule of lubing.
Lube Recommendation: Lube cross and bearing every 8 hours of use.
Lube telescoping members yearly.
NOTICE:
Replacement parts are not lubricated. When you receive these parts in,
make sure to lubricate and tighten screws.
Mechanical Chain Drive: Keep drive chain tension adjusted to about ¼”
deflection by loosening the four bolts on the lower bearing, then
retightening. Oil the chain frequently enough to keep a film of oil on the
chain. This must be done through the maintenance portal. Replace shield
after maintenance.
Universal Joint: Remove PTO guard cover and lubricate grease fitting in
the U-Joint every eight hours of use. Check PTO retain bolt and retighten
if necessary.
6.2 Storage of Auger
Make sure that auger is in the full down position. Remove all residual
material from the hopper and auger tubes. Touch up all scratches on the
auger to prevent rusting.
Clean and re-lubricate spline on the PTO driveline. Cover with plastic
bag to protect from weather, and place it in the transport latch.
Move auger to your storage area, park, and chock wheels.
Before using the auger after storage, replace any damaged parts or
decals, remove plastic bag from PTO driveline and re-lubricate, and
conduct general maintenance procedure.
