Figure 4.51: Flighting on Right Side of Auger
15. Place flighting (A) outboard of the existing flighting (B)
on the right side of the auger, as shown.
16. Repeat Steps 3, page 51 to 13, page 52 for both
flightings on the right side of the auger.
17. Install flighting slot plugs (MD #213084) in the flighting
mounting locations and secure with M6 bolts
(MD #252703) and tee nuts (MD #197263).
18. Torque all nuts and bolts to 47 Nm (35 lbf·ft) to eliminate
deflection on flighting, then torque nuts and bolts again
to 58
–
64 Nm (43
–
47 lbf·ft).
NOTE:
The flighting should fit tightly against the auger tube;
however, gaps are not uncommon. Crop material may
collect in these gaps, but this should not affect
performance. If desired, use silicone sealant to fill these
gaps.
19. Add or remove auger fingers as necessary to optimize feeding for your combine and crop conditions. Refer to
4.2.10 Installing Feed Auger Fingers, page 54 or 4.2.11 Removing Feed Auger Fingers, page 56 .
20. If not adding or removing auger fingers, reinstall all access covers and secure with bolts. Coat bolts with
medium-strength threadlocker (Loctite
®
243 or equivalent) and torque to 8.5 Nm (75 lbf
∙
in).
