Auger Flighting
The auger flighting on the FM200 can be configured for particular harvesting and crop conditions.
For instructions, refer to
3.8.1 FM200 Feed Auger Configurations, page 84
for combine/crop specific configurations.
4.7.7
Auger Fingers
The FM200 auger uses retracting tines to feed the crop into the combine feeder house. Some conditions may require the
removal or installation of fingers for optimal crop feeding. Replace any worn or damaged fingers.
Removing Feed Auger Fingers
The feed auger has fingers that extend and retract to pull crop into the feeder house on the combine. Fingers may need to
be removed from the auger drum to change its configuration profile.
DANGER
To prevent bodily injury or death from the unexpected start-up of the machine, always stop the engine and remove the
key from the ignition before making adjustments to the machine.
WARNING
Ensure that all bystanders have cleared the area.
