EX2: A
new
Sukup 6-ring, 42' farm bin (265" eve
height) will have a FASTIR Plus Triple
installed during bin assembly. An 8" Sukup
powered sweep will be installed on a floor with
13.25" floor supports.

- Down Auger Preparation
94 Mark appropriate position on auger for cut.
95 Weld or braze flighting slightly above point
of cut to prevent unraveling.
96 Cut down augers to length.
96.1
Note
: Down augers should always be cut
from bottom.
96.2
Note
: In some cases, down augers may be
cut after installation on machine.
97 Bolt flinger to auger just above auger flighting
using 5/16” x 1-3/4” U-Bolt and 5/16” nuts and
98 Slide the following items over top of each auger
shaft in the order below:
Flange bearing (hub up)
Locking collar for bearing (groove down)
Flange bearing (hub up)
Locking collar for bearing (groove down)
98.1
Note:
If parts will not slide smoothly over
shaft, use emery cloth or file to clean shaft.

- Down Auger Assembly
99 Attach 9” pulley to top of auger shaft by
inserting 5/16” rollpin in hole provided on shaft.
100 Slide top locking collar and top flange bearing
up against pulley.
101 Position a punch in unused hole on locking
collar and
lightly tap
with hammer in direction
of shaft rotation to lock flange bearing in place.
101.1
Note:
Do not overtighten collar
–
bearing race will crack.
102 Tighten set screw on top locking collar using
hex (Allen) wrench.

Installing Down Augers
For part numbers and descriptions of parts
referenced in this section, see parts assembly
manual, page 53.
103 Slide auger up through slot in carriage so top
bearing rests on two pre-installed 7/16” x 1-1/2”
bolts, which point up through top of carriage plate
and are secured with push nuts.
104 Add 7/16” lockwashers and nuts to pre-
installed bolts to bolt top bearing to carriage.
Tighten using 11/16” wrench.
