3. Assembly
Before beginning assembly, familiarize yourself with all the sub-assemblies and
hardware making up the auger. Have all parts on hand and arrange them for
easy access. Carry out assembly in a large open area with a level surface.
Important:
Always have 2 or more people assembling the equipment. Because of the
weight, do not attempt assembly alone.
Augers are available in various combinations. In most cases, the following
instructions will apply to all augers. Where the assembly information varies,
additional instructions will be included and will be indicated with an arrow.
Note:
Non-driveline options such as the hydraulic winch and hydraulic/electric power
swing are compatible with all other options that can be installed on the auger.
Driveline options (Right angle Drive, 540 RPM PTO Reverser) are not compatible
with other driveline options, but are compatible with non-driveline options such
as the hydraulic winch and hydraulic/electric power swing.
