Stay clear of auger whenever it is running
5.1. FIELD SETTING THE CROSS AUGER
FIGURE 25 SAUER MOTOR SPEED CONTROL
Cross augers can only be adjusted for speed
of rotation. In many conditions, the correct
speed for many crops would be to have the
flighting advancing the crop along the canvas
5% or slightly faster than the canvas speed.
To increase auger speed, loosen lock wheel
A counterclockwise, rotate adjust valve C
clockwise, relock the valve by turning A
clockwise. Closing this valve reduces the
bypass of oil around the hydraulic motor. To
slow down the rpm of the auger, rotate adjust
valve D counterclockwise.
Observe the auger from the combine cab or
Swather operating platform. Focus your eye
on one auger flighting and compare to a
canvas slat. The auger can be adjusted to
run at the same rate in feet per minute. As
desired, slightly increase the cross auger to
have it pulling ahead faster than the canvas.
In peas, augers can often be operated at a
very slow speed--- 30% of canvas speed, and
still feed as much crop into combine. When
augers
turn
slower,
there
are
fewer
tendencies to wrap.
If wrapping occurs at the center of the
header, try removing one or both bolts on
paddles
– In some conditions the paddles are
an advantage, in some conditions the
paddles are a disadvantage.
