TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
PROBLEM
REASON
SOLUTION
1. Sweep is not moving around bin. Scraper too close to floor.
Raise scrapers up.
Bent edge is down by floor.
Turn scraper around so sharp
edge is at bottom.
Obstacles may be hindering
forward movement.
Check for any obstacles that
scraper could be catching on.
May need to raise scraper.
2. Sweep is not filling unload auger
to capacity.
Sweep is not going fast enough. Increase 10” sweep auger capacity
10% by increasing size of
lower
gearbox 18-tooth sprocket to a 20-
tooth sprocket, (Kit E7987).
Increase 8” sweep auger capacity
20% by increasing size of
lower
gearbox 12-tooth sprocket to a 15-
tooth sprocket, (Kit E7986).
Increase 10” sweep auger capacity
by increasing size of
lower
gearbox 18-tooth sprocket to a 24-
tooth sprocket, (Part #J16957).
May have to lengthen chain with
24-tooth sprocket. It will increase
speed by 30%.
3. Drive chain breaking.
(8" & 10” Sweepway)
Grain piling in center of bin.
Make sure center sump gate is
fully open.
4. When using an incline auger,
capacity is cut dramatically.
Moving very small grains or hard
flowing grains. Example: rice,
wheat, soybeans, etc.
Weld a piece of flighting, (6-8"
incline use Part #E5638, 8-10"
incline use Part #E5639) onto end
of unload auger to get flighting
extended fully to U-joint. This will
decrease amount of gap grain has
to flow through, increasing
capacity.
5. Connector link coming off.
Connector link is on backwards. Connector link clip needs to have
closed end leading chain around.
LUBRICATION
Use 140-weight gear oil in gearboxes. Gearboxes should be checked every time bin is empty. Check
plugs are on back of gearboxes. Gearboxes should be about half full. Add grease to top bearing through
zerk on top of each sump gearbox. On single-motor vertical drive, add oil through fill plug. Grease roller
chain in sump every time bin is empty. Factory oil used in gearboxes is Mobil Gear 636, 140-weight.
