:
1. If cleanout covers or safety doors have been opened or removed, close or
replace them before restarting the unit.
2. If the auger is shut down for an emergency, lock out tractor before correcting
the problem.
• If the problem is plugging, clear as much of the grain as possible using a
piece of wood, wet/dry vac, or other tool before restarting auger.
Do not
reach in and use your hands
even if the tractor has been locked out.
3. If auger tube is full of grain, do not restart at full speed. Engage PTO at low
rpm, gradually increasing power until normal operating speed is reached.
USE OF GRAIN SPREADERS
: Many grain spreaders cannot handle the large
capacity of some augers. Some augers plug, causing damage to the flighting
and other drive components. This type of damage is not covered by warranty.
Hints on how to avoid this...
• Get a larger spreader, if available.
• Remove the spreader.
• Make sure spreader is turned on.
• Center auger spout on spreader.
• Do not lower auger spout into spreader.
• Suspend the spreader from bin ceiling leaving extra room for excess
grain to flow over the spreader.
BIN LEVEL INDICATORS
: These augers are fast and bins fill up quickly. A full
bin will cause auger to plug, which can damage the flighting and other drive
components. Installing quality grain-level indicators on your bins will allow you
to monitor bin filling and help prevent damage to your auger.
NOTICE
Starting the auger when there is grain blockage will result in
damage.
