8.1. LIFT CYLINDER HYDRAULICS
The MK 91'/111' auger is elevated with 2, specially designed, single-acting
hydraulic cylinders and cables.The following table lists the psi required to raise
specific auger sizes (as determined by Westfield testing).
These tests used a hydraulic pressure gauge (4000 psi maximum rating) and are
solely intended to be used as a guide. The psi requirements for specific augers
may vary slightly. Should your auger require a significantly higher psi to raise,
contact either your dealer or Westfield Industries.
The approximate quantity of hydraulic fluid required to raise auger is 4 liters.
8.2. HOW TO CHARGE THE LIFT SYSTEM
Important:
The hydraulic cylinders are shipped without oil and must be charged with oil
before auger is put into operation.
The cylinder will require about 19 L (5 US gallons). Check your tractor’s
operation manual for correct oil type and specifications.
Before charging cylinders, ensure that:
• Tractor is correctly hooked up.
• Hydraulic hoses are connected.
• Shut-off valve is open.
• Auger is parked on level ground.
Note:
Do not raise auger in high winds.
1. Start with the tractor's hydraulic oil level in a normal operating range.
2. Add about 4 L (1 US gallon) to the tractor's hydraulic oil reservoir.
3. Start tractor, then raise auger until the lift-assist is fully extended and track
shoe has moved about 1’ from trackstop.
4.
With tractor still running
, lower auger to full down position.
5. Repeat steps 2. 3. and 4. until about 19 L (5 US gallons) have been added
and tractor hydraulic oil level in the reservoir remains within the operating
range.
