Note:
The angle drive on the standard intake hopper requires a break-in period of at
least 2 or 3 loads of grain.
1. Ensure auger is properly placed and complete the pre-operational checklist.
If everything is satisfactory, prepare for one hour of operation at half speed.
2. Ensure that the intake hopper is correctly positioned.
3. Ensure that the PTO drive on the tractor is in the OFF position.
Important:
When starting auger for the first time, be prepared for an emergency shutdown in
case of excessive vibration or noise. Auger may run rough until tube is polished.
4. Start tractor and idle at low rpm. Slowly engage PTO drive and hydraulics (on
units with hydraulic drive hoppers).
5. Gradually
begin
feeding grain into hopper, bringing auger speed up to about
300 rpm. Do not overfeed the hopper on initial loads; keep feed of grain at
about half capacity.
6. After auger tube is polished and runs fairly smoothly, proceed to unload at full
speed of 540 rpm.
7. After initial run, slow auger down until empty of grain and then stop.
8. Lock out tractor and conduct a complete inspection of auger following the
pre-operational checklist.
