The auger flighting on the FM100 can be configured for specific combines and crop conditions. Refer to
Module Feed Auger Configurations, page 307

5.7.7 Auger Fingers

The FM100 auger uses retracting tines to feed the crop into the combine feeder house. Some conditions may
require the removal or installation of fingers for optimal crop feeding. Replace any worn or damaged fingers.
IMPORTANT:
Only install hollow fingers in a FM100. The use of solid fingers will cause severe damage to the machine.
