  • Page 11: Operation

    8” & 10” Unloading Auger OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS When operating an auger for the first time when new, or at the beginning of a season, run only partially full until flighting becomes polished. Also check the spout and hopper for bird nests or other obstructions before starting the auger. The set screws in the universal joint joining the hopper and tube flighting must be checked regularly and tightened if necessary.
  • Page 12: Theory Of Operation

    8” & 10” Unloading Auger THEORY OF OPERATION MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE Lubricate the universal joint about every five hours and check to see that the set screws in the universal joint are tight. Clean the auger thoroughly after using as dirt draws moisture and causes metal to rust. Store in a dry place if possible.
