  • Page 29 Shear Bolts Shear bolts are built to break under shock loads on the fan or auger. However under certain circumstances this security is not adequate. Example: a sudden high impact shock on the fan may, in some cases break the fan shaft without breaking the shear bolt. If the shear bolt breaks, make sure to always replace it with the same grade of bolt (grade 5 for PTO series 20-40-50-60, and grade 8 for PTO series 80) it is necessary to always maintain this bolt very tight in order to keep the efficiency of the shearing mechanism.
