Harvest International thanks you for your purchase of the best quality auger on the market. We are proud to have you on our team. Our equipment is manufactured in the United States of America and is made to improve your farming operation.
Keep this manual handy for frequent reference and to pass on to new operators or owners. Call your Harvest International distributor or dealer if you need assistance, information, or additional copies of the manual.
2. Safety First Safety is a priority in your everyday work habit, especially if you work with machinery. Whether you are an owner, an operator, or an employee, it is your responsibility to know the operational requirements and safety precautions of the machinery.
Failure to do this could cause damage to the auger, and serious injury or death. All Harvest International augers have minimum clearance positions when in transport mode. Place auger in full down position.
3.2 Transportation Procedure Move auger with a tractor only. Never attempt to move by hand. Under no condition should you allow riders on the auger or tractor. Transport the auger no faster than 15 mph. When roads are rough or surfaces are uneven, slow down to ensure safe travel.

WARNING: Never position raisers of any kind under the wheels of the auger to increase height. This includes pieces of wood, cement blocks, bricks, etc. Attempting this could result in damage to the equipment and personal injury or death. Make sure that the hitch is secured to the tractor, and that all hydraulic connections are tight and in good working condition.
3.4 Final Placement of Auger When you are ready to use your auger, place the auger in its lowered position, and slowly back it up to your bin or storage facility, keeping an eye out for any people or obstructions in the hazard zone. DANGER: Avoid any electrical wires and overhead obstructions.
4. Operation Wear protective gear at all times when operating auger, such as hard hats, protective shoes, eye protection, and gloves. Do not wear loose clothing, and be sure that hair is tied back. 4.1 Pre-Operation Checklist Before operating the auger, the operator must follow this checklist: All safety shields are in place, secure, and in good working order.
4.2 Auger Drive & Lockout The proper operation of this auger requires that the operator pre-inspect the drive system, know how to shut down the system in an emergency, and generally monitor the system during operation. Drive System and PTO Driveline: Ensure that the PTO drive on the tractor is in the off...
Gradually begin to feed grain into the intake hopper, bringing the speed of the PTO to 200 RPM. Do not over-feed the hopper on initial loads; keep the feed of the grain at half capacity. After the auger tube is polished and runs smoothly, proceed to unload at full speed (at but not to exceed 540 RPM for maximum efficiency).
4.5 Shutting Down the Auger Empty the auger of all grain. Disengage the PTO drive. Shut down and lock out power. WARNING: Never use your hands to clean out debris from auger. Rather, use a small shovel or other tool. In the case where there has been an interruption or emergency shutdown, restart the auger as follows: If auger is full of grain, do not restart at full speed.
Escaping hydraulic fluid can be nearly invisible under high pressure. Use some type of backdrop when searching for leaks. Harvest International augers have a velocity fuse for hydraulic safety. If the hydraulic line breaks, it locks the system. Our shut off valve is equipped with a...
Relieve all pressure and then disconnect. 5.2 Cylinder Hydraulics The testing done on Harvest International auger hydraulics was done using a pressure gauge with 3000psi maximum rating. This was used simply as a guide. The psi requirements for an individual auger may vary slightly.
Always replace damaged or worn parts before using the auger. Use only replacement parts manufactured by Harvest International, Inc. Use of unauthorized parts will void the warranty of your auger. Contact your Harvest International dealer to order parts. Harvest International augers are designed and tested for a safe, efficient operation.

After Maintenance is completed, replace and secure all safety shields, safety devices, service doors and cleanout covers. See section 5, “Hydraulics” for information on maintenance of hydraulic hoses. See section 7, “Appendix & Forms” for expanded lube information. Truss Cables: Replace cables if frayed or damaged. Be sure clamps are secure. Adjust cables as needed to keep the auger tube reasonably straight.
6.2 Storage of Auger Make sure that auger is in the full down position. Remove all residual material from the hopper and auger tubes. Touch up all scratches on the auger to prevent rusting. Clean and re-lubricate spline on the PTO driveline. Cover with plastic bag to protect from weather, and place it in the transport latch.
