section of this manual.
10.Pull the auger at the boot end until it begins
stretching. Then let it relax. In the relaxed position,
mark the auger at the end of the boot. See Figure
11.
11.Auger stretch:
The auger needs to be stretched 7" [180 mm] per
100' [30 m]. Example: A 300' [90 m] feeder line
requires 21" [500 mm] of stretch.
Beginning at the relaxed position, measure the
required amount of stretch. Mark the auger at that
point.
Grip the auger 8" [200 mm] ahead of this mark with locking pliers. Allow the auger to pull back into the boot
so that the pliers rest against the end of the boot. (See Figure 70.).
Use a hacksaw or bolt cutters to cut the auger at the stretched auger mark.
