Auger Installation

Note: Use extreme caution when working with the auger. The auger is under tension and may spring
causing personal injury. Wear protective clothing, gloves, and safety glasses when working with
the auger.
To avoid kinking the auger, be careful not to drop the rolled auger when handling. Inspect the auger carefully as
it is installed. Small kinks may be straightened. Large kinks must be removed and the auger brazed back together.
Cut the leading 18" [450 mm] and last 18" [450 mm] off each roll of auger. Also, cut out any other distorted auger
sections and reconnect the auger as specified in the Auger Brazing section of this manual.
