COMPONENT REPLACEMENT, CONTINUED
Auger motor/Auger continued
Loosen and remove the two ½" bolts holding the auger motor support shelf, then remove the
assembly. You will need a 5/16" socket to remove the two screws that hold the auger motor to
the support shelf (from the back side). Then remove the cotter pin that holds the auger to the
auger motor. To remove the auger from the support shelf, simply slide it out. To reinstall this
assembly, slide the auger in, connect it to the motor using the cotter pin, reinstall the two
5/16" screws through the shelf and motor, and slide the assembly (auger first) back in and
reinstall the two ½" bolts.
Hopper lid latches
To adjust the lid latch, the following tools will be needed: two, ½" wrenches (or a wrench and a
socket). In order to adjust the latch, first open the hopper lid and then lock the latch in its
closed position. Then take the ½" wrench and loosen the nut closest to the latch (see below).
This nut is then adjusted closer to the lid itself to tighten the latch. After adjusting this nut to
the desired location, hold this nut in place with the ½" wrench, then tighten down the holding
nut on the end of the latch shaft with the ½" socket or second wrench, to hold the latching
assembly in place. After tightening the latch, test the latch for proper tension by locking the lid
down and lifting each front corner of the lid. The lid should be firmly held down by the latch.
To replace the latch, remove the 5/16" screw from the bracket, using a socket or wrench.
Remove the latch and replace with a new one, and reinstall the 5/16" screw and bracket.
