PNEG-1521 Commercial Direct Gear Drive Bin Sweep Auger
C. Use the ¾” Wrench on the Rack and Pinion and open the Centerwell Control Gate until the desired
flow has been established. It should not be necessary to open the Gate more than 3" to 6". DO NOT
open the Gate more than 3" to 6", as the flow of grain into the Centerwell will be at a higher rate than
what the unload system can remove. This will cause the auger to plug or “jam.”
D. Always close the Centerwell Control Gate and allow the Unload Auger to clean out before stopping the
Unload Auger.
E. When the grain flow stops from the Centerwell, close the Centerwell Gate. Insert the Inside
Intermediate Well Bolt and Nut through the Inside Intermediate Well Control Rod and the Centerwell
Control Rod. The remaining grain should look like Figure 16-B.
F. Gradually open the Centerwell and Inside Intermediate Wells until the desired flow has been
established. You should not have to open the gate more than 2" to 4". DO NOT open the Gates more
than 2" to 4", as the flow of grain into the Inside Intermediate Wells and occasional grain flow into the
Centerwell will be at a higher rate than what the unload system can remove. This will cause the
auger to plug or “jam.”
G. Always close the Well Gates and allow the Unload Auger to clean out before stopping the Unload
Auger.
H. When the grain flow stops from the Centerwell and Inside Intermediate Wells, insert the Outside
Intermediate Well Bolt and Nut through the Outside Intermediate Well Control Rod and the Outside
Intermediate Well Adapter. The remaining grain should look like Figure 16-C.
I. Gradually open the Outside Intermediate Wells until the desired flow has been established. You should
not have to open the gate more than 2" to 4". DO NOT open the Gates more than 2" to 4", as the flow
of grain into the Outside Intermediate Wells and occasional grain flow into the Centerwell and Inside
Intermediate Wells will be at a higher rate than what the unload system can remove. This will cause
the auger to plug or “jam.”
J. Always close all of the Well Gates and allow the Unload Auger to clean out before stopping the Unload
Auger.
16. NORMAL OPERATION
(Cont.)
NEVER Unload the Bin from the Outside Intermediate Wells before
unloading the grain from the Centerwell and Inside Intermediate Wells
FIRST. This situation could result in structural damage to the Grain Bin.
