OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)

LOADING AND UNLOADING THE GRAIN CART

1) With the gate indicator in the closed position, fill the tank with grain.
2) With the PTO disengaged, fold discharge auger to upright position.
3) IMPORTANT: After the auger is in the upright position, be sure to start the PTO at a SLOW RATE OF
SPEED until the lugs on the upper auger engage the drive dog on the bottom auger (failure to follow this
procedure may cause extensive damage to both the drive dog and drive line.)
4) Increase PTO speed and open the inner gate until the pointer is in the half-way position. When grain begins
flowing from the discharge auger, open gate to the full position.
5) Once the grain has ceased to flow, return the gate to the closed position (for complete cleanout, gradually
close gate, allowing the opening to be reduced). Disengage the PTO and allow its rotation to come to a
complete stop. Auger is now ready to be returned to the stow position. (Important - Do Not Pull the grain cart
through the field with the unloading auger in the upright position. Failure to return the auger to the lowered
position may damage hinge and greatly reduce the life of the auger system.)
