MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
6.7 Auger
The CA25 Combine Adapter auger feeds the cut crop from the draper decks into the combine feeder house.
6.7.1 Adjusting Auger to Pan Clearance
IMPORTANT:
It is important that these clearances are maintained. Too little clearance may result in the tines or flighting
contacting and damaging the draper or feed pan under certain orientations of the header. Look for evidence
of contact when greasing the adapter.
To adjust the auger pan clearance, follow these steps:
1. Extend center-link to maximum for steepest header
angle, and position the header 6–10 in. (150–254 mm)
off the ground.
2. Shut down combine and remove key from ignition.
3. Check that float lock linkage is on downstops (washer
(A) and nut (B) cannot be moved) at both locations.

4. Check that linkage bars (A) are against studs (B) at
lower end of bars at both ends of the auger.
