The power source for the auger is a standard 540 RPM tractor PTO (see Figure
1.1). An optional Right-Angle PT
O Drive kit allows the auger to be powered by a
tractor positioned at a 90 degree angle to the auger (Figure 1.2).

An optional 1000 RPM PTO Drive kit provides a speed reducer that allows use
with 1000 RPM PTO tractors, as well as reverser capability that is used to rotate
the auger flightings in the reverse direction (transferring grain in the auger tube
back to the hopper).

An optional 540 RPM Reverser kit provides a similar reverser capability for

540 RPM PTO connections.
