To Operate in the Reverse Mode:
1. Insert the stub spline on the PTO driveline into the Reverse spline coupler
(see and Figure 6.6), making certain it is securely locked into place.
2. Remove clean out cover before operating in reverse mode.
3. Operate auger slowly in reverse for a short period of time. Do not exceed
100 RPM
.
4. When boot is nearly full, shut off and lock out power, then clean out grain from
boot using a stick. Do not use hands. Repeat above procedure as needed.
Important:
Reversing is intended to assist in clean out of auger. It is not designed to
unplug auger
. When operating in the reverse mode, auger must be monitored to
prevent boot from overfilling. Excessive back pressure will cause extensive
damage to the auger which is not covered by warranty.
Note:
For transport or placement of auger, hook up auger to tractor with appropriate
hitch pin and safety chain, and connect hydraulic lift hose as per manual instruc-
tions.
