4.1. TRANSPORT
1. When moving the Transfer Auger from location to location, place the unit on
a transport vehicle and tie down securely. DO NOT tow behind a vehicle.
4.2. PLACEMENT
When placing the auger, follow these guidelines:
• Ensure there is enough clearance from other equipment to move the machine
into its working position.
• Move the machine under the truck or storage facility.
• Place the auger on a firm, level surface.
• Chock the wheels before augering any products.
Note:
The machine is almost evenly balanced. Pushing down a little on the discharge
end will raise the intake end off the ground and allow easy maneuvering.
Warning: Before continuing, ensure you have read and understand the relevant information
in the safety section. Safety information is provided to help prevent serious injury, death, or
property damage.
NOTICE
DO NOT tow transfer auger behind a vehicle. Tires are not
rated for road use.
