Auger Hydraulic Controls
Operating the auger involves one or two valves on the
cart, and the tractor lever for the hydraulic circuit.
▲ Read instructions and safety information before operation.
▲ Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from rotating
auger.
▲ Do not remove or modify any guards.
▲ Keep children well clear of work area.
Diverter Valve
Refer to Figure 37
This valve is located at the front right corner of the front
bulk hopper. It selects between
auger and markers (ADC2350/E cart) or
auger and fan (ADC2350B/BE cart).
Do not operate the diverter valve with the hydraulic circuit
energized. Unexpected auger, fan or drill movements can
result.
Do not use this valve as the Start-Stop control for the auger.
Operate the valve with the tractor hydraulic circuit off, or
set to neutral or float. The handle has two positions.
