Auger Inlet Orientation
During material loading and unloading, a snap pin may
be used to keep the auger inlet hopper upright.
Auger Inner Arm Pin
The auger may also be used to collect material being
unloaded from the hoppers, from beneath the meters
(see “Unloading the Cart” on page 34).
Refer to Figure 18
To allow the inlet to reach under the cart, remove a pin
securing the inner swing arm to the cart frame.
Machine Damage Risk:
Be aware of the location of the outlet end of the auger during
positioning. In addition to overhead line hazards, if a trailing
implement is folded, the auger can strike it during positioning,
with possible damage to the auger or implement.
Storing Auger
The auger inlet hopper may be oriented as desired when
stowed, based on road and weather conditions.
1. Orient hopper.
If storing for transport, orient the inlet hopper up and
toward cart center. This protects the auger from
damage from movement of the trailing implement on
uneven terrain, and minimizes collection of debris
thrown by the tire.
If securing the auger for cart storage, orient the inlet
hopper out and down. This minimizes collection of
airborne debris and precipitation. See also
“Storage” on page 37.
2. Fold arm with center pivot forward.
3. Push auger to cradles.
4. Seat auger in cradles.
5. Pin inner arm (if unpinned).
6. Secure rear latch.
Auger Swing Arm
The auger arm may be completely unfolded to straight
out, or folded, with the middle pivot pointing to cart front
or back, as needed, to meet your loading or unloading
requirements.
