11. Pull up on the hopper snap pin and pivot the auger
hopper until its opening is facing up, and the snap
pin is captured in a locking hole.
12. Swing the auger so the spout is centered over the
hopper opening. Position your grain container for
unloading into the auger hopper.
13. Energize tractor hydraulics for auger. You may need
to tie the control lever in place or adjust the detent

one-third and the lower cone one-third.
16. When hopper is full, turn off the auger by moving the
auger direction control to the center position.
17. Briefly run auger in reverse to return any residual
material to the inlet hopper for recovery or disposal.
