The back (inlet) end of the auger has grasp handles.
When empty of material this end of the auger also tends
to be heavier. Start unlatching at the front end.

Set either interconnected auger hydraulic motor
direction control handle
to OFF (the center of han-
dle travel). This prevents unexpected auger opera-
tion when the circuit is selected and energized.
4. Pull the auger tube swivel pin forward.
5. Rotate the top of the auger tube outward, so that the
auger outlet faces down.
6. If deploying the auger for material loading, push in
on the arm height pin
, lift the arm, and re-seat the
pin in the alternate plate cut-out, holding arm ele-
vated above the storage height.
For material unloading, leave the arm pinned at the stor-
age height unless it needs to be lowered for the unload-
ing operation.
