Outlet Cutting Guidelines
1. Before ordering, predetermine the location of the outlet drops. Make sure the outlet drops
do not interfere with the connecting band locations.
2. When an outlet opening is cut, that section of tube loses much of it’s strength therefore
additional support may be necessary.
3. If you have internal bearing flighting, outlets may be cut below internal bearings but a hole
must cut in the spout halfband allow access to internal hanger bearing.
4. We recommend removing flight before cutting the tube otherwise flight will be notched and/
or rough edges will occur. This may not significantly impact the performance of the auger,
but burrs and metal chips should be removed or abnormal wear will result. Also, grind down
any rough edges on tubing for a better fit and smoother operation.
5. Carefully measure your outlet before cutting. Follow the recommended guidelines as shown
below. It is very important that the opening be large enough not to reduce capacity, but
small enough so the outlet can be covered securely by the spout.

Enclosed Slide Gates with Rack and Pinion Control
1. Follow cutting guidelines on Page - 34.
2. Attach spout to tube with backband.
3. Remove smaller outside nut from the rack and pinion connecting rod and insert rod through
the hole in the angle on the slide gate and secure with the smaller outside nut.
4. Fully close slide gate. Using the pulley, adjust the halfbands so they are located at the end
of the control rod farthest from the spout. Then tighten the halfbands to the tube.
5. Wrap rope or cable around the pulley, doubling it to prevent slippage.

5. ELECTRIC DRIVE MOTORS
Power Source
1. Use electric motors that operate at 1750 R.P.M
2. Electric motors and controls should be installed by a qualified electrician and must meet the
standards set by the National Electrical Code and all local and state codes.
3. A magnetic starter should be used to protect your motor when starting and stopping. It
should stop the motor in case of power interruption, conductor fault, low voltage, circuit
interruption, or motor overload. Then the motor must be restarted manually. Some motors
have built-in thermal overload protection. If this type motor is used, use only those with a
manual reset.
WARNING
A main power disconnect switch capable of being locked only in the OFF position shall
be provided. This shall be locked whenever work is being done on the auger.
CAUTION
Disconnect power before resetting motor overloads.
WARNING
Make sure all electrical motors are grounded.
WARNING
Reset and motor starting and stopping controls must be located so that the operator has
full view of the entire operation.
DANGER
Shut off power to adjust, service, or clean the machinery.
DANGER
Keep all safety guards and shields in place.

Start-Up and Break-In
DANGER
ALWAYS keep ALL guards and shields in place, until all the power is disconnected and
locked out.
1. Make sure all belts are tensioned properly.
2. Make sure ALL shields are in place and that the belt(s) and pulley(s) are able to move
freely.
3. Double check the assembly instructions to see that all parts have been assembled properly.
4. During operation of equipment, one person should be in a position to monitor the entire
operation.
Note: During the initial start-up and break-in period, the operator should note any
unusual vibrations or noises and take the appropriate action.
P
WARNING
Make certain everyone is clear before operating or moving the machine.
5. The bin well inside the bin should have a control gate. The gate should be closed before
start-up and closed before shutdown to allow the machine to clean out.
6. The controls for the control gate should either pull or push open, depending on the type of
well you have. Use the control gate to regulate a flow of less than full capacity until several
hundred bushels of grain have been augered to polish the flighting assembly and tube.
7. Any new screw conveyor or one that has set idle for a season should go through a
“break-in" period. This “break-in" consists of running the auger at half capacity until the
screw becomes polished and smooth before attempting to run at full capacity. It is
recommended that several hundred bushels of grain be augered at partial capacity.
CAUTION
Failure of your auger is very likely to occur if it is run at full capacity before the screw has
become polished.

Page 38
6. START-UP
CAUTION
NEVER operate augers empty for any length of time as excessive wear will result.
8. Do not stop or start augers under load, especially before the flight and tube become well
polished, as this may cause the auger to “lockup”.
CAUTION
Excessive wear will result if auger is run at speeds in excess of what is recommended.
9. Do not run auger at to slow speed, this will load up or over load the auger. An loading up of
the auger will cause the motor to over load and a higher torque will be required to turn the
auger, which in turn may cause damage to the auger.

Operate the Auger
Note: The auger capacity can fluctuate greatly under varying conditions. Moisture
content, different commodities, amount of foreign matter and speeds all play a part
in the performance of the auger. Twenty-five percent(25%) moisture may cut
capacity by as much as 40% under some conditions.
1. Make certain there are at least two (2) people in the work area to monitor operations at all
times.
2. Visually inspect the auger periodically during operation.

WARNING
Be alert for any unusual vibrations, noises and the loosening of any fasteners. If anything
unusual is detected, immediately shutdown the auger, disconnect and lockout the power
source before servicing.
3. Consideration should be given to the proper size auger for a batch drying or any intermittent
type operations. When augers are stopped and restarted under full load, it may result in
damage to the auger. Using a larger diameter auger and reducing its load level will be far
better than subjecting a smaller diameter auger to big loads. If an auger is kept from
absolute filling, it will make startup easier and will convey more efficiently.

7. OPERATION/MAINTENANCE
Maintain the Auger
DANGER
ALWAYS shutdown and disconnect the power supply before adjusting, servicing or cleaning the
equipment.
1. Use caution when repairing or replacing equipment parts.
2. Make sure ALL decals are legible and tightly attached to the auger. If necessary, replace
them FREE OF CHARGE by contacting your dealer or the manufacturer.
3. Ensure that ALL electric motors, etc. are operating at the proper speed.
4. Maintain proper adjustments on the belt(s).
5. Mount controls for any electric motors at a safe distance from the machine and in a location
accessible in case of an emergency.
6. Make sure ALL electrical wiring is not damaged, and that it meets proper wiring codes.
7. Make sure ALL components are in good working condition before use.
8. Check the auger flighting to make sure it is in good working condition.
9. Check the internal bearing bracket, bearing and universal joint to make sure they are in
good working order.
10. Grease bearing at least two (2) times each season.

Normal Shutdown
1. Make certain unloading tubes are empty before stopping the unit.
2. Disconnect and lockout the power source before leaving the work area.
Emergency Shutdown
1. Know how to shutdown the auger in case of an emergency.
2. Disconnect and lockout the power source.
3. Close bin well control gates.
4. Clear out as much grain from the auger and hopper as you can.
CAUTION
Never restart when under a full load. Starting unit under load may result in damage to the
machine. Such damage is considered abuse of the equipment.
5. Reconnect and unlock the power source.
6. Gradually clear the auger until there is no grain or obstructions.
Lockout
1. Always stop and disconnect the power source whenever the operator must leave the work
area or for maintenance of the machinery.
2. Make sure equipment is locked out and that the machinery cannot be started while the
operator is not in the work area.
WARNING
Use the type of main power disconnect switch that is capable of being locked only in the
off position.
Storage Preparation
1. Close all wells to discharge auger tube.
2. Be sure the unload tube is empty.
3. Make sure power source is disconnected and locked out.
4. Check to see that all fasteners are secure.
