Operation Procedures

PNEG 1079 - 6", 8", & 10" Vertical Bin Unloading Auger

4. BREAK-IN PERIOD

Before operating the unit, add #90 weight non-foaming oil to the gearbox until it reaches the level check plug in the side of the gearbox.

Any screw conveyor when it is new or after it sets idle for a season should go through a “break-in” period. The auger should be run at partial capacity until several hundred bushels of grain have been augered. This polishes the flighting assembly and tube. Once this is accomplished, the auger can be operated at full capacity. The auger should not be operated empty except at start-up and during clean-out.

5. PTO DRIVE

Only use a tractor with 540 RPM Power Take-Off. If the tractor output PTO shaft is operated at 540 RPM, the auger will have a 540 RPM auger flight speed.

NOTE: The PTO driveline furnished with the auger is equipped with a “SPRING-LOCK” coupler at the tractor end. This type coupler is spring loaded and will fit the standard 1-3/8" x 6 spline PTO output shaft from a tractor. The retaining balls of the coupler lock into the ring groove of the tractor PTO output shaft to prevent inadvertent detachment. The PTO driveline is a pin stop-type; that is, the two telescoping sections will not sepa- rate. It is a good practice to operate the PTO driveline in as short a configuration as possible and keep in line with the tractor as much as possible during operation.

DOUBLE CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE ADDING POWER:

Before starting the tractor, be certain power to PTO is off.

Be certain that the PTO driveline is securely attached to the auger and the tractor.

Use a PTO driveline with a rotating shield in good working order that can be turned freely on the shaft.

Align PTO driveline with tractor.

Engage PTO at a slow RPM to minimize shock loads. Then work up RPM to recommend speed.

Never Operate the auger empty for any length of time, as excessive wear will result. If at all possible, don’t stop or start the auger under load, especially before the flight and tube have become well polished, as this may cause the auger to “freeze-up.” ( See Break-In Period above.)

TO START AUGER:

1. Before starting the tractor, be certain power to PTO is off.
2. Start Tractor.
3. Engage PTO at a slow RPM to minimize shock loads. Then work up RPM to recommended speed.

TO STOP AUGER:

1. Let auger empty of grain before stopping.
2. Disengage PTO and lockout.

Operation Procedures

6", 8", & 10" Vertical Bin Unloading Auger - PNEG 1079

6. ELECTRIC MOTOR DRIVE

Use a 1750 RPM motor with H.P. as suggested in the chart below. Electric motors and controls shall be installed by a qualified electrician and must meet the standards set by the National Electrical Code and all local and state codes. Use a 4-1/2" motor pulley (not furnished) for 650 RPM flight speed (6" & 8"). Use a 4" motor pulley for 580 RPM flight speed (10").

A magnetic starter should be used to protect the 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 one with manual reset.

Reset and motor starting controls must be located so that the operator has full view of the entire operation. A main power disconnect switch capable of being locked only in the OFF position shall be provided. This shall be locked whenever servicing or adjusting the auger.

The horsepower recommendations are based on clean, dry shelled corn or wheat. High moisture grain (above 15%) will require greater power. The maximum possible capacity will be less with high moisture grain than with dry grain.

Disconnect power before resetting motor overloads. Make certain electric motor is grounded.

Never operate the auger empty for any length of time as excessive wear will result. If at all possible, do not stop or start the auger under load, especially before the flight and tube become well polished, as this may cause the auger to “freeze-up” (See “Break-In Information” on page 11)

CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE ADDING POWER:

1. Double check to make sure the guards are secured in place and functional.

TO START AUGER

1. Start electric motor before conveying grain.

TO STOP AUGER

1. Let auger empty of grain before stopping.
   2. Shut off electric motor and lockout.

Horizontal Flight and Horsepower Required

Horizontal Flight Length Vertical Horsepower Bin Dia.

NOTE: For higher moisture grain (up to 25%) the next larger motor may be used as a maximum.
