Configuration and Compatibility:
Configuring the Grain Saver Gravity Box Auger involves selecting the options that best match your grain type and equipment:
- Length: Choose between 11 and 14 based on the height of your gravity box or grain cart and the required discharge reach.
- Flighting Type: Select the flighting that best suits the grain you handle:
- Standard: Good for common grains like corn and soybeans.
- Cupped: Increases capacity, useful for faster unloading or when operating at steeper angles.
- Bristle: Gentler handling for seed grains or easily damaged commodities.
- Poly/Poly Cupped: Recommended for treated seeds, fertilizer (if compatible), or when seeking extended wear life and reduced friction.
- Hydraulic Requirements: Ensure your tractor or power source provides adequate hydraulic flow and pressure to operate the auger motor effectively. Consult manufacturer specifications if available, or test with your equipment.
- Mounting: The included tube saddle provides a base for mounting, but specific brackets or modifications to your gravity box or grain cart may be required for secure attachment. The cable support kit is intended for stabilizing the auger on grain carts.
- Safety: Always ensure the auger is securely mounted before operation. Keep hands and clothing away from the intake and moving parts. Follow standard hydraulic safety procedures.
