10.Pull the auger at the boot end until it begins stretching. Then let it relax. In the relaxed position, mark the
auger at the end of the boot. See Figure 41.
11.Auger stretch:
The auger needs to be stretched 7" [180 mm] per 100’ [30 m]. Example: A 300’ [90 m] feeder line requires
21" [500 mm] of stretch.
Beginning at the relaxed position, measure the required amount of stretch. Mark the auger at that point.
Grip the auger 8" [200 mm] ahead of this mark with locking pliers. Allow the auger to pull back into the boot
so that the pliers rest against the end of the boot. See Figure 42.
Use a hacksaw or bolt cutters to cut the auger at the stretched auger mark.
