What to do if not enough feed supplied to the Chore-Time C2 PLUS Farm Equipment feeder pans?
If the feeder pans aren't receiving enough feed, the issue might be due to insufficient time programmed on the time clock; add more operating time to the feeding period. Also, the feeder line control unit switch might be out of adjustment; adjust the switch according to the Switch Adjustment Procedure in the maintenance section.
Why does the Chore-Time toddler feeding auger run erratically?
If the auger in your Chore-Time toddler feeding system is running erratically, it could be due to several reasons. A frozen or cracked bearing at the boot might be the cause; if so, replace the bearing, carefully easing the auger back into the tube to avoid damaging the new bearing. Insufficient stretch in the auger could also be the issue, requiring you to shorten the auger. Lastly, check for any obstructions in the auger and remove them.
Why does the Chore-Time toddler feeding auger tube or boot wear out rapidly?
Rapid wear of the auger tube or boot, accompanied by noisy operation in your Chore-Time toddler feeding system, can often be attributed to a bent or kinked auger. Consider repairing or replacing the damaged auger. Another cause could be the end of the auger riding up on a weldment. Ensure the auger isn't positioned over a weld on the anchor, and check for any bending or damage to the auger.
What causes oil to leak out of the seals on the Chore-Time toddler feeding power unit?
If oil is leaking from the seals on the Chore-Time toddler feeding power unit, first check if the gearhead vent plug is installed. If not, replace the plastic shipping plug with a vent plug. If the leak persists, the gear head seal may be defective and require replacement.
