Figure 8.41: Auger Clearance
5. Loosen two nuts (B) and rotate the auger to position the
flighting over the feed pan.
6. Turn bolt (A) clockwise to increase clearance (C); turn
bolt (A) counterclockwise to decrease clearance (C).
• If the feed auger is in the fixed position, set clearance to
22–26 mm (7/8–1.0 in.).
• If the feed auger is in the floating position, set clearance
to 11 –15 mm (7/16–5/8 in.).
NOTE:
The clearance increases between 25–40 mm (1–1 1/2 in.)
when the center-link is fully retracted.
7. Repeat Steps 5, page 283 and 6, page 283 for the opposite
end of the auger.
IMPORTANT:
Adjusting one side of the auger can affect the other side.
Always double-check both sides of the auger after making
final adjustments.
8. Tighten nuts (B) on both ends of the feed auger. Torque the
nuts to 93–99 Nm (68–73 lbf·ft).
9. Rotate the drum and double-check clearances.
