4. Install bolts to secure the flighting extensions in place.
5. Remove screws (A) and remove the nearest access
cover (B).
6. Install nuts from inside the drum, and tighten
all hardware.
NOTE:
The flighting extensions will normally fit tight to the
auger tube; however, it is not unusual for the right
flighting extension to overlap the cover panel creating a
gap between the flighting extension and the auger tube.
Gaps that appear over the cover panels or in other
locations cause crop material to gather in the gap
openings, but this will not generally affect performance.
Use silicone sealant to fill the gaps if necessary.
7. Replace access cover (B) and secure with screws (A).
Coat screws with Loctite
®
#243 (or equivalent) and
torque to 8.5 Nm (75 lbfin).
