5.5.4 Auger Drive
The chain-driven auger is powered by a driveshaft connected directly to the combine feeder house. Auger speed therefore
depends on the feeder house speed. You can adjust auger speeds from the combine to suit harvest conditions.
Contact your Dealer for available auger drive sprocket options. Refer to Auger Drive Sprockets, page 245 for sprocket
removal and installation procedures.
Auger Drive Chain
The endless auger drive chain is driven by a shaft directly connected to the combine’s feeder house.
Removing Auger Drive Chain
The auger drive chain can be removed from the drive sprockets by releasing the tension on the chain.
WARNING
To avoid bodily injury or death from unexpected startup of machine, always stop the engine and remove the key from
the ignition before leaving the operator’s seat for any reason.
1. Lower the header to the ground, shut down the combine, and remove the key from the ignition.
