Know where the overhead electrical lines are located and stay away
from them. Electrocution can occur without direct contact.
If clear, gently lower the auger tubes using the hydraulics from the tractor cab. Ensure
the tubes are seated in the auger transport rest (see Figure 4.19). If the upper auger
tube is not fully seated in the auger transport cradle:
a. Raise the auger to working position.
b. Loosen the auger transport cradle and adjust positioning to get the best fit.
c. Lower the auger to transport position.
d. Tighten all the auger transport cradle hardware.
e. Cycle the auger up and down two times.

8. Rotate the handle of the jack on the left frame rail mounting bracket to raise the jack
base plate from the ground. Remove the jack.
9. Replace the jack onto the hitch in the stowed position using the jack retaining pin.
The GrainVac should never be disconnected from towing vehicle
without the auger fully folded into transport position. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in the GrainVac tipping over.
10. Prepare for transport or storage (see appropriate chapter for more information).
4.9.2. Emergency Shutdown
In case of emergency:
1. Immediately shut off the GrainVac power source (turn tractor or diesel engine key to
OFF position). This will eliminate all suction and rotation hazards that may
contribute to an emergency situation.
2. Remove the ignition key.
