5. OPERATIONS DANGER Stay clear of auger whenever it is running 5.1. FIELD SETTING THE CROSS AUGER- FIGURE 9 SAUER MOTOR SPEED CONTROL FIGURE 10 CHARLYNN MOTOR SPEED CONTROL Cross augers can only be adjusted for speed of rotation. The correct speed for many crops would be to have the flighting advancing the crop along the canvas 5% or slightly faster than the canvas speed. To increase auger speed, rotate the flow control “C” or “D” clockwise to reduce the bypass of oil around the hydraulic motor.
