3.5. SHAFT DRIVE GEARBOX
These augers are equipped with chain couplers pre-installed on gearbox.
1. Remove chain and secure half the chain coupler to driveshaft using a 3/8” x
1-3/4” long square key.
2. Place gearbox assembly on auger tube leaving a minimum 1/8” (3.2 mm)
clearance between chain connectors.
3. Re-install chain and adjust sprocket clearance to approximately 1/16” (1.6
mm). Tighten set screw (Figure 3.7).
Important: Add EP90 lube oil the gearbox before operating auger. Failure to do so will void
warranty. Do not overfill. Fill half full only. It is easier to fill oil into gear box when
in flat position.
