Get the best performance out of your AGI swingaway auger

Avoid costly breakdowns during harvest by doing maintenance on your AGI swingaway auger now. Here are some pre-harvest maintenance tips.

  • If you’ll be using a new or different tractor with your auger, realign the hitch to ensure proper spacing between the PTO shaft and tractor. Consult the manual for specific distances.
  • If your auger settled during the winter months, tighten up the truss cables.
  • Open the gearbox and check fluid levels, grease the u-joint and check the chain. 
  • Torque all tires and check the air pressure.
  • Check the lift cable for frays.

Get your AGI swingaway auger ready for winter

Now is the time to prepare your AGI swingaway auger for the cold winter months. Here are some post-harvest maintenance tips.

  • Reverse the flighting to get any debris out of the auger. And open up the covers on each side to remove debris that may attract rodents.
  • Check the gearbox for leaks and oil level.
  • Ensure your PTOs are set up properly and won’t be damaged. Store the tractor half inside if possible.
  • If you have an electric mover kit, remove the battery from the remote and store inside over winter.
  • Put the auger down into transport position for the winter.
