Auger Assembly Lubrication
Lubricate Auger Gear Box
The auger gear box is lubricated at the factory and should
not require additional lubrication. However, if lubricant has
leaked out or the auger gear box has been serviced, addi-
tional lubricant may be required.
To check the auger gear box grease level, remove the filler
plug (A, Figure 13). Using a piece of wire as a dipstick, check
to confirm the presence of grease in the gearbox. If grease is
visible, do not add. If grease is not visible, add the required
lubricant. Use the color of the remaining grease to determine
what type of lubricant to add. If the grease is white in color,
add Lubriplate GR132 Grease or equivalent. If the grease is
brown in color, add EP1 lithium grease. Gearbox lubricant
capacity is 3-1/4 ounces (92 grams).
NOTE: Some auger gear boxes do not have a filler plug.
Please see your dealer for maintenance.
Lubricate Auger Shaft Fittings
Using a grease gun, lubricate the auger shaft fittings (B,
Figure 13). Refer to the Maintenance Schedule. Each time a
shear bolt or pin (C) is replaced, the auger shaft MUST be
greased.
For storage or when replacing shear bolts or pins, remove
the shear bolts or pins (C), lubricate the shaft fittings (B),
and rotate the augers several times to distribute the grease.
Reinstall the shear bolts or pins when complete.
NOTE: Some models are not equipped with grease fittings
and are exempt from these requirements.
Discharge Chute and Deflector
Lubrication
Lubricate the chute rotation gear (Figure 14) with grease, and
the deflector mechanism with automotive type oil. Refer to
the Maintenance Schedule.
Where an oil can is pictured, lubricate with engine oil. Where
a grease gun is pictured, lubricate with lithium grease.
Hex Shaft and Chain Lubrication (if
equipped)
The hex shaft and drive chains must be lubricated at the
interval specified in the Maintenance Schedule. Please have
your authorized dealer perform this maintenance.
Gear Drive System (if equipped)
The gear drive system requires no maintenance or adjust-
ment. Should you have a problem with the gear drive system,
contact your authorized service dealer.
