GENERAL ASSEMBLY INFORMATION
Component Unloading And Identification
Unload the crate(s) and components in flat level
area of adequate size to assemble the auger.
DANGER
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
To prevent serious injury or death from
electrocution:
• Be aware of overhead power lines.
• Keep away from power lines when unloading and
assembling the auger.
• Electrocution can occur without direct contact.
WARNING
DO NOT permit bystanders to be in the work area
when unloading and assembling components.
DO NOT work under suspended parts.
Keep away from moving parts.
Always use lifting devices / vehicles, chains
or straps of adequate size and strength when
unloading and assembling components.
IMPORTANT
Unload crate(s) and auger components carefully,
not to cause damage to any of the components.
Using the packing list, locate and place all
components and hardware in one area. Count the
individual components and verify that you have
received the correct number of components to
fully assemble the auger.
If any components are damaged, missing or
replacement parts are required, contact your Farm
King Dealer.
Assemble the Auger in the following order:
1. Undercarriage
2. Tube sections and driveline
