No accident-prevention program can be successful without the whole-hearted cooperation
of the person who is directly responsible for the operation of the equipment.
To read accident reports from all over the country is to be convinced that a large number
of accidents can be prevented only by the operator anticipating the result before the accident is
caused and doing something about it. No power-driven equipment whether it is transportation or
processing, whether it is on the highway, in the harvest field, or in the industrial plant, can be safer
than the person who is at the controls. If accidents are to be prevented--and they can be
prevented--it will be done by the operators who accept the full measure of their responsibility.
It is true that the designer, the manufacturer, and the safety engineer can help; and they
will help, but their combined efforts can be wiped out by a single careless act of the operator.
It is said that, “The best kind of a safety device is a careful operator.” We, at Killbros ask
that you be that kind of operator.
Thank-You!

Categroy 1 (Under 65 H.P.) 1"
* Information gathered form: ISO/TC2/SC2 N4123
- - With cart hitched to tractor, hook-up P.T.O. (see pg. 10-C), following all safety precautions.
- - Hook up 7-point electrical plug connection to tractor.
- - Be sure hitch is positioned as shown above. Gusset should be to top of hitch.
HYDRAULIC HOOK-UP

8
CAUTION! When coupling hyd. hoses to ports on tractor, be sure that coupler ends are clean of
dust, dirt and debris. Failure to do so could contaminate hydraulic system resulting in excessive wear and
possible failure.
- - Properly identify the hoses for the auger fold and the flow control operation.
- - It is advisable to use the hydraulic control lever closest to the operator (most commonly known
as control lever No. 1) to activate the flow control.
- - Once everything has been hooked up, test for any possible adjustments:
-Are tires inflated to proper pressure?
-Does Auger run smoothly?
-Does Dump Auger fully extend?
-Does P.T.O. operate properly?
-Is Slip Clutch set too loose or too tight?
-Does Flow Control Gate operate properly?
-Is Indicator Arm working properly?
-Are all lights working properly?
If any one of these is not adjusted properly please read the SERVICE section outlined in the
manual or contact your nearest Killbros dealer for further information.
With everything in good operating condition, be sure to close flow control gate before use.
OPERATION IN FIELD
The Grain Cart is not insulated. Keep away from all electrical lines and devices. Electrocution can
occur without direct contact.
1. Make sure the flow control door is in the closed position before loading into the cart.
2. Engage PTO at a low RPM; increase to 1000 RPM. It is not necessary to operate tractor at
full throttle while unloading. (Optimum speed is 850 RPM)
3. Open the flow control to desired rate.
4. Use the flow control opening to slow the rate of the flow rather than the tractor’s RPM. NOTE:
If overload causes the clutch to slip (standard PTO drive) or motor to stall (hydraulic drive),
close flow gate immediately. Excessive heating of the clutch will require replacement of
internal parts. Close flow control door and relieve auger unload pressure by opening bottom
pit dump door to remove some grain from auger.
5. Do not disengage the auger with the flow gate open. Excessive start-up torque may result,
putting stress on the cart driveline and your tractor.
6. Properly identify the tractor remotes for proper hook-up of the flow control and auger fold. A
mix-up can damage the auger drive system.
7. Under any circumstance, DO NOT enter the cart with the auger or tractor running.
8. It is strongly advised that the unloaded auger always be returned to the transport position
when not in use.
Operating the PTO
When finishing operation of PTO driven
equipment, shift PTO control to neutral, shut off
the engine and wait until the PTO stops before
getting off the tractor and disconnecting the
equipment.

9
Do not wear loose clothing when operating the
power take-off, or when near rotating equipment.
To avoid injury do not clean, adjust, unclog, or
service PTO driven equipment when the tractor
engine is running.
Never exceed the recommended operating
speed for the particular equipment in use.
PTO drive shafts must only be used for their
intended purpose.
PTO drive shafts, clutches, and freewheels are
designed for specific machine types and power
requirements. Other models must not replace
them.
NOTE: See the tractor and implement
manufacturers’ operating instructions.
Ensure that the PTO shaft is securely
connected.
A. Only use a completely shielded drive
system:
PTO drive systems with complete shielding
include the tractor master shield and
implement shielding installed all the time. If
any component of the shield system has
been removed for any reason it, or an
identical replacement part, must be installed
before operation.
B1
B. Maximum Joint Angles:
1. Joint (Standard Type)
Continuous operation 25 degrees
Short duration 45 degrees
Stationary 90 degrees
Check shaft articulation and clearance zone!
Joint articulations of more than 45 degrees
lead to damage. Contact between PTO drive
shaft and tractor or implement (e.g. three-
point hitch, drawbar) lead to damage.

1. Twist locking collar and simultaneously
push PTO drive shaft onto PTO shaft
until the locking device engages.
QD Pin-Lock (Not Shown)
2. Push locking pin and simultaneously
push PTO drive shaft onto PTO shaft
until the locking device engages.
Check to insure all the locks are secure
before engaging the PTO drive shaft.
D1
D2 D3
D. Lubrication (Figs. D1-D3)
Lubricate with quality grease before starting
work every 8 operating hours. Clean and
grease PTO drive shaft before each
prolonged period of non-use. Molded nipples
on the shield near each shield bearing are
intended as grease fittings and should be
lubricated every 8 hours of operation.
Telescoping members must have lubrication
to operate successfully regardless of
whether a grease fitting is provided for that
purpose. Telescoping members without
fittings should be pulled apart and grease
should be applied manually. Check and
grease guard tubes in winter to prevent
freezing.
E1 E2
E3
E. Chains (Figs. G1-G3)
NOTE: The chain is intended to prevent the
shield from rotating against non-moving
parts, thereby preventing shield damage. A
properly installed chain will increase the
service life of the shield.
1. Chains must be fitted to allow sufficient
articulation of the shaft in all working
positions. Care must be taken to be sure
that chain does not become entangled with
drawbar hitch or other restrictions during
operation or transport of machine
2. The PTO drive shaft must not be
suspended from the chain when PTO is not
in use or unattached from drive unit.
3. If chain should become unattached, do not
attempt to reattach it with the PTO engaged.
Turn off PTO and tractor engine before
making any repairs. If chain is missing
replace it before use.

F. Dismantling guard:

11
1. Keep cone pressed downward and
release collar tabs by pushing with a
screwdriver. Push cone off tube.
2. Spread collar to remove from tube.
3. Slide tube off the shaft.
G1 G2
G3 G4
G. Assembling guard:
1. Grease collar groove and inner profile
tube.
2. Fit shield tube into collar by centering
the slots over the collar teeth.
3. Align cone, centering grease nipple to
grease filling hole on collar. Press
downward to connect.
4. Make sure the three collar tabs are
properly engaged by tapping on cone.
H. Slip Clutch - preset at factory
Damage may occur to other parts of the
grain cart if the spring tension is not set
properly. Correct operating procedure of the
slip clutch is to have it slip slightly with each
use.
1. If adjustment is necessary, length from
flange surface to underside of nut should
be 27.5 MM (1.15”).
2. Tighten nuts following an alternating
cross pattern until reaching the height
specified. Check that height is constant
for all springs.
3. If too much slippage occurs, only tighten
each nut a quarter of a turn at a time.
This quarter turn will increase the torque
approximately 500-750 inch lbs.
4. After extended time without use, the slip
clutch may freeze up. It is very important
at the beginning of each season to
loosen the nuts, slip the clutch, and
retighten the nuts to the correct length.

Item Description
1Front, Center, Rear Bearings - Daily
2Replace every season, 2 quarts 90W oil
3Five shots of grease per season
4See page 10
5Repack once every 2 years;
adjust bearing take-up once per season
SERVICE TIPS
SELECTING PROPER TRACTOR FOR YOUR CART
Approximate loaded weight of cart - 34,500 lbs.
Approximate loaded hitch weight of cart - 3,300 lbs.

16
WHEEL NUTS
Check all wheel nuts for tightness before first load. Failure to do so may damage wheel nut seats.
Once seats are damaged, it will become impossible to keep nuts tight. Tighten nuts to 400 ft. Lbs.
Retighten after first three loads and check periodically during first season of use.
TIRE PRESSURE
The following is to be used as a general guide for tire inflation. Figures may vary depending on
specific brand of tire used. It is important that tires are inspected after unit is loaded. The tire
should stand up with no sidewall buckling as tire rolls.
23.1 x 26 35 P.S.I.
18.4 x 38 37 P.S.I.
20.8 x 38 37 P.S.I.
24.5 x 32 38 P.S.I.
U-JOINTS
The U-joint will give you many years of service if grease is applied to each joint and spline weekly.
GEAR BOX
To check fluid level, grain cart must be setting level.
-- The fluid level plug and fill plug is on the backside of the gearbox.
For maximum gear box life:
-- Check oil level every two weeks
-- Replace oil every season, fill to fluid level plug or 2 quarts 90 weight oil
AUGER SYSTEM
Annually check all bolts, nuts, and set
screws. Perform lubrication as specified.
The vertical auger screw on upper and lower
auger tubes are designed to self align while
extending upper auger. If misalignment
occurs, realignment can be made by
adjusting the hanger bearing, located at top
of lower auger. (See figure 2 for exact
location). If auger is still misaligned, check
the gearbox to see that all hardware is
secure and tight.
(Figure 2)
FLOW CONTROL GATE
The Flow Control Gate is designed to
prevent grain from putting an excess load on
the horizontal auger during initial start-up. If
gate is not working properly check:
- - the hyd. cylinder, making sure hoses are
attached properly, clevis pins are secure,
and fluid level in cylinder is at its
recommended level.
- - for any debris that may have wedged
between gate and auger tube.
- - indicator linkage. See that it is not binding
up.
INDICATOR ARM
The Indicator Arm lets the operator know the
position of the flow control gate, open or
closed. This arm is connected to the flow
control gate. If the indicator arm is not
working properly see that the hardware
connecting the linkage is secure and not
binding up. See flow control gate for further
adjustments.
ASSEMBLY

17
Some assembly is required before initial use
and operation. All Grain Carts come
shipped without the upper auger, work light,
and hydraulic cylinder and hoses installed. If
dealer hasn’t already installed all equipment
please refer to the following for proper
location and installation. Before operation,
double check to see that all components are
installed and working properly to prevent
damage to cart or personal injury.
All components of cart are shipped with cart
and stored in the least likely spot not to be
damaged during shipping. Cart is shipped
with 1 upper auger, 1 work light, 1 hyd.
cylinder, and 4 hyd. hoses. The upper auger
is noticeable, located behind the ladder. The
hydraulic hoses are secured with cable ties
around the ladder. The hydraulic cylinder in
located on the right frame channel directly
behind front frame standard. The work light
is located, opposite the hydraulic cylinder, in
a box taped to the channel support. See
(Figure 3) for locations.
(Figure 3)
Installation
Refer to (Figure 4). Remove hydraulic hoses
from ladder by cutting the cable ties used in
shipping. Be careful not to cut hoses. On
one end of each hose is a hydraulic coupler
that will attach to the tractor. Connect the
opposite end to the cart. (1) Connect the
four male hoses to the female fittings used
for the upper auger. To prevent damage to
these hoses, secure to outside rail of ladder.
(2) From ladder, run hoses through the U-
brackets welded along the inside channel for
further protection of the hydraulic hoses. (3)
Install the work light to the auger chute. For
hardware listing see pg. 28. Secure the light
to the brackets used for the upper
bearing.(4) Feed wire used for the light
through the channels welded to the chute
and backside of the upper auger. (5) Install
the upper auger so that it is in the rest
position, resting on the rest bracket located
to the back of the cart. Position auger, lining
up the holes where auger is hinged. Once
aligned secure hinge pin with expansion pin.
Refer to page 20 for hardware listing. Auger
screws will pre-align once upper auger is
extended. (6) Install hydraulic cylinder and
secure with cylinder pins and clips. Upper
auger may have to be slightly extended or
