TO REPLACE AUGER SHEAR BOLT
The augers are secured to the auger shaft
with special bolts (see figure below) that are
designed to break (to protect the machine)
if an object becomes lodged in the auger
housing Use of a harder bolt will destroy the
protection provided by the shear bolt,
IMPORTANT: To ensure satety and perfor-
mance levels, only original equipment shear
bolls should be used When replacing shear
bolts, be sure to replace shear bolt spacers

as follows:
• Move the throttle to 1_ (STOP) and turn
off all controls
