Operating the Sweep Auger Control Panel

A. The sweep operates in two (2) different “modes”.

1. Automatic (The auger motor runs and the drive motor runs using the Amp Meter in the

control panel.)

Step on the foot switch and press the “Start” button. The auger motor will turn ON and the drive
motor will turn ON only if the Amp Meter reaches the “Low” set point.

2. Manual (Overrides the Amp Meter and allows the operator to manually move the sweep.)

a. Idle (Allows the auger motor to run, but does not move the sweep forward or reverse.)

b. Forward (Auger motor will run and moves the sweep towards the grain.)

c. Reverse (Stops the auger motor and moves the sweep away from the grain.)

Step on the foot switch and press the “Start” button. The auger motor will turn, but the sweep will not move.
Turn the “Manual” switch to “Forward” and the sweep will move forward towards the grain. Turn the
“Manual” switch to “Reverse” and the auger motor will shut off and move the sweep backwards away from
the grain.

The “Start” button MUST be pressed to start the auger motor again.

NOTE: The foot switch MUST be depressed and the thermal protection cord wired in before the sweep

will operate.
