STEP 1: Run the Auger Bucket until all of the material is removed from the bucket.
STEP 2: The operator should remain in the vehicle seat and run the auger in reverse. A
second person, standing a safe distance away from the Auger Bucket, should use a
hose to add water to the discharge end of the bucket.
STEP 3: After most of the material has been cleaned from the bucket, raise the bucket and
tilt it forward. This will allow the second person, standing a safe distance away
from the Auger Bucket, to use the hose to rinse out any remaining material.
STEP 4: Level the Auger Bucket, and lower it to the ground.
STEP 5: Shut off the vehicle engine, lower the arms, relieve all hydraulic pressure (by
activating the vehicle controls), and remove the vehicle key before leaving the
vehicle seat.
STEP 6: Disconnect the hydraulic hoses from the vehicle’s auxiliary hydraulics.
STEP 7: Remove the cotter pin, and lift the splash shield at the discharge end of the bucket.
Clean it with water. Make sure there is not any material between the auger and the
discharge casing.
STEP 8: Replace the splash shield, and secure it with the cotter pin.
STEP 9: Coat the bucket with a water based releasing agent. Do not allow concrete to dry
in the bucket or water to freeze in the bucket. This will cause damage to the rubber
flighting and damage the bucket itself.
Keep clear of auger while in operation. Never position the
material by hand or with any tool when the auger is rotating.
Before disconnecting hydraulic lines or fittings be sure
to relieve all pressure by cycling all hydraulic controls
after shutdown. Remember hydraulic systems are under
pressure whenever the engine is running and may hold
pressure after shutdown.
