Verify Auger Off
A valve at the inlet end of the auger controls On/Off and
direction of auger rotation. It has an operating handle at
each end of the auger tube.
Refer to Figure 14
Make sure the control at the auger itself is set to Off
before operating any other hydraulic controls.
If this valve is not Off, the auger may begin rotating
unexpectedly when other controls are operated.
8.
Set the auger direction valve to the middle position
for Off.
Diverter Valve
This valve is located on the inside of the left tongue tube.
It selects whether the circuit supplies the auger, or the
trailing implement.
Refer to Figure 15
Do not operate this valve with the hydraulic circuit energized.
Unexpected drill/marker movements or auger rotation can
result.
Do not use this valve as the Start-Stop control for the auger.
Operate the valve with the tractor hydraulic circuit off, or
set to neutral or float. The handle has two positions.
