Features

Increased Durability and Reliability

The auger features enhanced hydraulic motors and components for greater durability and reliability. With a higher-rated operating pressure, a large, durable motor shaft seal, and a hex driveshaft, it provides increased performance and reduces downtime.

Increased Efficiency and Reduced Stress

An updated auger gearbox and housing improve efficiency and reduce stress on the machine. The heavy-duty gear design ensures long life with minimal maintenance. The planetary gearbox brings the gear set closer to the motor, with increased planetary gears for higher torque.

Maintenance Reduction and Uptime Increase

Improved operating features reduce maintenance needs and increase uptime. The auger includes reverse rotation for easy backing out when obstructions are encountered and utilizes spring-loaded, double-lipped seals to guard against contamination.
