with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Installation Instructions
Mechanical Installation
The Swing Auger Mover is designed to clamp directly onto the swing auger tube at the lowest
point. Using the six 7/16 x 2-1/2” bolts provided, tighten the clamp around the tube such that
the main beam is horizontal when the hopper is on level ground and the auger is at its normal
working height. Clamps are available for 10”, 12”, 13”, 14” and 16” Augers.

Figure 2 Mounting Position
There is a grease nipple located on each axle sleeve. Grease before first operation and thereafter,
thereafter, as needed.
Clamp the Swing Auger Mover Drive at the
lowest point possible on the swing auger
tube so that, on level ground, the Main
Beam is level without extending the jack,
and all of the weight is off the inside
wheels of hopper.

Electric Cable Installation
The Swing Auger Mover is provided with pre-cut wire lengths with color-coded connectors
attached.
Cable Schedule:
Tractor Power Cable - 12’ c/w Red/Black PowerPole Connector.
Console Power Cable - 9’ c/w Red/Black PowerPole Connector
Console/Swing Cable - 6’ c/w Black/Black PowerPole Connector
Console/Winch Cable - 14’ c/w ¼” Ring Terminals
Figure 4 Cable Diagram
The polarity must be correct as follows: +12v on the RED STRIPE wire on the POWER CABLES
FROM THE TRACTOR TO THE CONTROL CONSOLE. The RED /BLACK connector shells MUST
MATCH.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO POWER THE CONSOLE OR DRIVE FROM A BATTERY
CHARGER ALONE AS DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. CONNECT TO A PROPERLY MAINTAINED BATTERY
SYSTEM ONLY.

Figure 5 Underside of Case Diagram
Connect the 6’ Console/Swing cable, the Console/Winch cable and the 9’ Console/Power cable
to the terminal block on the underside of the Swing Auger Mover Console For the
Console/Winch cable, connect the Blue wire to Winch terminal A and the Yellow wire to Winch
terminal B. Attach the Winch power wires to the +/- 12V power terminals of the Swing Auger
Mover Console, then fasten all cables to the terminals using the lock washers and ¼”-20 nuts
supplied. Attach the Swing Auger Mover Console at a convenient height on the swing auger
tube using the gear type clamps provided through the console holes. Connect the free end of
the Console/Winch cable to the matching connector on the Winch.
Install the 12’ Tractor Power cable onto the 12V tractor battery terminals, using the pre-
crimped 3/8” ring terminals and the 80A self-resetting fuse assembly included. The fuse
assembly must be installed between the positive battery terminal and the Red conductor of the
12’ Tractor Power cable to protect against the possibility of a short circuit. Be sure to install the
fuse assembly observing the correct polarity as indicated by the engraved “BATT” label on the
aluminum fuse bar.
Connect the 6’ Console/Swing cable to the Swing Auger Mover wheel assembly motor cable.
The polarity for the Swing A/B terminals will reverse during normal operation. If the Wheel
Drive is running in the wrong direction when operated, exchange the Swing A and B wires.
Similarly, the Winch directions can be reversed by exchanging its A and B wires.
Connect the 9’ Console/Power cable to the 12’ Tractor Power cable.
Secure cables to the swing auger tube using the supplied gear type clamps as shown.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THE TRACTOR POWER CABLES TO THE CONTROL CONSOLE
OUTPUT TERMINALS AS AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND SERIOUS DAMAGE OR INJURY COULD
RESULT!

or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
General Operation
Control Console
The Control Console contains the radio Receiver and power control circuits. The Control
Console is equipped with a Master Power On/Off switch on the outside of the case. When the
switch is ON, the Red LED should be lit indicating normal operation. Press and release to turn
On and Off.
Each of the Swing Auger Drive and Winch may be operated independently from the Control
Console by pressing the desired momentary switch. The Green “Output” LED will come on and
the selected device will operate.
The Control Console also has built-in fault status indicators. For ease of troubleshooting, if a
“low voltage” status occurs to the Control Console, the green Fault States Indicator will blink
approximately twice per second. Check all connections to ensure they are clean and tight. Make
sure that the tractor battery is fully charged, and the engine is running. If a “control circuit high
temperature” status occurs the green Fault States Indicator will flash rapidly, blinking
approximately four times per second. Allow the unit to cool before resuming operation.
Each Swing Auger Mover has its own RF receiver located in the control console, which is
channel selectable to operate in multi-component environments e.g. remote control trailer
chutes on Channels 1 & 2, and the Swing Auger Mover on Channel 3. The user can select the
desired channel using the 2-position dip-switch. All Swing Auger Movers are set to Channel 1 at
the factory.
Auxiliary Output (option)
The Control Console Auxiliary Output provides a remote control power output capable of
delivering 10A (120 watts). This feature is intended for the operation of a remote control light
for illuminating the work area when approaching at night, or for operation of a camera or other
device. The output can be activated and deactivated from the transmitter by pressing the
centre button on the RF transmitter (marked AUX), or from the Control Console by pressing the
two “Aux” control buttons on the face of the Control Console simultaneously. The auxiliary
output is protected by a thermal fuse that automatically resets when cooled. The auxiliary
output is automatically shut off when the fuse trips to prevent a repeating cycle of the fuse
tripping and resetting and must be reactivated using the transmitter or Console controls.

with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Transmitter/Receiver Matching
To match the transmitter to the receiver console:
Shut off power
Hold the learn button (swing left)
Turn power on while still holding the learn button; the receiver light learn light should
come on
Release learn button
Press any button on remote to have the receiver learn that remote.
Your receiver can learn up to 8 remotes. If you add a ninth remote the first one will be
To erase all stored security codes, turn the receiver power ON while holding the LEARN button,
and continue holding the button until the Receive/LEARN light begins to rapidly flash. Release
the button, and the light will flash more slowly for three seconds, then turn off to indicate that
the erase operation has succeeded. If the LEARN button is pressed while the Receive/LEARN
light is slowly flashing, the erase operation is aborted and the receiver retains the stored
transmitter security codes.
The Receiver is equipped with a two-position switch to enable or disable the learn and erase
functions. To enable or disable a function, open the case and locate the switch as illustrated
below. The switches and their positions are labeled on the circuit board. Factory default
systems are set by default so that the Learn function is Enabled and the Erase function is
Disabled.
