DESCRIPTION
Elevate your grain handling efficiency with the Farm King 1070 Back-saver Grain Auger, the trusted workhorse designed to make your harvest smoother, faster, and less labor-intensive. Engineered with four decades of expertise, this rugged 10" x 70' grain auger boasts a revolutionary scissor-lift undercarriage, allowing effortless, stable positioning for quick loading and unloading right next to your grain bins.
Perfect for farmers and agricultural professionals who demand durable, low-maintenance equipment, the Farm King 1070 auger features a self-leveling swing-away hopper that adapts seamlessly to uneven terrain, reducing wear and tear. Its heavy-duty PTO-driven mechanical system requires just 55 horsepower, delivering reliable power while minimizing fuel consumption and upkeep.
Whether you're transferring large volumes of corn, wheat, soybeans, or other grains, this auger’s multi-flighting hopper and optimized design move up to 6,600 bushels per hour, dramatically cutting your grain handling time. Plus, its hydraulic lift smoothly raises the tube to a 44° angle for easy bin access, then lowers to a safe 5° for transport.
Farm King’s dedication to durability means the 1070 is built with robust 12-gauge tubing and reinforced flighting to stand up to the toughest harvest conditions. Lightweight at just 3,354 lbs, it’s easy to maneuver with most tractors meeting the modest PTO requirement.
