DESCRIPTION
The Farm King 1684 BackSaver Auger is meticulously designed by experts who understand the intricate needs of grain handling. As a flagship product for over four decades, it has consistently delivered dependable and efficient performance. The unique scissor lift undercarriage ensures seamless operation and allows the auger to get closer to grain bins, locking the lift hydraulics in place using a safety ball valve lever. With steel cables and solid bridging, the 13” x 114’ auger remains stable even in windy conditions, and can be easily transported with a maximum height of 15’.
Available in lengths from 50’ to 114’ and in 10”, 13”, and 16” diameter tubing, the BackSaver Auger is versatile and adaptable to various grain handling needs. It requires 40 Hp to 175 Hp for peak operation, depending on the model and auger dimensions.
