MID-DRIVE
PORTABLE GRAIN AUGERS

A premium quality galvanized auger designed for low maintenance operation.
The Hutchinson "Mid-Drive" series combines operational efficiency with long term dependability providing you with a high quality, GALVANIZED auger at a very affordable price. The revolutionary "Mid-Drive" system minimizes the number of moving parts . . . greatly reducing costly downtime and maintenance in the future. Also available in durable powder coat finish.

The unique "Mid-Drive" design features an internally mounted gearbox inside of an expanded, rolled steel bell housing with access door. Auger flighting is positioned to allow a high volume of unrestricted grain flow around the internal gearbox. A new intake design incorporates a cupped intake guard to offer a high capacity, complete cleanout operation. An optional hopper bolts directly on top of the intake guard, further increasing the inlet hopper volume.

The Mid-Drive, unique in design, high in efficiency.

The Mid-Drive gearbox connects to the upper and lower flighting in the middle of the grain flow. The outer tube is expanded to allow unobstructed and efficient flow of grain past the gear drive section. This design proves to be both economical and low maintenance in operation.

WIDE STANCE UNDERCARRIAGE

The redesigned undercarriage features a simplified design for dependable operation. It incorporates a wide stance for added stability when towing or in the raised position. Wheel hubs with tapered roller bearings provide smooth, reliable transport.

UNIQUE DESIGN

The main feature is an internally mounted gearbox inside an expanded, rolled steel bell shaped tube housing. Minimal moving parts reduce costly downtime.

HYDRAULIC CYLINDER LIFT

Available on 8" and 10", models in the 52', 62' and 72' lengths. Incorporates a hydraulic cylinder for raising and lowering, eliminating the need for hand cranking.

PTO DRIVE

The PTO drive is fully shielded and conveniently located for safe operation. The PTO can be positioned to operate from either the left or right side of the auger. A lockable carrier for transport is standard.

ELECTRIC MOTOR MOUNT

An electric motor mount is available which mounts directly to the tube. The motor mount is adjustable to adapt to most farm use motors. Belts and auger sheave are standard.

TROLLEY ASSEMBLY

Steel rollers are used on a double angle-iron track for smoother operation.

RELIEF CAP

An added feature is our specially formed head cap. If the auger discharge is obstructed, the cap "POPS" off. The grain flow is diverted before damage occurs to the auger flight.

POSITIVE FEED INTAKE DESIGN

A new intake design utilizes a cupped intake guard to offer a high capacity and complete cleanout operation.

OPTIONAL BOLT-ON HOPPER

A specially engineered hopper quickly bolts directly on top of the intake guard, further enhancing the augers capacity.
