THE MAIN FEATURES OF OUR ENGINE CRADLE


New spring loaded engine cradle which eliminates the belt tension idler. Fitted with a direct driven hydraulic pump. All augers complete with electric start motor & 23 litre fuel tank. Donaldson air cleaner fitted standard to 27, 31, 35, 37 & 40 H/P Vanguard Engines


The belts can be put in and out of gear from either side of the auger.

Fitted standard with a raised exhaust to keep it well out of the stubble reducing the fire risk.


Easily adjust the belt tension by adjusting the turnbuckle (pictured on the right). The spring allows the belts to be put in and out of gear with minimal effort.


Cover off with belts in gear, there are adjustable belt guides on the inside of the belts.


The belt guides & the cover hold the belts in position so when the belts are out of gear the auger will not drive.



Direct drive pump attaches to the three belt cast iron pulley.

A newly deigned manifold & exhaust has allowed us to directly attach the muffler to the manifold without the

use of flexible tubing.



Exhaust with rain cap fitted After market upgrades for existing augers are available.


The Fuses, Electric Brake Controller and Spout controller are tucked away in the channel of the cradle protecting them from the elements


Three belt drive with belt guides behind the belts that hold the belts when they are out of gear



Document holder attached to Auger holds motor and auger operating instructions 

THE MAIN FEATURES OF OUR AUGER LIFT


The main lift hydraulic cylinder has a  built in counter balance valve. This will stop the auger creaping down.


An extra pulley has allowed us to have the hydraulic cylinder rod inside the hydraulic cylinder barrel when the auger is in its resting/transporting position >>>


So the rod is not exposed to the elements reducing the risk of the cylinder rod pitting or bending in transport.

All Vennings Self Propelled Augers are now fitted with Electric Brakes with a self-contained controller so the auger can be legally towed at the sign posted speed behind any vehicle.


In S.A. & N.S.W. the maximum speed at which you can tow any agricultural implement without brakes is 50 km/hour. In Vic. the maximum speed at which you can travel is 20km/h less than the road speed limit.

If your agricultural implement is fitted with brakes, normal speed limits apply.

We can fit electric brakes to push around and PTO augers, and supply kits so they can be fitted to old augers, please contact us if you would like more information.
