What’s the best way to time a vertical auger?
When installing the vertical auger it is nessicary to time the horizontal and vertical augers. The two augers should be 1/4 turn off from each other. The easiest timming method is to point the leading edge of the horizontal auger so that it is pointing down or at the 6 o-clock position when viewed from the end.
