We have 7 bins with 8" unloads, several different brands of unload augers & two have 8/10 25 deg heads Three of them have augers that are less than 4 yrs old & none will even come close to filling our Westfield 10"x36' swing-away(twin auger hopper) truck auger. Usually only run the old tractors at 1/2 throttle or slightly less. Can fill a 1,000 bu semi in less than 20 min. With the 10" unloads,4 yrs old, we run the tractor just above 3/4 throttle, & fill a semi in about 8 minutes. The 10" unloads have 10 hp motors & the 8s have 5hp & 71/2 hp motors.
