Subject: unloading auger from grain bin running very slow


This is a old grain bin about 50 years old. Trying to unload the beans out the bin it's the old style which has the big vertical auger on the outside. It keeps plugging up if we open the gate to wide in the grain bin. all the bearing sound okay on the vertical auger. Just doesn't have enough zip to get the beans in to the wagons. It could be the motor maybe not having enough zip to get enough power for the unloading auger. Trying to explain this is kind of hard to do. Every thing on this bin is still original augers and the motor which is very amazing. It takes us 55 minutes to load a 350 bushel wagon. That is very slow
