You need to have everything cleaned out as much as possible that will flow by gravity. Open your center slide all the way. When you close down the center slide, and the grain piles up around the sweep gearbox, it puts too much torque on the chain and breaks it. If you need to close down the slide because of capacity issues, get the slowdown kit. The kit is simply a different sprocket. Or if whatever is taking it away from your unload isn't fast enough, put a bigger pulley on your auger to slow down the whole unload system.
