Carter Pin For Auger

Sometimes, an auger’s shear pin might break. It’s not easy to replace, but it’s much easier to find. A shear pin snaps when a jam occurs in the auger shaft. The auger shaft is designed to keep on turning, but if a rock or other debris gets in the way, the shaft can stop turning. To avoid such an accident, you should make sure your auger is stopped.

To repair the auger, you’ll need to replace the shear pin, which is usually located inside the auger housing. It is usually located inside the grill, in hopper or on the outside. Customer Service can help you if you are unsure of where the pin is located. This will help you locate the auger motor pin. Another easy fix is to remove the auger motor pin from the grill.
