SWEEP WHEEL RETRO KITS

KIT PART NO’s. 1046088 & 1046089 for 7” O.D. FLIGHTS

and

KIT PART NO’s. 1046090 & 1046091 for 9” O.D. FLIGHTS

Before beginning assembly it is suggested to read through these instructions and lay out all items from the kit to

ensure all parts are accounted for. This not only helps you become familiar with the parts and assembly procedures,

but also makes you aware of what tools, equipment or materials you may need to complete the installation process.

Install Wheel Kits

Retro Kit 1046089 f/ 7” O.D. sweep flights

The following instructions are for the new style sweep wheels that will be installed on the existing power sweep and

klean sweep augers. Note: The bolt kits are the same for each of the retro kits, therefore, not all hardware

in the bolt kits will be used for each application.

1. Remove the existing sweep wheel from the sweep

auger if applicable.

2. Attach the sweep wheel to the drive wheel mounting

bracket and secure using the 1/4” x 3/4” bolts and

lock washers. IMPORTANT! Tighten the inside

bolts first when installing the wheel to the

bracket (See Fig. 1).

3. Apply anti-seize compound to the wheel shaft and

insert the shaft into the end of the flight. Align

mounting holes and secure to flight using a 1/2” x 3”

bolt and 1/2” nylon locknut (bolt size may vary

depending on application).

Fig. 1

IMPORTANT! When assembling these kits to the sweep, remember that the drive wheel

shaft is installed into the flight first, then the wheel mount brackets and shields are aligned

accordingly. Do Not force the shields to fit tight against the bracket(s) if there is a gap

between the two, use shims and/or spacers to fill the gaps.

4. After the wheel has been attached to the flight, check

to verify that the sweep shield mount holes align

with the holes in the wheel mounting bracket.

If the holes do not align, it may be possible to readjust

all the shields to add the extra length needed (begin

at the first shield section and continue towards the

end wheel).

If the shields cannot be readjusted to fit, clamp the

bracket and shield together and mark the appropriate

holes for drilling. Drill an 11/32” (9 mm) dia. hole at

each location.

5. Secure using the 5/16” x 1” bolts, flat washers and

nylon locknuts. Note: It may be necessary to use

flat washers as spacers to fill any gaps between the

shield and wheel mount bracket (spacers go in

between the shield and the wheel mount bracket,

See Fig. 3).

It may also be necessary to use a longer bolt when

adding these spacers). When tightening the bracket

and shield hardware, make sure the shield does not

twist or have to be pulled into position, use the

spacers accordingly.

3. Apply anti-seize compound to the wheel shaft and

insert the shaft into the end of the sweep flight.

Secure the shaft and flight using the appropriate

length bolt and nylon locknut (See Fig. 5).

Installation of these kits is very similar. Though some

items may differ in appearance than what is shown in

the following illustrations, the assembly procedures

detailed can be used as installation instructions for any

of these three kits.

Some applications may require the wheel shaft

to be drilled to ensure flight connection to shaft. If

necessary, drill the new hole at 90 degrees from

the existing hole.

1. Remove the existing sweep wheel from the sweep

auger if applicable.

2. Attach the sweep wheel to the mounting bracket and

secure using the 1/4” x 3/4” bolts and lock washers.

IMPORTANT! Tighten the inside bolts first when

installing the wheel to the bracket (See Fig. 4).

Shields and flights may require some adjustment

in order to make the drive wheel fit properly.

Use spacers and shims to fill any gaps between

the shield and wheel mount bracket.

5. After securing the wheel, wheel shaft and flight as

detailed in Steps 2 and 3, Install the attachment

bracket to the back of the sweep shield. Secure

using 3/8” x 1 1/4” bolts, flat washers and nylon

locknuts.

Use the shims to fill in any gaps that may be between

the wheel mount bracket and attachment bracket.

Tighten hardware. If there are any gaps, Do Not

try to tighten the hardware to pull the brackets

together, always use shims or spacers to fill the

gaps before tightening the hardware.

4. Some sweep shields have a bearing plate welded at

each end, install the wheel bracket as follows.

The wheel mount bracket can be secured to the shield

using 3/8” x 1 1/4” bolts, flat washers and nylon

locknuts. There may be a gap between the wheel

bracket and the shield mounting plate, insert the

appropriate amount of shims required to fill the gap

(Do Not leave a gap and try to pull it tight by

tightening the hardware, always fill the gap with

shims before tightening, See Fig 6).

If there is no gap and the wheel mount bracket

does not fit at the end of the shield, it may

require redrilling the wheel shaft to allow the

flight to be secured.

If redrilling is required, make sure to drill at 90

degrees from existing hole.
