Automatic Full Bin Alarm GRAIN HANDLING Accessories 22-6-33 Here are a couple of inventions that make grain handling easier.
First is the automatic "Full Bin Alarm" mounted on my 60-ft. by 13-in. dia. grain auger. It consists of a device that hangs from the end of the auger in the bin and runs off the 12-volt battery on your tractor. When the bin gets full, a signal triggers a light and siren at the bottom of the auger. No more scrambling down ladders to shut the auger off. I've used it for five years, no problems.
Next is my "Swing Auger Hopper Assist." It helps me move the hopper at the end of my auger when I swing it under semi trailers. It consists of a wheel powered by an orbit motor. The wheel simply mounts at the end of the hopper. I've used it for three years, no problems.
If there's interest, I'll build either of these devices to sell.
The bin alarm system runs $325 (Canadian). The hopper assist system runs $425. I have another system for low profile models that sells for $575. I make a hopper lift system that runs $425. Call evenings with any questions or to place an order. (Anthony Todoschuk, P.O. Box 1592, Kamsack, Sask., Canada S0A 1S0; ph 306 542-4186)
