BACKSAVER AUGER Models 10", 13" and 16"

Pictured above: Model 13114
THE FARM KING BACKSAVER AUGER IS DESIGNED BY THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND YOUR GRAIN HANDLING NEEDS.

The BackSaver Auger has been Farm King’s flagship product for the past 4 decades.  With our unique SCISSOR LIFT undercarriage, operational speed and lift of the auger has never been smoother or easier. The scissor lift design is available on ALL BackSaver augers.

With the Scissor Lift design, farmers are able to get closer to grain bins and are able to lock the auger lift hydraulics when in the desired location by using the safety ball valve lever. By providing steel cables and solid bridging on our BackSaver augers, Farm King has ensured stability and peace-of-mind during operation. The steel bridging of the 13” x 114’ and 16” x 124’ augers provides exceptional stability and smooth lift under very windy conditions. Transporting your BackSaver auger made easy with a maximum transport height of 15'.

Models range in lengths of 50’ to 124’ with your choice of 10”, 13” and 16” diameter tubing. The recommended horsepower for peak operation ranges from 40 Hp to 350 Hp depending on auger diameter and length that is required for maximizing performance on your farm or grain handling operation.  

  • Models 10" and 13"
FARM KING BACKSAVER AUGERS ARE PRACTICAL, ECONOMICAL AND DEPENDABLE.
That dependability has been a benchmark of Farm King BackSaver Augers for many decades. Auger tubing sizes are available in 10" or 13" diameters and lengths ranging from 50 to 114 feet. The 43-1/2" x 60" intake hopper invites large quantities of grain to be quickly moved up the auger and into the bin.
  • 16" Model
THE 16" FARM KING GRAIN AUGERS ARE DESIGNED BY THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND YOUR GRAIN HANDLING NEEDS.
The large 16" tubing by up to 124' length allow the operator to move large quantities of grain in short periods of time. Equipped with a 4" lighting shaft, the Farm King auger handles even the dampest crops with ease.

Features

SELF-LEVELING
The self-leveling hopper on the swing-away auger will remain level regardless of auger height. The unique design allows the intake hopper to be loaded on uneven terrain. Increased flexibility relieves the hopper of unnecessary down pressure on all hopper parts.
HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS
Powered by a heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder (two on model 16104, shown), the unique scissor lift undercarriage is capable of holding the auger at a 44° angle when fully extended. With the cylinders completely compressed, the auger angle changes to 5° in transport mode.
ADJUSTABLE LIGHT
A lighting kit, available on 16" models, provides light where it is needed most when unloading after hours. One light, located on the swing-away auger, provides light to the hopper and truck unloading area. Another light on the end of the auger tube directs light to the auger spout. The high quality, flexible spout is standard.
UNDERCARRIAGE
The scissor lift undercarriage, exclusive to Farm King BackSaver Augers, requires less hydraulic pressure to raise and lower the auger. The wide undercarriage is stable and solid while still meeting transport requirements. Once positioned, a shut-off valve on the underside of the auger tube limits the circulation of the hydraulics so the auger will maintain its height.
DUAL SPOOL VALVE
The optional two spool valve allows for hydraulic operation of the intake hopper winch and the hopper mover while only using two remote valves. The hydraulic controls eliminate the need to operate the winch and intake hopper by hand. For 16124 Augers this valve controls the hitch and jack as well as the winch. Just remove the hydraulic controls section, its redundant to the dual spool section

Options

HOPPER LIFT
Powerful lifting options to get the hopper in place for transport. 3 winches are available: Hydraulic with manual control valve block, Electric with remote and manual button control and Manual winches on 10" and 13".
HOPPER SWING
Farm king Backsavers have a variety of powered swing options to suit your needs, Electric, Hydraulic, Hydraulic telescoping, (see Teleswing), and manual options on the 10" and 13". Electric movers use a automatic swing function via remote control.
LIGHTS
Farm King Backsaver augers offer both transport and work light options. 13114 and 16" models come with transport and work light kits as standard equipment with 10" and 13" models having them as options.
