2 25 to 100% Increase in Speed & Productivity vs. No Cross Auger Harvest More Crops FASTER!!!

3 2X faster Forward Speed in Lodged Canola. We installed Ag Shield Cross Augers on our 40 ft MacDon FD75 headers and more than doubled our forward speed in the same lodged canola fields. Chad Haugen - Custom Harvester - Dazey, ND

4 Benefits of Cross Augers Swath More Crops Faster!!! 25% - 100% increase in efficiency depending upon conditions No driving combines around swath piles or beaver houses in swathes Reduced downtime unplugging your combine

6 Stripper Bars Angled for FASTEST Feeding Ag Shield Patent Pending Angled Stripper Deflector Bars DEFLECT crop into auger smoothly. Stripper bars adjustable to cleanly strip the crop away before wrapping. Wrapping eliminated in all crop conditions.

7 Ag Shield Angled Stripper Deflector Prevents Wrapping Crops that is directed into the auger moves as a continuous flow to the center. No bunching or making slugs Positive feeding to finger / bullet auger Reduces near eliminates -wrapping of green crop material.

8 Ag Shield on CNH Ag Shield s patent pending angled stripper deflector on NH 840/880 and Case 3142/3162 headers promote fastest flow to center. The redline shows the location of the CNH stripper that comes with the CNH auger kit. It is horizontal, holds material below it, and material is prone to wrapping rather than flowing smoothly to the center.

90 degree horizontal stripper positioned high nearly 9 o clock position - hold crops

9 Competitive Design of Stripper Finger auger forward design of header leads to 7 wide stripper near center. 90 degree horizontal stripper positioned high nearly 9 o clock position - hold crops where wrapping is probable. Operators highly prefer to see the cutter bar from operator s seat. Forward auger position blocks operator view of cutter bar.

Competitive Design of Stripper Prevents Fastest Feeding 90 degree horizontal stripper positioned low nearly 6 o clock position - hold crops away from auger.

10 Competitive Design of Stripper Prevents Fastest Feeding 90 degree horizontal stripper positioned low nearly 6 o clock position - hold crops away from auger. Growers observe Ag Shield augers allow higher ground speeds. I replaced my Deere built cross auger with an Ag Shield built auger so that my 5th harvester could keep up with the 4 Ag Shield auger equipped combines Jeff Prosko Rose Valley, SK

likely to wrap, as to unload material at the center.

12 Competitive Auger Center Paddles are at 90 Degrees The center paddles are at 90 degrees like the hands of a clock, and are as likely to wrap, as to unload material at the center. Wrapping probable. Wrapping in peas shown in lower photo (oopsdusty windshield)

14 Ag Shield Augers Carry Crop Right to the Fingers of Center Drum Other Manufacturers Leave up to a 13 Gap Between Augers and Drum Fingers, Crop Bunches Up Resulting in Slower Feeding, Reduced Grounds Speeds

15 Ag Shield Augers Start Right at the Ends Blocks Peas from Overshoot Pulls Lodged Crops from Corners Motor drive end Bearing end. Other Manufacturers start inches from the outer end, peas shoot over the header, and lodged canola stays in the corners.

Ag Shield augers start right at the end solve problems before they start JD 640FD in heavy severely lodged canola working well Swathing canola or

16 Ag Shield augers start right at the end solve problems before they start JD 640FD in heavy severely lodged canola working well Swathing canola or straight cutting standing crop may go over the top of the header, or hang up in the corners either way the auger to both ends is the all condition solution.

17 Ag Shield Augers are Positioned Low for Optimal Performance When Swathing Ag Shield augers are typically 12 inches (30cm) above the canvases for maximum crop assist- stop wads from forming. Swath More Crops FASTER!!!

18 Ag Shield Augers are positioned low for optimal performance Shown here in Canola--Ag Shield Augers are typically 12 inches (30cm) above the canvases for maximum crop assist- stop wads from forming.

19 Ag Shield Augers are positioned low for optimal performance With auger, grower harvested 100 % of crop at higher speed, --- without auger previous year - cut the tops off peas and left lower 1/3 of crop in the field -

20 Auger Feeding in Thick Peas Lower Auger Keeps Peas Moving to Center BEFORE Wads Form.

21 All Ag Shield Features combined allow you to harvest lodged fields FASTER in all directions- here the crop leans towards header, angled stripper deflector prevents wrapping, promotes fastest flow to the center, auger at center holds, and pulls crop down to maintain flow.

22 Crop Leaning away from header, must be stood up and cross auger needs a coarse pitch, run at slower rpm, and auger needs to pass over the header bullet to hold fluff down.

23 Crop leaning crossways to the direction of travel- Right end of auger pulling crop out of the corner of the header, stripper deflector prevents wrapping across.
