2020 Wheatheart XTA Truck Auger 08-41

Wheatheart’s truck auger has been redesigned from top to bottom and is engineered to perform at optimum levels when farmers need it most. The XTA is an X-Treme Truck Auger that was built for durability, longevity and capacity. With the XTA, you’ll get the job done fast.

Features may include:

• The XTA features a heavy-duty motor mount designed to handle high horsepower, heavy auger engines, giving you the flexibility to use the engine you want. Like all Wheatheart augers, the flighting includes Wear Edge Technology™, which provides an extra layer of steel welded to the edge at critical wear points. The purpose-built hose routing provides a cleaner sleeker look and protects the hoses from the elements and powder coat paint to protect and provide a long lasting durable finish. The 10" models use square, one-bolt flight connections to ensure the flighting maintains proper alignment for smooth operation.

• The XTA uses double banded belts that are molded together as one to transfer maximum power from the engine to the gearboxes to maintain consistent speed when the auger is running.

• Wheatheart’s XTA is designed with end users in mind. The belt tensioner is designed to engage and disengage the flighting and can be adjusted without tools, eliminating the need to lift the motor. The self-leveling motor maintains proper tension at all heights, so there is no need to reset the belt tension once the auger is raised into position. This means there is less slippage so you can get the job done faster.

• The drive shaft bearings are constructed of durable, oil impregnated hardwood for long, quiet operation and can be easily replaced if needed without disassembling the drive shaft. The bearing brackets are factory jig welded to ensure precise alignment. The chain tensioner on the top drive can be easily adjusted and provides consistent chain drive tension, helping to prolong the life of the chain.

• The XTA features a quick detach tow hitch that can be stored on the auger so it’s ready to go when you need it.
