Individuals should never enter a grain bin while thebin is being loaded or unloaded. Follow all applicable safety regulations.With Sweep Auger*Capacity may vary due to grain type and conditionsTHE SWEEPWAY IS THE ULTIMATE BIN UNLOADING SYSTEM. The unloading sweep is permanently installed inthe bin for easy operation. No heavy sweep andmotor to carry in and out. Number of intermediate sumps is predeterminedbased upon bin diameter - up to six sumps areused. The Sweepway saves time and labor. There’s noneed to enter the bin; the Sweepway advancesinto the grain, removing it without back-breakingscooping. Special design prevents opening the intermediatesumps without opening the center sump to protectthe sidewalls from uneven unloading.An independent intermediate sump is standardon 8” and 10” Sweepways . The independentintermediate sump can be used to unload binwithout stressingsidewalls if center sumpbecomes blocked. Intermediate sumps are welded to the unload tubeat the factory, so there’s no assembly necessary.JUST ONE PASS AND THE SWEEPWAY POWER SWEEP WILL CLEAN UP.Exclusive Reduction Drive WheelExclusive polyurethane reductiondrive wheel comes standard onsweeps in bins 36’ and largerusing 8” and 10” Sweepway Power Sweeps. New 16-to-1 drivedecreases wheel speed withoutsacrificing forward movement. Allother Sweepways have standard4-to-1 Reduction Drive Wheel. Withthe lower speeds, wheel slippage isreduced and wheel life is prolonged.Galvanized BackboardThe Sweepway Power Sweepis equipped with a galvanizedbackboard that keeps the sweepclose to the floor as it propelsitself around the bin. The tallgalvanized backboard preventsgrain flow over the top.

HIGH CAPACITY UNLOADINGINCREASED UNLOADING CAPACITIES ANDTROUBLE-FREE OPERATION WITH THE SWEEPWAY’S UNIQUE DESIGN. Sukup manufactures and assembles the gearbox and center sump toensure top quality. Upper and lower gearboxes are offset to provide a larger opening for grainto flow. Unload flighting extends past bin center to maximize capacity. Heavy-duty external clutch enables the unload auger to operate without thepower sweep, so you can unload with gravity before engaging the powersweep. 8” & 10” sumps have a larger bearing mount that is 1½ times stronger than previous designs and a thickerbearing housing for greater durability. Self-cleaning center sump and slide gates allow you to control the flow of grain from the bin. 8” center sump is 1½ times larger than a traditional 8” center sump for better grain flow. Sealed roller bearings (standard equipment) make it easier for center slide gate to move under pressurefrom even high grain depths. 8” and 10” intermediate sumpsSystem SizeFloor Clearancealso have sealed roller bearings.Patented, Adjustable ScrapersA galvanized scraper is attached to thebackboard to ensure that the most grainpossible is picked up off the floor. Thescraper is adjustable to different heights.The Cluster Buster uses a cable spinning athigh speeds to break upgrain clumps around thecenter sump that blockthe flow of grain.

SIMPLE, ROCK-SOLID POWERHEADS FOREASY BELT ADJUSTMENTBETTER SERVICEABILITYThe powerhead design forboth the Sweepway andTube & Well systems makesbelt adjustments easier. Ahinge on all powerheadsallows the belt to be tightenedby simply turning one 3/4”bolt. By removing the hingepin, the motor may be easilymoved to another bin.Why remove the powerheadto service the flighting onyour unloading equipment?You don’t have to with Sukuppowerheads or verticalaugers. Sukup’s specialdesign allows you to pull theflighting without removing thepowerhead, so Sukup unitsare much easier to service.In addition, Sukup unload augers attach to thegearbox with a square shaft, rather than boltingto it. This arrangement makes it possible toremove the auger from the gearbox and continueunloading, if necessary. The tapered end makes iteasier to connect the shaft to the auger.SUKUP SWEEPWAYS ARE BUILT TO LAST.Sukup uses 7 gauge flighting on 6” and 8” Sweepway unload augers and 1/4” flighting on 10” Sweepways.This means you’re getting commercial-grade strength anddurability in each and every unit.SAFER - NO NEED TO ENTER BIN. All controls are located on the outside of the bin, sothere’s no reason to enter the bin while augers arerunning. All 8” and 10”Sweepway powerheadsare equipped with a rackand pinion sump opener. Sukup pioneered thesweep stop. This maybe swung out fromthe wall to stop thesweep after onepass around the bin.Flip the sweep stopback and the bin isready to fill. Standard Cluster Buster breaks up grain clumpsaround the center sumpthat block the flow ofgrain. This simple, uniquesystem is completelyoperated from outsidethe bin, eliminating theneed to enter the bin. All 6” Sweepways are equipped with aspecially-designed opener that providesextra leverage for opening sumps even underdeeper grain.SAFETY MATTERS TO US!DANGER! Never Enter Bin unless all poweris locked out and another person is present.Keep Away From Moving Parts.Augers are dangerous! Keep all shields in place.Use a safety harness and follow all applicable safety regulations.Flowing Grain May Trap and Suffocate. Crusted grain may collapse.

SUKUP VERTICAL AUGERS PROVIDE THE HIGHEST UNLOADINGCAPACITIES IN THE INDUSTRY. Available in 6” or 8” diameters, top or bottomdrive, 16’ or 20’ heights. 10” available in 16’height. Double flighting at the bottom of the verticalauger picks up grain from the unload tubefaster to increase capacity without the necessityof using a larger diameter vertical tube. Vertical auger turns faster than the horizontalunload auger to move grain up and out morequickly. Special boot design provides unrestricted grainflow from the horizontal unload tube into thevertical.GALVANIZED INCLINE AUGERSoo 5’, 25 incline on 6” or 8” systems; 7’, 20 incline on 10”systems. Goes from 6” to 8” on 6” systems, 8” to 10” on 8”systems, and 10” to 12” on 10” systems. Heavy-duty universal joint with support bushing. 6” or 8” inclines attach to bin with two chains. Optionalsupport legs are also available.DRIVE OPTIONS FOR SUKUP SWEEPWAY & TUBE & WELL UNLOADING SYSTEMSSingle Motor Horizontal DriveTwo Motor VerticalDrive - Top or BottomALSO AVAILABLE: 8” Power-Take-Off Horizontal Drive Single Motor Vertical Drive - 6” only*Shields removed to show detail.

FLOOR CLEARANCE LONG-LIFE HEAVY-DUTY AVAILABLE WITH HORIZONTAL POWERHEAD AND INCLINEEXCLUSIVE REDUCTIONDRIVE WHEELExclusive 16-to-1polyurethane reduction drivewheel comes standard onall Sukup U-Trough powersweeps. The 16-to-1 drivedecreases wheel speedwithout sacrificing forwardmovement. With the lowerspeeds, wheel slippage is reduced andwheel life is prolonged.RACK AND PINION OPENERSThe Sukup U-Trough comes with twoindependent rack and pinion openers. Oneopener controls the center sump and firstintermediate sump. The other opener controlsthe rest of the intermediate sumps in tandem.These openers use machined gears to providesmooth, hassle-free control of the slide gates.CENTER SUMPThe 1st intermediate sump opens with the centersump. If the center sump gets plugged it allowsunloading without stressing the sidewalls.EXTERNAL CLUTCHThe heavy-duty clutch is external from the gearboxand enables the unload auger to operate withoutthe power sweep, so you can unload with gravitybefore engaging the power sweep.Robust external clutch components are accessibleoutside of the gearbox. This makes maintenanceand repair much easier as well as being a timesaver.INCLINE POWERHEADSThe 20 incline utilizes a 12” diameter auger tohelp maintain capacity. Fully enclosed shields areused to meet all OSHA requirements. The pivotingmotor mount allows for easy belt adjustment andquick removal.INTERMEDIATE SUMPSSealed roller bearings (standard equipment)make it easier for center slide gate andintermediate gates to move under pressureof high grain depths.
