20t Mecmar tripped out on intake auger when it was finishing loading last night, dismantled and checked intake and all turning freely. Now trying to get going again but keeps tripping on main central auger despite getting agonisingly close to seemingly pushing through the start up phase. Any suggestions on how to overcome this and get it running please? Thanks

Thanks but no, just randomly cut out having worked faultlessly all week so had to start under load and kept tripping. Ended up upping the breaker tolerance a bit and carefully allowing some grain out of the base hatch simultaneously with start up and thankfully got it going again. Wasn't looking forward to shovelling 17t of grain!!
