- 32 - IMPROVEMENTS IN AUGER ASSEMBLY MOVING DEVICE ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Relatively heavy duty and large auger assemb- lies often used in present day farming are difficult to move and manoeuver around a farmyard or the like and it is not always convenient to hitch a tractor to such auger assemblies for relatively short distance moving. This invention includes a small electric or gasoline motor or engine which can be operatively connected to a small wheel which is mounted within a frame secured to the auger assembly framework and which engages the ground. Means are provided so that this small wheel can be rota- ted in either direction. A small castoring wheel as- sembly supports the rear end of the auger assembly and when the small wheel is operatively connected to the motor, the wheel may be rotated slowly thus enabling the auger assembly to be moved as desired. Directional con- trol is by steering the rear end of the auger assembly manually. A further embodiment connects the motor and the main supporting ground engaging wheels directly. Alter- natively the drive can be by means of a reversible orbi- tal hydraulic motor connectors to the main supporting wheels.
