any advice and some diagrams would be helpful

thanks in advance



Try looking at the split nuts on top of the auger screws. Initially, you may have to remove the hold down bracket over the nut, split the nut and raise 1 side so it is level. If the problem continues, you may have to replace the worn split nut sets so the ram travels up and down level.
