Abstract

An auger flotation limit for a crop harvesting header on which a floating auger is utilized is disclosed wherein a lower stop, defining the lower limit of movement of the auger, is connected to the upper stop, defining the upper limit of auger movement, by a strap mechanism. An adjusting mechanism operatively engages the lower stop for selectively adjusting the positional relationship between the auger and the floor of the header. The strap mechanism interconnecting the upper and lower stops permits the lower stop to be selectively adjusted without effecting the amount of flotational movement permitted to the auger. A fore-and-aft adjustment mechanism is also provided to permit the auger to be selectively adjusted in a fore-and-aft direction relative to the rear wall of the header.
