Abstract

A conveyor support system has a primary arm and a secondary arm. The secondary arm has a generally vertical, rotatable shaft at its distal end. The vertical shaft supports pivoting of a conveyor system about the shaft. A powered wheel and tire assembly is mounted on the conveyor, under an intake end of the conveyor, and is oriented in a position to drive rotation of the conveyor about the vertical, rotatable shaft disposed at the distal end of the secondary arm. The primary arm is mounted to the agricultural machine and is configured to move the conveyor from its transport position to a position in which it can be rotated to its deployed position.
