Automatic SFTP transfers using OpenSSH on Windows and C#

I would like to create console application in c# to automate the process of downloading some files from a SFTP server to my local hard drive at a set time each week/day.
SFTP Server installed OpenSSH for windows and client machine also.

Any ideas how I could do such a task? or sample code.

Thanks in advance.
