@Doctor_650 Been swinging spanners for a lot of years and found out nearly all JD tractors have a intake fuel strainer that we should probably be checking every 1500hr service.

@BenHobley 10,000 Psi of 10w oil to clear out blocked grease passages.

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

Should be either being a mechanic or farmer but instead I’m keeping the wife happy assembling her new chook house 🙈🐓

@grassrootsag Talked to the other 2 in our area aim for fuel savings, stubble retention and not insane capacity.

A little bit of nighttime wiring modifications for a X9 to Shelbourne XCV42 fitment nothing like last minute mods.

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

I guess I was looking for a new employee but wasn’t excepting these two to come for an hour drive this morning in the back of the truck 😅🤦

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

@CasFarmerCD @agronomybrady Currently in our area if not mining and like all trades depends on experience it ranges from $30-55. I’ve been a mechanic for close to 20 years and never worked anywhere that provided my tools except for specialty tooling.

Abit to clean up with the shovel but always talk to you local engineer you never know what they might have 😁

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

@dburner996 @LinkBrokering Nope it’s been a combination of things that have gotten us to this point to be honest.

Not really anyone thing but multiple that’s caused it.

Just dealing with the consequences now.

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

Question for the masses 500T twister with around 350T of Barley in it and all bottom hoppers are block anyone had success of unblocking?

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

@kurilda Bugger

[Sam Horan @Mortlock33]

@LinkBrokering Yea newer twisters got the flighting out but need to work out best way to unblock the bottom. Newer twisters don’t have a inspection hole behind the door like the older ones so if we vac it we will have to cut a hole 🤦
