Power harrow strip down

Bobthebuilder · Sep 25, 2019

Started stripping down broken PH,

What’s left of top bearing on the rotor that fell out the other day

That was all the rollers I could find [emoji57]

So it was the whole top off and wash the trough out job [emoji849]

Will get a look tomorrow at the gears now they’re clean to see what damage there is

That a KG,
Probably is nothing to ye rich folk with yer 4 harrows..... But last time I priced the labyrinth seals for the rotors they were fairly sharp iirc, good strong Harrow tho.
Did she do much damage.

na its a KE but still £230 for 1 rotor plus 2 bearings (1 in stock), 2 seals, gaskits for trough/gearbox and a barrel of oil for the bed, just to make it presentable then it's getting put back under the 19yr old drill and going on it's holidays, managed to blag a very good deal on a 2018 sulky combination to replace it, keeping the KG harrow that's under drill atm

Had a bearing gone in the gearbox on my kuhn this time, one of the rollers punched a hole in the gearbox. Welded the hole up and it's holding oil again now

Im weird but I used to like getting in there getting the top off and getting my hands on the oily bits. Just need decent tools.

Hope you put some Loctite on the nut holding the gear on the rotor
