[QUOTE="solo, post: 8694516, member: 4327"] I would get a contractor in to shift them quickly. Stones were a big cause of digging chain breaks when we had one especially when the links wore thin. Griff chains in Dudley grew a whole business on the back of these machines before continental webbs came in. Sandy abrasive soils didn’t help. 40t would be a good day with no stoppages. Half that was more likely. Plenty of time spent on the end of a bar poking stones. Once the staff retired I spent a day on it., saw the light, and then got a contractor in with either an armour belt lift single row which removed the need for stone picking, and did about 70t/ day or a six row tanker that could fill the yard with 600t providing I could keep up with an 18t trailer! I didn’t get all nostalgic the day i dragged it to the scrap yard. ;) [/QUOTE]
