Easy day today ?

 

[Robert K]

Been a long time since I did the “driving slowly in a straight line“ malarkey. Won’t be entering any ploughing matches, but not too bad for a 65 year old worn 35x.

Stripped the belts off the powerflow header on the MF combine today, all 20 bearings need replacing as well as the belts ?

 

[Robert K]

Another load of wearing parts for the plough and the power Harrow (no till look away now)

Two loads of wheat to Tilbury docks

Gave the 175 a 200hr wash and polish

I used

Autoglym super resin polish
Autoglym fast glass
Autoglym interior shampoo to muck out the cab
Fresh pack of micro fibre towels

 

[Adeptandy]

.......and no, I didn’t paint the knife Class green ?

As manufacturers make service intervals longer, are you making wash and polish intervals shorter?

 

[Muddyroads]

That would account for the wobbles!

Yes I couldn't wait for the 600 HR interval I'd be upto my neck in dust and dirt ?

 

[Robert K]

Put RTK on it ??

That would account for the wobbles!

Never know....might make it more reliable!

I’d love to see an autosteer system that could take account of the amount of wear in those king pins and steering box!

How were the back bearings, we did the fronts this year but the back ones were ok on ours?

 

[Hesstondriver]

Got a phone call today: there’s a small branch on your fence . I thought nice little evening job. I’d now like to know their definition of a large branch !! That should keep old fat spaniel warm this winter .

Not great, 2 were ok, but as the other 8 were tired they’re all getting done. MF wanted £45 a bearing and replacing all 20, Getting other quotes ?

Something needs to ??

 

[Adeptandy]

1 UJ is bad enough ?

Next stop the combine ?
