G'd evening Gary. We've got quite a few shots of further mods when we get this lousy harvest out the way. Bit of recreational harvesting in the lentils. Rolf did about 800 acres in half an hour. Not a sign of any seed even in the bottom of the grain elevator. 8 tonnes total off another 320 acres of lentils. Not only the drought but we also think we got hit with frost on the lentils. The western district down south of here has been very heavily damaged by frost again this year. Our wheat is lousy as well, less than a tonne _ Ha. but at least we are getting our seed back! If you put new taper roller bearings into that centre housing of the wobble box they may settle in. If you just took up some slack in the original bearings then you may be a bit tight. The center_ main taper bearing box will definitely get fairly warm and may make you pull the finger back after a few seconds touching it but it should not get to the stage where it is not advisable to touch it. It also depends on how long you ran it before the temp got up. Keep those two taper bearings on the front and back snugged up by removing the shims. As soon as you hear a knock there or see any movement take a shim or two out and you will keep your box going a long time.
