So, while I was at the meat marketing workshop, Dad was on chore duty. And as luck would have it, the feed wagon picked that day to go wonky and decide not to unload. After he spent some time taking a few things apart, and not being able to find anything wrong, he backed the cart up to the auger and shoveled out over a ton of feed so he could get the pigs fed. I didn’t ask him how long it took, but I bet his ‘slow and steady’ pace was probably at least as fast as I would have been able to do it! Not bad for an old guy eh!!
Maybe that’s what keeps him young?
When I got home, I took apart the gearbox, and couldn’t find much wrong either. But we ended up spacing the gears a little tighter, and it unloaded the next time. I wonder how long it will last…
