Before parking up l would move out the spout to a different spot each night. Then when you grease up in the morning all parts of the circle get lubrication.Plenty of grease did sort that issue, there should be a nipple at bottom of the spout. I got 2 bins cut this evening and the belt for the rotary separator broke. I really hope central bearings have one or I’m in trouble as tomorrow looks good. Sickening too as moisture was at 20%. The belt looks good otherwise so I really hope there was a craic somewhere that caused it to break
What combine is it?Combine didn’t break down today but unloading auger stayed on when turned off…
Tx34What combine is it?
Does it have the electric or manual unloading lever? If manual then the return spring has probably broken.Tx 34
It’s manual ya, same as yours I’d sayDoes it have the electric or manual unloading lever? If manual then the return spring has probably broken.
Think its a 130x30mm spring, handy enough to replace.It’s manual ya, same as yours I’d say
I had bother with this on mine too and it was the belt guard/guide at fault. It seems to be a very fine setting so as the belt rests on it when turned off and doesn't grip the pulley but if its too slack the belt drops and catches on the top of the pulley.Combine didn’t break down today but unloading auger stayed on when turned off…
What was wrong with the old chute that it needed changing? Is it a Ford engine in your 8070?View attachment 96234View attachment 96235
After 15 years, new chute was unboxed couple days ago. Got the chute on yesterday and tidied up up a few bits. Still need to fit on the panels, grease it, change engine oil and I hope to give it a panel wash
It had an accidental meeting with an esb pole meeting back in 06. Made a right s hook out of the auger. Dad got the auger fixed (gas torch and used a plank of ply to make look level, stuck the chute on to hear any scraping. Took it off again if there was scraping and kept going until nothing was heard) he got the new one off the insurance and kept running the old one ever since. We would have kept running it but apparently was never right since. Chute would be hopping a little when unloading. Ford engine on it as wellWhat was wrong with the old chute that it needed changing?

That must be one of the cleanest TX in the country. Have you it long @Danielk
Footage is well filmed and edited plus a good backing track.

I remember a fella collecting a replacement unloading auger for his Lexion from Claas dealer, tied the timber box to the roof of the Citroen Xantia and off he went, twas a hairy looking setup...View attachment 96234View attachment 96235
