August 11, 2016

View of the day-Alexander keeping the combines rolling with the grain cart.

We went out to the field to do a bit of work on the header...it seemed to be lower on one side. After reading the manual over and trying a few things, we called our expert, Paul from MacDon and he told us exactly how to straighten things out. We discovered the bolt we had to turn was on the end of a clevis and the pin was missing. They didn't have one at the dealership, so we found a bolt that was in the neighbourhood, sizewize, and that did the trick.

We got the word to move to the next field and crank it up around 2pm...it really did only rain a tenth at the field. The rest of the day went smoothly for the most part...the occasional rock/stump/dirt pile, but mostly smoothish sailing.

And the rain stayed away...
