    My trucks will be squirrelled away in the shed tonight so as to not tempt the dark gray sky building to the south and west of here. June 1 we could probably have everything beat if the equipment quits literally grenading itself.

    Sorry didn’t mean to like that picture. I suggest moving your hydraulics to float to turn it off. It is much easier on the fan motor.

      Looks like a fan hyd motor on a 4/5000(maybe) series air tank?

        It’s on a 3225 Bourgault tank. The tank came as a double shoot and we’re using it as a single shoot now so luckily there was a spare fan and motor sitting a foot away. It’s got a check valve in the hydraulic plumbing so the motor can freewheel when you shut it down.

        It was an original and was leaking oil anyway. Might have been a little overspeed from trying to push 500+ lbs/ac of fert on the corn ground. 😉

          My fat fingers and those close buttons do the same lots. 👍

            500 lb/acre! Do you fill every third pass?

              I think you are about 50lbs over the capacity of that fan.

                Small fields filled with many sloughs mean you get more passes per fill😎

                About 20 acres or so per fill. Should have the Morris tank fixed next week which will make life easier
