Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

Some of these scales a person gets on are a pain. Case in point, where I am hauling now have to do a number of pull ups to get on it. That's to get on unloaded and loaded. There are many like this but usually smaller elevators. The terminal elevators are no problem.

 

Yep, has a 230 inch wheelbase. Still not short enough in some places.

 

RIP Electric Tarp Motor...My electric tarp motor gave out today. Yes, I know I'm lazy but it saves my shoulders. Had it a year and is supposed to have 5 year warranty, we'll see when I talk to trailer place.

Supposed to be able to roll if manually if motor gives out. Give it a try tonight or in the morning. Believe have to take bolt out by motor and then put handle back on.

 

Give yourself another fifteen years a lot of things will start to hurt. I have seen where you can open the hoppers with a switch. I kinda enjoy opening the hoppers unless they freeze shut.

 

Esclipse must be having some problems. There shouldn't be any reason for sitting around that much.

Wonder if Pharm is having the same problems?
