Well, for everyone else's comedic entertainment, I worked on the 9010 today. I ended up removing the flywheel to find that it was not a molded key buy a removable Woodruff... Long story short, after finding no way to adjust it I put it back together and tested it. Unfortunately I DIDN'T torque the flywheel nut down enough...

It came off after about three cuts and stopped cold when the flywheel made contact with the pickup. It looks like I will be getting a new key and nut and then making sure that nothing else bad happened in the process...

Coming off - yes. Going on - no. Lesson learned painfully.

Us townies are learning new lingo and picturing machinery in our heads with that remark.[emoji6]

048 going back together. Can't find the brake band. Maybe it was missing. Been too long for a geezer to remember.

I am plumb out of test log.[emoji20]

The grain wore thru the bottom of the grain tank, so we bolted liners in.

 

[67L36Driver]

Hmmmmm. So you call the hopper a tank.

Yes, corn has fine dust on it that is abrasive and wears holes in sheet steel. Wonderful.

6400 hours is a long spell, yes.

Most farmers trade every 2 years round here. This is owned by an older farmer that only has a few acres.

How do you get 6500 hours on a few acres? Pull with a donkey? Just asking.............. We had an international 101 to start. That would be a 50 (?) year old machine today. 10 foot header. a wee bit dusty.

 

[RVALUE]

I just re-read it. Owned by an older farmer........ My age no doubt.



Got it!

This combine was purchased used, that's why so many hours on a 1991 combine.

A little hole isn't too bad until you shut down with grain in the tank.
