The diesel engines are the smokers in the group...some run alcohol, no smoke

 

We just got back. Next year it is running 14-16th. Theres a nice enough KOA campground 18 miles away near Perrysburg.

 

Yep. That GALOT tractor in the one vid is a superstock unlimited. They convert the diesel engines to burn alcohol.

 

I don't know about the pullers you referred to but the diesel tractors produce a lot of smoke under full power. Some upwards of 4000 hp.

 

Looking at weight ticket, I thought it took 6 minutes...lol...

 

Quite a tree!

 

I guess speed reading isn’t my thing, I just read it as loading.

Here are some pics anyway.

View from the side door up top, the center trap was open & the outside was open but the 2 middle traps wouldn’t open. I got them opened up after a I got the sweep auger going.



It’s a 36’ bin, 18’ from wall to center trap.

This rubber wheel it what drives the auger around the bin. Basically it just spins keeping the auger pushed into the corn pile.



The sweep is powered off the outside motor on for the horizontal auger under the bin, there is a transfer box in the center trap that sends power to the sweep. If all that gibberish makes sense.

 

Some bin floors are basically smooth no raised lips.

The bin I am cleaning out now has the slightly raised lips/ridges & doesn’t sweep well with a broom unless you are going with the “grain” of the ridges



The bin right next to it has a smoother floor, they are much easier to sweep out.

 

Makes sense to me. I helped my cuzn farm in the 80's. He had 4 bins, been inside cleaning them out many times.
