Hey all,
We mounted 2 more augers on the 47b. Here's a pic of the machine folded up for transport -
And here's a pic of it set up for work. The third auger moves light grain either into a gravity box or super sack. In this case the customer just wanted it piled on the ground. I think he regretted it after the fact.
I'm still learning the machine. This time I ran it 4 hours and emptied a box he said had 340 bushel in it. I nearly filled a box that holds 300 bushel, meaning 40ish bushel ended up in the chaff and light grain piles. If I calculated right and his numbers are right, I did 85 bushel per hour. My next upgrade will be a more useful pickup (Ford F-550 with 11 ft flatbed) and a dust collector to pull the dust and chaff off the top scalper screen.
