"The adjustable height wheel adjusters still both hanging in the shed. I assume they were removed for transport." Could you possibly be referring to the two transport wheels which were actually use for the transport of the machine? The way I visually interpreted your remark was in reference to the two steel wheels that were attached only when transporting the machine either on the road or through narrow gates and finally used to place the machine in the shed. One was attached to the rear of the machine at the operators end of the grain platform and the other was attached to the front of the machine directly across from it. Then, the tongue was removed and placed under the grain platform perpendicular to the direction depicted above. The "grain wheel" was raised up to accomodate this. Then, either horses or tractor was hooked up and machine was backed up to allow the wheels to elevate the machine to get the "bull wheel" off the ground. The transport wheels were then locked in place and away we went. Narrower than before. (;>)) P.S. We had two tongues for ours. One short for tractor use and one long for horses.
