That is my worst nightmare. It usually takes me a couple of hours to grease that shaft on the 9500. Take off the cover in the grain tank, start combine, bump separator on a couple of times, crawl into grain tank and see if zerk is lined up, if lucky, grease it plenty. The other end has no good way. I usually end up extending the auger a little and then hang upside down over the top of the engine. Then, if that one isn't lined up (because they weren't installed the same on mine) I have to bump the separator again. Thank the good Lord for air grease guns because by that point the only thing I can still move is a pinkie to run the gun.
Luckily, because of the number of hours I put on it in wheat and beans, the combine mechanic said grease it good once a year. He also told me about a neighbor that never greased his. When the back joint flew apart it took apart a nice portion of the grain tank. They ended up using silicone and furnace ducting to piece it back together. Nothing he has lasts very long. That was possibly the worse "innovation" Deere had.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
