So the Fergie must have been winding at about 1500 rpm to keep running. Hence the centrifuge.

When this old brute of a mixer dumped, the frame would get jammed inside another frame and require a pry bar to get it free.

Thanks for the pictures. They raise another question. If I couldn't get the thing high enough to dump into a wheelbarrow, that's the tractor's fault, right? The 3pt's last gasp was to try to lift the mixer one last time, then drop it in its tracks as I was driving. It hasn't worked since, and my mechanic says it's past fixing.

When it came time to return the borrowed mixer I ended up loading it onto my utility trailer by pulling it up the ramp with my golf cart and a 40 foot nylon tow rope.

Anybody want a Fergie with excellent sheet metal, 98% tires, tired valves and no pump?
