Yep,doing the pre harvest inspection,adjustments,repairs to the 1480 combine. Noticed the right hand brake was out of adjustment,tried to adjust the brake and found the adjustment used up.Said OK,got to put new brake discs in there,opened the brake housing and found oil in the dry brake housing. OK,got to drain the trans oil to replace that leaky brake seal,removed the trans drain plug and found it mostly blocked by BIG chunks of metal :(. OK trans bearing/bearings are out. OK,trans has to come out to replace bearing/bearings. Replaced bearings,seals,brake discs and got the trans back in. All works like new,and glad I found that problem BEFORE harvest. The good news was I got it fixed in plenty of time for harvest,instead of having to repair/replace a destroyed transmission in the best harvest weather.
