Ok took a little too long to get both barns cleaned today. Being about -5 F with -25 F wind chill. Both barn cleaners were as stubborn as could be to do their daily duties. In the process things started to freeze in the spreader. By the time I got to the field to spread, couldn't get the door to open. Whacked at it with a sledge for till I was blue and it finnaly opened. Only to reveal that the manure was frozen on the inside. I whacked at that with a bar to try to punch a hole with no luck. I have it backed in the shop with the heat on right now, which in this weather it might make 40 degrees F. This is a Gehl 1312 V-type manure spreader any thoughts or ideas that wont get the fire dept here will be appreciated.
This is how I found it this morning.
