i know its two years later but have you found a way to get it i sharp i use a worksharp field sharpener and has worked on all my knives exept this one i feel like it keeps getting duller when i sharpen it making it unusable

@@queball19 I can get it sharp but it doesn’t hold its edge as long as my benchmade. I don’t use anything fancy to sharpen it either, I just touch it up with a sharpening steel, just like the ones a chef would use 🤣

How is the Power controlled to advance the cars? It's not like coal where it's set at something like 2 mph. It's more like stop/start here.

2:17 what's the purpose of that little side tube? it looks like it's shooting out a small bit of grain every now and then. Is it like a drain system?

Overflow/surplus grain from the sampler (for grading) being returned

How many cars ,? 100 ? How long do they give you to get them all filled

@littlewingpsc27 2 ай бұрын

Does the fall protection actually keep you suspended in the air if you slip off the car or does it slowly lower you to the ground so you don't get hurt? Do you have to worry about dust explosions while working around cars like that? About how long does it take to load a rail car and how does the loader know when to stop filling the car? Do they just look and see when it is full or does each car get a specific measured weight of corn loaded? How do you advance the string of cars? Do you have a cable pull that moves the string forward as you fill them or do you use a small trackmobile?

Nice video. Just a tip for stowing your SRL: you should use a short rope tag line on the snap hook so the cable fully retracts into the SRL body when not in use. It'll prevent corn dust from accumulating on the extended cable and getting inside the body and potentially fowling up the inner workings.

@Plattipus 5 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching! You are correct, we stow them with a rope so they are fully retracted when we are done using.
