few action shots

Here are some action shots that I promised. Sorry these arent the best but its all I could get.






Harvest didnt go real bad, had alot of problems with the cat, some minor breaks and two majors. It had a bearing out on the shaker drive that the dealer and we didnt catch that caused some major damage. Then the wobble box went out, because supposedly the dealer had check it and evidentlly hadnt. Had a couple of belts, some bolts on the flexhead and a computer failure were the minor stuff. Wheat averaged around 55 which with the double crop I didnt think was all that bad. Test weights were the surprising thing, most ran 61-63. I did get stuck the last day we ran, sorry no pics, didnt think it was a good time to pull out a camera. Took a 8630 to pull it out and it barelly got the job done. Anyway its in the books. Thanks for lookin, Dustin

Nice pics. For being a rotary the Lexion seems to leave some nice straw.

thanks guys. Yeah I gotter stuck, big time, the last day we cut, as a matter of fact it was about 3 hours before those pics. Had to call a neighbor to get his 8630 and it took about 100ft of cable to get the tractor to dry ground. Really bad thing was I called the shop foreman from the shop we bought it from to ask him how the heck we were supposed to pull it and he said it was only the second time he had ever heard of one being stuck. He said whatever we did not to pull it by the back axle hence the long cable to tie to the front axle to be able to pull it out forward, oh well lesson learned. Sorry, no pics, the camera was in my pickup but with dad ready to blow his stack I didnt think it was a good time to take pics. The straw wasnt toooo bad, of course that field was late in the day, it was hot and the wheat was real dry. I dont think I would want to try and twine tie it but the net wrap holds it together you just have to bale early in the morning with a dew or our 568 wouldnt hardly pick it up. Not anywhere as good of straw quality as a walker machine but just slightly better than the true rotories Ive baled behind.
