Manure spreader maintence 101

This is our 71 year old manure spreader. We were so busy caring for our rescued animals that we neglected this important equipment. This is a International Harvester Farmall. Only one person had the knowledge to repair it

He left simple instructions for the care and maintenance of this old workhorse.

I had never heard of a zerk. This machine has 12!

Some zerks are easy to find.

Some are hidden and hard to reach.

Even the pull-truck dash has instructions.

This is Chuck, the author of our "Maintenance 101 for Dummies". With his help we hope to be able to spread lots of manure for a very long time. THANKS Chuck!
