We run two of em since 2007,they are pretty much bullet proof.Never had issues with grain being caught in the front.

 

X2 although I can't speak of longevity like Jaydee since we haven't had it very long.

One thing I have been wondering can you unload say wheat with the gate on the cart wide open or will you take out a shear pin? I have taken it to 4 out of 6 but no further for fear of a big mess. This is with PTO I wasn't able to get much past 3 with the hydraulic motor before it slowed down or stopped.

 

Depends on the moisture.Run it most of the time wide open.

 

K thanks Jaydee.

 

thanks for the info i will be using a 9430 on cart so i will go hyd motor looking forward to the bigger cart

 

Don't run the gate wide open with a hyd motor it will stall, I stayed around 3-3.5. Also don't hook the hyd for the drive to ports 3&4 if you have high flow hydraulics and if you do call me I have another hyd motor for you.

 

I think you would have the same issues but you could hook it to any ports you like. 2 pressure and 2 returns both to the hydraulic outlets. You could set up the return different but probably not needed.

 

Hydraulic Drive Reduces Unloading Rate

If you choose the Hydraulic Drive for the unloading auger, be prepared for an unloading rate that is only 65% to 75% of the PTO unloading rate in bu / minute
