Subject: Loading semi through pit..need ideas (pics)


Bourbon, Indiana
I've dealt with this issue for enough years now and a few mishaps that I need to do something different. You can see in the pics that I have to run a 10" tube from the auger to the pit which goes to the leg than into the trucks. Biggest headache is we have to unhook the tube every time we go to move the truck. I've tried to come up with an easy way to remedy this but nothing I really like. Extending the 14" auger in the pit is out of the question. I've thought about using that flexible metal tubing but I'm not sure if it will stay in place with corn flowing down it, also can't seem to find anyone local that handles 10". Even cutting and putting two angles in the two won't really work, I'd still have to take the tube off every time to move.

Dump trailers are not as bad, hopper bottoms are a little more tricky.

Anyone have any better ideas here cuz I need some.

thanks alot
