West Union, Illinois | bobnwil - This year, we are carrying 3 fire extinguishers in the combine and 1 in every tractor or truck which is in the field. if they are dry chemical about once a week take them off, turn them upside down, and smack them a few times with a rubber mallet. The powder tends to set up. We had a fire. Son in law grabbed the dry extinguisher, squeezed the handle and it went “Pfffft”.
Fortunately the combine came with a water extinguisher. |
How many field fires so far?
