Near Intersection of I-35 & I-90 Southern Mn. | As far as the tube goes, I had a trailer type auger that was showing wear as you mention. I was concerned that the tube was worn also. The tube on this auger was attached with bands and bolts that tightened the bands around the tube. Nothing was permanently welded to the tube. I was able to lay the auger down fully on the ground and loosen all the bands and rotate the tube a half turn.
It was quite a bit of labor but I was young at the time. I don't know if it was worth the effort but it worked out OK. |
