SE ND
Knipco's is what some neighbors have set up, remember if your going to thaw it water will no doubt refreeze somewhere in the machine so once its out of the heat turn it on and leave it in gear for a long time.. auger and all. We pulled one in a heated shop for a few hours and chipped it out then ran the unload auger an hour later and everything went ok, next morning auger froze solid and had to vac out the grain tank and put a knipco up there to get it going. Beans in the snow is no fun, I feel your pain, just got done yesterday. If you can get it chipped out while still cold it might be worth doing to prevent anything else from thawing part way and freezing again.
