Well if he had a real High Lift Coal truck instead of a Drump Truck He would of not had any problem chuting the coal indjackman wrote:I have to give Ron from Bethlehem a double-A+ for effort. Showed up today with 2 tons, looked at the bin and said "no problem!". 30 minutes later of jockeying & blocking the truck around to get the box to go up straight just didn't have enough angle to get it into the bin. Even he was suprised - truck sure looked level but soon as the bed went up it tilted a few degrees to the low side. Being the first load off didn't help either, all that weight in the box.
So now I've got 2 tons of nut/pea mix on the front lawn
Nice evenly sized stuff tho, very clean.
He does not have a Auger Feed on that Truck .
