Hello again.
Just got in from another summer of raising Wheat, Garbonzo's Peas etc. And am ready to go back to work fixing my Weiler. Noticed when I first ran it that it seemed fairly noisy. Isolated the motor and it runs quiet, head stock seems smooth also. It appears noise is generated in the intermediate gearbox. It has never been apart, seems tight and is full of fresh oil but still sounds like the bearings are dry.... smooth though. Was wondering if these gearboxes are generally noisy or if mine has a problem. CalG was kind enough to tell me how to operate it but I am a little worried about how it sounds.
