When our caves got to be so old I never had to shake up or spread a bale of straw. All nine spring calves would torment the bale with their heads and their kicking feet flying. It was nice of them to help spread the straw around evenly. Thanks for showing your part. Enjoyed it.

You talk of morning and evening chores. What time would those be? I’m assuming they’re both in the dark.

Hi K&R! I've been waiting to see that door open,thanks! One thought, however minor, can the door cylinders be hung the other way so the door isn't lifting the barrel full of oil , making less work for the hydraulics?
@lynwessel24714 күн бұрын
That doesn't matter much, but if they were installed the other way you wouldn't need extra hose hanging there because that part wouldn't move when you open the doors. Thats the way my Powerlift door is set up.

Kevin and Sydney, you really need to run some two ply wood braces from the bottom cord of the rafters up to the top cord of the rafters through the power door. It will help transfer the forces through the roof and into the sidewalls.

Well…technically, if the fitting between the pressure valve and the cylinder blew out, the hydraulic oil would leak out of the cylinder letting the door down.
@lynwessel24714 күн бұрын
The lock valves are on the cylinders. They need full pressure applied to open. If the cylinders cant push oil out they cant go down. My Powerlift door just has restrictors at the cylinder ports so if something blew they would lower slowly. Lock valve cylinders is a good idea.

Nothing like milking and feeding on Christmas Eve/Day. I swear the cows were more serene and easier to work with. Can't say the same for silo unloaders...😂😂
