A friend of mine has a 1986 or so Danuser G20/40 with 9" and 18" augers. The flights are fine but both points and cutting edges on both need replacing. The auger sounds fine while running but is in poor condition due to sitting outside for the past 23 plus years. The unit will need the following parts to make it not only safe but dig again. The 9" just sat 3" down and spun without digging when I tried it out.
* New Points and gutting edges
* New safety guard for output shaft
* New drive shaft cover ( Gone , gone ,gone)
* PTO connector collar tractor end or new spring lock rebuild kit
* Lift extension for more final height during transport
* Media blasted, primed and painted
This unit is rusty and neglected everything was hard to get loose, had to spay down with WD-40 to get stuff free and it still took some time. Both augers were buried in the dirt about 8" down and the points are rusted to crap. I hope I can heat them and unscrew them or the augers aren't worth a darn. So what would be a fair price taking into acount that if the augers can be fixed I'm looking at approximately $250.00 to $400.00 additional in parts and that doesn't include blasting and paint, plus what ever the unit should sell for. Give me some thoughts please everyone has always been helpful in the past. Thanks Mark
