We won't get on the field if it is too wet. But, in the spring, summer and fall, we usually need only a day or 2 after a rain, and it will be dry enough to work.
Thank the Lord that you, your employees and none of your equipment was damaged. Did someone do something stupid on the interstate ahead of you all and cause a chain reaction?
They sent 2 tow trucks to pull him out. They just got him back on the road and he was able to drive away without any damage.
Yes, I'm sure it was something stupid. It looks like someone slowed down because of heavy rain, and the vehicles behind them did now slow down enough. I don't know who was the stupid one. The one that slowed too much, or the one behind them that didn't slow enough.
It's a 2" line from the city. Normal psi is about 50 to 60. This system has 6 zones with either 5 or 6 rotors on each zone.
What were the symptoms of the bearing going out? Are you going to do the repair yourself? If so can you post pictures? Thanks!
The symptom was oil all over the front tire. Yes I plan to do the work myself. I have done it already at least 4 times on my L5740. Here is a link to a thread I started on the L5740 back in 2015 when it first happened.

I can't speak for everybody but it seems like it's always something, I cherish the days that everything goes smooth.
I would say it's no different than any other business. The more you use it, the more it breaks. And we have been busy this summer. I try to keep my equipment updated as much as I can, but some things just get old and worn out....Kind of like me...
