Strategy:

  • List steps in order of duty – Power Cube to Tractor to CEB press
  • Assess capacity required and allocate tasks to 6 fabricators and local shop
  • List risks and recovery plans
  • Assess daily, before and after workday
  • Draw up personnel plan, detailed

Wheel Shafts

  • Cut 1-7/8" shafts to 28"
  • Cut 6" long collars from 2" pipe
  • Label collar and shaft, as these are paired up and can't be confused between shafts.
  • Drill 3/4" hole for wheel plate mounting through shaft and collar
    • Drill through collar and shaft at the same time
  • Weld on reinforcing nuts on collars
  • End drill 3.5" deep (on a lathe) the 1-3/8" receiver for 6-spline standard PTO shafting


Wheel Mounting Plates

  • Prepare plates, 4 per tractor - 8x10x1/2"
  • Download CAM files for wheel plates -[1]
  • Configure LinuxCNC
  • Torch out plates (or cut by hand)
  • Cut gussets - right angle triangles with 4" legs - 4 per wheel
  • Weld gussets onto plates

Hydraulic Motor Interface Plates

  • Prepare plates, 4 per tractor - 6x8x1/2"
  • Download CAM files for interface plates - []
  • Torch out plates (or cut by hand)
