take the cab off its not hard.

I would rather deal with the heat than the dust, ran C2 with and without cab, just my experience.

take the winder glass out! that's a nice looking "K", looks just like mine!

For those who may be interested in my uncle's K here are more photos

i'd hafta look again, but I think the unload auger is the same too

it would be the lower sheave that would stick, the upper is hyd adjusted, the lower just moves in and out when the belt tightens and loosens. so it has to move or when the belt tightens it will stretch beyond it's limits and grenade! make sure the resivor is full, then let the combine sit and run at high speed a few minutes. (before starting pump 2 squirts of grease in the bottom sheave. the zerk is under and behind the sheave) go ahead and drive it, and use the variable speed lever. if the belt scatters, it's still his combine! the price should get cheaper then! a new belt I think is around $136.

only pump in (2) pumps of the grease gun into each.

replace the top zerk if you can

sometimes....a little money spent on your part on someone elses machine will save you lots of $$$$$

Well I talked to the guy this afternoon, and he refused my offer of $500, so the combine will continue to sit I guess. He had to call his uncle who owns 1/4 of it. (He owns half, his uncle owns 1/4, and his mom owns 1/4). His uncle said no. Oh well.
