My dad had a #24 that he called a snapper. We had it mounted on a Super H. We always had a lot of trouble with it breaking down. If it wasn't a gathering chain it was bearings on the rollers. It was used when he bought it. The ducks and cattle loved that #24. They spent the rest of the fall eating the shelled corn off the ground. It picked fairly clean if the weather was damp, but when it got dry you brought in most of the field with the ear corn. My dad was very safety concious. He always shut off the machine before unplugging. He also never let us kids run the corn picker even later when he traded it off for a 2-PR pull type picker which was a wonderful machine. We even combined, but never ran the corn picker, because of all the neighbors who had lost hands and arms in corn pickers. Roger
