Owen always does a good job of explaining "how stuff works". I was about to get into that discussion but saw his explanation. That heavy draw of the pull in winding, although it is of short duration, puts a lot of strain on the starter switch, safety switch, and wiring all down the line. That is why a lot of applications use a relay to carry the heavy load and starter switch to trigger relay. I did have one that was "machine gunning" many years ago. After going through the starter customer had brought in, it still did same thing. A trip out to the farm showed that safety switch was the problem. That surprised me but new switch cured it. That is not the end of the story though. Farmer had some cobbled up inner tubes on top of battery and I did not get them all back in the correct place. He comes into his shed the next day and tractor is starting on fire in wiring. He quickly unhooked battery but it had some lot of wiring damage. End of story is, that he got a whole new wiring job from us at our insurance co. expense. We were just glad he caught it before it burned down his whole shed and equipment. Some one was looking out for me I guess.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
