Aermotor bent wheel.

Post by hedgerow »

Had a storm come threw early Saturday morning with 92 MPH wind and bend the wheel on one of my 602 Aermotor windmills. Anyone on here know anyone close to Lincoln Nebraska I could hire to take the gear box and wheel down. Its on a thirty foot tower.

I spoke with Loren Lockman. It doesn't look like he will be able to help. Any other ideas out there? With my health issues I can't deal much with heights. I guess if nothing else we will unbolt the tower and pull it down after harvest is done. Its next to a bean field. If someone wanted it I would give the complete windmill to them for taking it down.
