Manure Prop Keeps Lagoon Liquid
The 22-ft, long prop shaft mounts on a length of 3-in. sq. tubing riding on a chassis fitted with two small steel wheels. A pto shaft from an old Case combine drives the prop shaft which is made out of 1 1/4-in. dia. steel pipe mounted on four bearings.
Hoffman fashioned the prop itself out of three pieces of 10-in. wide 3/8-in. thick plate steel. The prop is 22 in. in dia. Requires at least a 60 hp. tractor with a 540 pto.
