My M&S 125 bu. spreader broke a link when I attempted to unload a frozen-to-the-sides load. Pretty simple to fix with a repair link from TSC. I'd done this back on the farm on an old JD spreader so I knew just what to do. I also don't load it as much in the winter before emptying it now. A few years later I had a bearing seize and I snapped a link (loaded of course, in the winter again). I couldn't get the shaft out (it some how got bent) or get it free so I took it to the dealer (just about 6 miles down the road). When they inspected it the chain was very worn and I agreed that it needed a new one rather than constantly be repairing it as was likely to start happening. He said he could either get one right away or I could wait until they had a shipment come in where it could be included with no freight charge. I don't recall the difference in price but it was significant enough that I waited, and had it back within about 3 weeks with a new shaft and gear, bearing and apron chain. If I recall the whole job was just over $1,000, spreader cost about $4,500 in 2002.
