Just bought a Huskee 35 ton, based on the great feedback on this site. Much appreciate the dialogue on this forum.
If the plate on the wedge and the ibeam are both metal, then why does SpeeCo not recommend some type of lube between the two?
I would think that as soon as the wedge starts biting into the log, then some friction would naturally happen with the wedge plate and the beam or guide channel.
I'm thinking any type of lubricant could only help reduce wear - Am I off on this?
If anyone else is lubing the beam, what are you using?
