TIL I was running my cutterhead suction too close to the bottom for 8 years

An old timer in Louisiana pointed out my discharge was running clear half the time and told me to back off the draghead by 3 feet, and suddenly I was pulling twice the solids per hour, has anyone else had a 'why didn't I try that sooner' moment with their ladder angle?

Hold on, run the discharge clear half the time and just never thought to lift the draghead? That's wild, I'd be kicking myself for eight years of lost production.

Figure out how many truckloads you burned through first.
