Well, as these things go it was inevitable that things will break down. In the middle of cherry harvest one part of the tree shaker has broken down. In this case it is a blown fitting on a hydraulic hose and has been rolled into our shop for (hopefully) a quick repair. Until it is repaired the cherry harvest has stopped, the tractors that pull the equipment and the crews that man the equipment must now wait for the repairs to be done. Added to this is the time that it will take to transport and reposition the shaker in the orchard, which adds to the downtime.
