The only MF combine left is the Ideal and AGCO has decided to label them Fendt for NA. In the rest of the world you can get MF combines even the Ideal is badged MF. Merry Christmas everyone.
So the big reveal of the new T series is out I see. Big 🤪 improvements like an auger extension you can order from factory, rotor reverser, one side panel made out of 2, new decals T instead of a S . Did I miss anything? I honestly don’t know why they bothered, I keep hoping that they will make...
I get the need of combine power, but how does one afford more than one for less than 3-4000 acres per machine, plus the labor requirements and support equipment to make it efficient?? For the cost of these big machines, they should cover 10000 acres!!
The above combine was contemporary with the late 40 which was a true Oliver combine design and used till the Cockshutt combines appeared in around 63 with the 430 and 431 and the next year I think was the 525 specifically designed for the corn country followed by the 535 and 545 for corn heads while the 542 was still built for grain areas with ...
Is there any good fire suppression systems for combines out there. I am a little concerned about one of our operators, his combine dismount is a little slow if there is a fire. There is no way I will tell him no because he lives for the job so we make it happen for him.

The Insight is there for one of two purposes: 1) the head was converted to work with a 9x00/10 series combine. If this is what you have, you will need this, and more. 2) the head has (or had) Headsight sensors installed under the skids for operating in wheat/rye/oats, etc in rigid mode. The sensors are removed when operating in flex.
There's really no ONE "best" hillside combine. They are all very good, as are regular combines. Yes, Case-IH and Deere are the most popular in hillsiders, but that's just because they are two leading manufacturers of combines, period. Due to the rising cost of the hillside combines as opposed to their flatland counterparts, the manufacturers have all quit building their own hillside features ...
Ran a demo combine with the FD245 header and buddy wheels. Didn't know how to make them work properly on hillside and they gouged into the ground making the combine spin out and they rattled the combine as they rolled across the air drill rows.
