[@cnnw3929]

I watch videos like these, and it brings back a lot of memories of old friends who I would join, during harvest. One who was especially close, had a John Deere 4400, back in 1978. He is part of the reason I like combines so much. But these days, I don't get much access to them, if any at all. Makes me wish I can somehow jump back in, and maybe even gain the privilege of owning and operating one.

Those Class machines are absolutely amazing in small grains. They will pretty much walk all over anything in the same hp class in crops like canola due to the immense sieve area. And the ability to adjust thrashing and separation independently. Something single rotors struggle with. Only downfall is they are a hard sell to guys that are used to single rotor machines because they seem so complex.

[@discoverykai1547]

Your positive attitude is truly infectious.

[@dhansel4835]

Thanks.... You have some nice weather for a change. People don't realize just what it takes to feed the nation and world. The AG engineers are watching this to see what they can do to make their combines better than the competition.

[@discoverykai1547]

You have a remarkable ability to distill complex ideas into simple terms.

[@iricecom]

I love the 760 Lexion. I ran 1 for 2 seasons here in the CA rice harvest. That machine can't be beat for its throughput, and also the fact that you can see what is going through the return elevator from the cab. With almost all separator functions being able to be changed on the fly. Plus the fact you can take small grain samples going into the bin on the fly. You simply can't beat the separator adjustments. Enough said.

[@georgecurious2248]

To the OP....you have a real smart channel. You take different machines and put them through real world situations. To me that is way better than any brochure, salesman, or manufactures' video. I like your commentary on the pros and cons of the different machines. It actually is very informative. I have bought machinery that it felt like I was operating an alien spaceship. I've also had machinery that fell very short of expectations. I hope the dealers realize what a resource they have with you. It probably wouldn't work to well for your situation and of course you are in an exclusive area (in relation to the whole country) but do some commentary on critical aspects of the dealers follow up service. Choosing a machine can be as important as choosing a dealer. Thanks for your efforts

There was lots of times the auger was left full when you couldn’t get everything into the wagon. Did this on all our combines 95, 6600,7720,9500. Never had any problems.

[@andrewcox2739]

Great episode. I think ur battery disconnect problem can be fixed by running the combine for a couple hours and then turning the disconnect off. The combine will continue to run as normal it just won’t charge the battery at that point so before u shut it off for the night you will have to reconnect it. We have to do this a lot in the aviation world with support equipment. If you don’t it causes weird things to happen.
