Let's Fire up this Dryer!

[@brushcrawler8612]

The dryer's owners manual probably has some helpful information 😂

[@macster5187]

The manuals for that series I've seen are a little overwhelming. You really would prefer to have a local dealer setup on the first go round, if possible, for all the little details of configuration/timers/ rates... But if you're starting from a working configuration and trying to troubleshoot a new fault condition they're pretty detailed on the documentation. I work with two like this series and one older calc-u-dry based. Pretty good units.

[@jetegtmeier71]

that fan is going to vibrate itself apart

[@liamgoetz2890]

Taken off lots of low 20s in southwest Ontario and we dried it, it’ll almost never get dry enough before it sprouts you can leave it in a bin for 2 days for sure without much issue 3 you start getting more clumping

[@BillStecik]

LOL Just like a boy learning to farm all over again . Welcome to the north central

[@patrickburgmeier7902]

Put dry grain in the dryer is easiest way to get the dryer moisture profile right. Only use about 175 degree heat. The operator Manuel should have chart or guidelines to use. The plenum shaking is normal. It will last many years. Clean the Dryer out good when you are done.

[@williamshultz3598]

You have dust ore dirt in the fan vanes from sitting throwing it out of balance. It will not last long.

[@motormech1h343]

Ah yes they definitely need to fix that before running it

[@wallyyuriy8912]

Typical for the neighbor to fire up when they see one combine out there. 😂😂

[@jdrogers8720]

Guys down here build a shed roof over there driers the sheds had a coupalow (sp) style roof to vent the heat and have like half sides from the top down half way .They dry in the rain.

[@P_Rund1952]

Welcome to the world of handling and processing wet grain! Yes you can dry in the rain, it will take more fuel and probably a longer drying cycle but here in the midwest US corn gets dried in the rain more often than we would like. You definitely don't want to leave wet wheat in that bin, once it gets hot and sticky you will have a mess. Do you have an interlock between your dryer and fill auger to shut it off when dryer is full? I didn't hear any mention of that. Cutting that down wheat looks a lot like cutting beans that are down, low and slow.

[@Ole_CornPop]

You know what it feels like living in South Carolina when standing next to the dryer. 😂

[@chrisgittins6856]

Being farmer in England I'm amazed to see such disregard to safety with PTO shafts and auger pickups with no grill.

[@jone8626]

Doubt it's supposed to vibrate like that at 9:04 Something is wrong.

[@jimpolk]

I like the look of that dryer

[@scottkaercher1733]

You can dry while it rains cause once its dried it goes straight in the bin and run your bin fan also.

[@OOpSjm]

That dryer fan is going to grenade itself before end of harvest

[@BB-sq2vj]

You need more than one wet bin so you can run a lot of bushels in and let it dry overnight

[@seansweeney145]

Didn't we solve the wheat falling over problem a long time ago, someone even got a nobel prize for it. Why does it seem that everyone's wheat is falling over this year and the yields are not over the top

[@ThePepeOne]

The north farm yard sure has come a long way, since you started 3yrs ago. Still hoping to see the day you do some harvesting in another shade of green!! 😉😊

[@MrTrashmasterfx]

You mean light green with with stripes and res lettering ?

[@elizabethliska5377]

Your father in law can probably answer most of your grain drying questions as he farms in that area also.

[@JS-1983]

Good afternoon... 😄 (i'm from Finland)

[@farmerlamb2372]

Moi!

[@ghostrider7688]

Great yields what a blessing Praise God 🙌🏽 Happy days Mike . Delighted for you

[@bobwest2807]

Hi Mike. From past experience, with the wet and flat wheat, you will need to check that the falling number doesn't get to low and down grade the rest of the wheat in the bin.

[@jackbannock3458]

Most of the wheat around here has low falling number this year, I swear they do it on purpose

[@kevinbisschop7713]

Was that a mouse in the hopper at 10:45-48? Little buddy didn’t know what was going on!!!

[@7rixee]

1. Does it matter which end first the crop goes in a rotary combine? 2. Is the header almost too wide for a thick crop like that, esp lodging? 3. Hope you had a great harvest.

[@darrylpaulhus3069]

Always head first is the preferred way in the combine. Width is fine just have to slow down a bit.

[@douglaskoonce2097]

Mike, could you put a smaller header on the X9? Like a 35-40 footer? Would it allow you to go normal cutting speeds, since your pushing less material thru a higher horsepower machine? Just curious. I didn’t think you could cut less across the Draper bar, because it would push over on the less material side. Wondering if my logic is correct?

[@fredericdelage1542]

Salut Mike magnifique vidéo et cilo à seche-linge et les moissonneuse batteuse et les coupes sont bien 😂😮😅😊

[@carlfalt174]

Canola can sit in swath for another 2-3 weeks yet.

[@thersbugb7362]

could you show us how much wasted wheat you get out the back of the combine when the wheat is like this due to wind etc.

[@jackbannock3458]

If his X9 is like our neighbors and even the Claas, the fields will be green in 10 days. When it's that wet they need to do a Shurgain drop pan.

[@Machines85]

Good job

[@STONEDay]

Those poor bearings.

[@jameswells5617]

Any propane dealer will tell you, Please dry in the rain ! WHERE is Ernie ?

[@elizabethliska5377]

It was in the background when he was filming around the dryer.

[@7rixee]

Think a squirt of CCC might fix the lodging? Bet you never did that in the south either 😂❤

[@stevenfetter4156]

it sure seems like the north farm gives ya better yields. probably darker soil

[@happycanayjian1582]

*moisture, definitely moisture, coupled with better quality/deeper topsoil. Less sun and heat units, though.

[@RyanHeck-im2gy]

Still would like to see a claas 88 or 8900 in those big yields and or a AF11

[@jmazoso]

Welker Farms tested an AF11, its ridiculous. 25 to 30 bushel wheat combining at 13 mph, just donest look right.

[@JohnDeere8370r]

Why are you running in batch mode and a continuous?

[@DWRebell]

😅 why is the dryer so small? you have abig operation going on everything else.

[@Northern_Farmer]

This is on thr north farm

[@OOpSjm]

Typically your leaving it in the field to dry down. Its a when needed piece of equipment.

[@recklessbehaviour01]

Morning

[@machineryworking4589]

[@christianjfink]

Speaking of new holland: you’re gonna review a CR11 or AF11? Or maybe even better: the Lexion8900? 😂

[@rvhome5599]

Welkers did a review of the new AF 11

[@ado1541]

@@rvhome5599welkers got payed to

[@alanlaub4890]

Any company that sells this man anything without forcing him to show competency of operation does so at its own peril.

[@case1020]

I have a question Mike. Why do you drive so slow combining? Surely the X9 can handle it at more than 2.5 mph right?

[@happycanayjian1582]

It’s lodged in many cases, and the material is often way too green/moist/tough. He’d be able to go much faster, on average, down at the south farm.

[@joescheller6680]

Dont go too wet in the hopper bin it might bridge up not flow.

[@7rixee]

Does it really in a bin that wide, unless it sits for a week?

[@Saunis]

Wheat over 35% moisture is the bad... that thing just wont flow. 😅

[@daveschwerdtfeger7842]

👋😊

[@williamshultz3598]

Why is the field beside you standing and stripes in your field standing

[@jackbannock3458]

His is wheat that's lodged, and the one across the road is barley, which is shorter and barley usually never goes down.

[@Northern_Farmer]

@@jackbannock3458 I beg you differ....barley will most certainly go down

[@jackbannock3458]

@Northern_Farmer can't say I've ever had our barley go down bad, and if it did it was minor compared to wheat or oats.

[@Northern_Farmer]

@@jackbannock3458 if it was a good rain year...ours was flat
