X9 PIP's? 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@gavinperry7237]

The payment plan on a new pc of equipment should be prorated taking into consideration what options & features we’re ACTUALLY INSTALLED & WORKING at time of delivery. Having to pay for features that may never get put to use prior to trade off is a JOKE

[@SomeTechGuy666]

That chain is probably an O Ring sealed chain. Like what is used on dirt bikes. On dirt bikes they last about 5x longer. But more expensive, but not by much.

[@michaelgriggs-lr9gh]

You're always informative!!! Pray your harvest goes well. 🙏

[@bcdieselsofficial]

Very informative! By the way, you were probably the funniest KZbinr I have ever watched. Thank you for all the laughs!

[@OldGuyAdventure]

When you were describing the feeder chain I thought about the Scott Oiler chain oiler for motorcycles. Might be an addition for combines to extend the life of chains.

[@claydoesvids]

Those alignment arrows on the feeder house lip and that head is just… marvelous. I’m putting some on mine this afternoon. My corn head has super tight tolerances for no reason whatsoever.

[@joescheller6680]

Good luck on harvest hope you have a good run without lot of breakdowns. Running close to ground cutting short crops can be a problem.

[@lcazier619]

Was told the turn buckle is going away next year. They are putting an actuator on that is controlled in cab. Also retrofit kits next year.

[@itz_lexiii_]

Better than the carriage bolts that would snap if you looked at them wrong. Glad JD actually did something about it instead of just having farmers suffer

[@falcovg2]

Yeah that seems to be a huge flaw for a piece of equipment that expensive.

[@falcovg2]

​@Landon-si5xc If a god existed those headers wouldn't have had those turnbuckles. Why do you nutjobs always post your petty attempt at convincing people to believe your bullshit under a video that has plenty of evidence to the contrary?

We took the bottom step with the two brackets and just used gravel conveyer belting with the bottom step, can paint it black or green, sturdy enough but also as some give.

So the "green lighting" doesn't include leak checks? That O-ring leak you showed seems pretty hard to miss!

[@KALI1080]

If they don’t have a header to run with the combine nothing there gets touched. They aren’t going to go grab a random header to run on it either.

[@jordantschetter1151]

Well buddy I wish you lots of luck with harvest..hope all goes well..I've heard the 21 or 22 x9s got lots of issues like the whole frame of it cracking....

[@lnpipeline3306]

Crazy. I can remember the day when you bought a new piece of equipment, and if you maintained it, it would give you 10000-15000 trouble free hours. Then you would trade it for another new machine. Product Improvements? This scht should be sorted out before they even start sending machines down the assembly line. I just added another tractor to our fleet built in ‘91. It will most definitely give us less troubles than anything new.

[@KevinChristiansen-i2q]

Great video Mike

[@falcovg2]

I'm sure JD will compensate you for screwing you out of the camera's. I'm sure they'll be ashamed of themselves for delivering a product that costs over half a million that misses features. Haha just kidding. Seems to be fitting the pattern, if you're lucky they don't charge you the inflation cost increase once they install them in a year or 2. P.S. Also got to love the ladder design, who doesn't want to disable their emergency exit?

[@elizabethliska5377]

Closer to 1 million $$

[@paulsimpson.417]

That weld !

[@timgear9892]

Same here on the cameras. My '22 S770 Hillco came with B.O. cameras. Dealer gave me the option of refund my money for the option, and when they came in, pay the new price to get installed,,,or simply run the '22 crop, and when they come in they would install no charge (which I did)... They installed them last week! Got the gas charged springs loaded ladder that only half raises up. Told the service guy he needed to add more gas in the springs.. Still waiting for a fix on that. Never got a free green light, so, never took it back for any PIPs. Disappointed in Deere mega dealer combine service and feel they cater to the big customers.

[@jackbannock3458]

They totally cater to big farmers. We run some deere stuff and being a smaller farmer we always take a back seat getting stuff foxed or getting parts ordered

Mike you can also buy a hinged draper with that hydra-flex cutterbar they sell both options

[@Slide8918]

He mentioned those in the deere vs honey bee header video, basically he said the price for the header you're talking about was more than he was willing to spend. I believe he said it was like almost the same price as the S6 they just bought

John Deere is smart guaranteed chain replacement

[@patronpatron9749]

If you rest you're header on the ground then you can turn it by hand makes it a little easier

[@mikemitchell2554]

True but harder on the back 😆

[@leonarddutch5267]

Hi Mike. I was wondering, what do you think about the stripper header. With the drought and all to have a longer straw to catch more snow and dew to have more water in the ground. Love your work, keep it up.

[@jamieshields9521]

Mike I have wonder why X9 concaves covers are metal plate instead been plastic like on older model S780? Hope PIPs get sorted out👍

[@alviney5138]

good good / always like the product and PIP reviews / thank you

[@justinemagson1767]

Regarding that blown seal on the coupler, if you either put the combine in highway mode or turn it off completely you’ll never blow one of those seals again. Took 25 years for someone to tell me that.

[@chadhajec4031]

Really hoping you'd do a review of the HD50F as a whole, pros and cons. Fingers crossed!

[@Bomokbrody246]

I’ve seen a few fellas out there install rubber on the bottom 2 steps of the ladder. Probably old conveyor belt or something.

[@mikerichter4270]

Hey Mike I got a question to ask an I know it has probably been discussed before but in the type of drought conditions you guys have had on the south farm.. would it be feasible to run a shellbourne stripper head instead of straight cutting the crop to leave the straw stem to help hold in the snow pack in the winter for prolonged ground moisture in the early to mid spring..

[@brianhofer696]

That turn bucket would be horrible I really it like the option where I can go from rigid to flex whenever I feel like it in the cab

[@themoo908]

I work for Jd, y’all may be about to have some electrical issues. Also, I’m not sure what PIN range yours is but, some are having weak weld issues in the rear and could literally buckle.

[@KALI1080]

Does the fix for that involve removing the shoe frames from inside and a bunch of drilling and welding?

[@themoo908]

Yes, but, riveting, instead of welding, will also had the needed strength to them. Roughly 200 or so, holes need to be drilled.

They’ll just end up doing what they did with most of the other pieces of equipment manufactured by CNH. New Holland combines were the last solely new Holland product offered by CNH but now that Case IH combines need more capacity they’ll take the easy route and slap some red paint on a new Holland

[@crandonborth]

@@clearskiesranch1362 Honestly no… they will go the Claas route and build a twin rotor with a pre thrashing cylinder before the rotors.

@clearskiesranch1362 and probably last half as long. As for the chevron delo, it was a sticker on the frame of a newer Kenworth W900L with the X15 Cummins 565. It said that was the preferred oil from the factory.

[@mikemitchell2554]

@@andrewscott5986 oh I didn't know that, very interesting thankyou!

[@KALI1080]

⁠@@andrewscott5986the change in oil viscosity is due to early 13.6L engines having timing gear train backlash set too tight at the factory. Temporary fix is to change to thinner oil and advise operators to fully warm up engine before going full load. There is going to be a PIP to adjust the backlash but the timing gears are on the back of the engine so it is an engine out job. The head being starved of oil is unlikely. They use a hydraulic lash adjuster on the 13.6l now and some of the lash adjusters are failing and causing a ticking valve train.

[@KALI1080]

That’s likely due to the engine timing geartrain backlash being too tight. There is going to be a PIP to set the geartrain backlash properly. Geartrain on these engines is at the rear of the engine on these so the engine needs to come out for that job.
