Tips for getting the most out of this manual

Keep this manual in a safe place!

Digital files seem to have a habit of getting lost exactly when you need them most. To ensure
that you don’t accidentally delete or misplace this file here are some tips you should follow:

• Immediately after downloading your manual (i.e. now) it’s a good idea to save this file in
a place you will remember. We recommend putting it in a folder. To make a new folder
in Windows just right click -> New -> Folder. Name the folder something like Digital
Manuals, Tractor Manual, etc.
• Once you have a folder for this file, go to File -> Save As… Now save the manual file to
the folder you created. If you want, rename the file to something you will remember.
We recommend including the model number (this is important in case you forget where
you saved this file on your computer).

Remember: If you have put this file in a safe place on your computer and are unable to find
it again the following year, try Windows search feature: Start ->Search. Type in the model
number or another keyword that you know is in the file name.

Quick Search
If you are looking for something specific in this manual, you are in luck; All our manuals
are searchable! Just press CTR + F and type in what you are looking for. Some things to
remember when using the quick search feature:

• Your search won’t be 100 percent accurate. The software we use to make the
text readable might confuse an “I” with an “l” (L and I ) or a smudge on the paper
might have made the text unreadable by the software.
• Quick search will only search the exact words you type into the search bar in the
exact order you put them in. For example if you type in 20 millimeters when in
the manual it was written 20 mm your search will not work.

What you should get from this tip is that: Quick Search is not completely reliable. Be sure to
check the index and table of contents if you are getting no results when using the quick
search feature.
Printing

You will likely want to print out some or all of the pages from this manual to use in the
workshop.

Even if you want to print the whole manual you will probably not want to print out these first
couple of pages.

All of the printing options are located at File -> Print or CTRL + P. The most important options
are in the page range box. If you printed this manual now it’s likely that your printer would
automatically print every page. If you want to omit some pages or only print certain page
numbers you should to click the Pages button rather than All in the page range box. Now enter
the page numbers you wish to print, for example 2-40 or 18-22.

If you are planning to print only a certain section of pages be sure to use the page numbers
that are shown on the toolbar and not the page number shown on the actual page.

If you are planning to print this entire manual it is recommended that you print on both
sides of the paper. It looks nicer and you use half as much paper. Some printers have
duplex printing where the printer can automatically print on both sides. If your printer
doesn’t have duplexing capabilities it will take more work. First you need to print off the
odd pages. To do this select odd pages only in the print setup. Before you start to print, we
recommend you label the different sides of the first sheet in your paper tray because
depending on your printer it may be hard to figure out which way to correctly put the paper.
Once you have printed out the odd pages just flip the stack of papers around according to
the markings you made earlier and print the even side. Then put it in a binder, folder etc

SAFETY
Understand that your safety and the safety of other persons is measured by how you
service, and operate this machine. Know the positions and operations of all controls
before you try to operate them. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK ALL CONTROLS IN A SAFE
AREA BEFORE STARTING YOUR WORK.
READ THIS MANUAL COMPLETELY and make sure you understand the controls. All
equipment has a limit. Make sure you understand the speed, brakes, steering,
stability, and load characteristics of this machine before you start to operate it.

The safety information given in this manual does not replace safety codes, insurance
needs, federal, state and local laws. Make sure your machine has the correct
equipment needed as designated by the local laws and regulations.

The J I Case Company is continuing to work for your safety by making combines with
better protection and by giving these rules for safe operation.

A Safety Rules A
Operate controls only when seated in the operators seat. R137

A frequent cause of personal injury or death is persons falling off and being run over.
Do not permit others to ride. Only one person - the operator - should be on the
machine when it is in operation. RllSA

Engine can start with transmission in gear when neutral or safety start switch is
by-passed:
1. Do not connect across terminals on starter.
2. Attach a booster battery by connecting the positive terminal of the booster battery
to the "positive terminal" provided or to the positive terminal of the machine battery.
Connect the negative terminal of the booster battery to the "negative terminal"
provided or to the chassis of the machine.
Then use recommended starting procedures from the operators seat.
3. When necessary, repair electrical system components promptly so that "jump
starting" will not be attempted.
Machine run-away can cause injury or death to operator and bystanders.
Rl07C

9-11422
SAFETY/DECALS _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ 7

Travel speed should be such that complete control and machine stability is main-
tained at all times. Where possible, avoid operating near ditches, embankments and
holes. Reduce speed when turning, crossing slopes, and on rough, slick, or muddy
surfaces. R109A

Collision of high speed road traffic and slow moving machines can cause personal
injury or death. On roads, use flasher/lights according to local laws. Keep SMV
emblem visible. Pull over to let faster traffic pass. Slow down and signal before turning
off. R110D

Brake pedals must be locked together for road travel. This will insure uniform brake
application and maximum stopping ability. R112

Never operate the engine in a closed building. Proper ventilation is required under all
circumstances. R142

Never refuel the machine when the engine is hot or running. Never smoke while re-
fueling.
R139B

Check and service cooling system according to maintenance instructions.


Hot coolant can spray out if radiator cap is removed while system is hot. To remove
radiator cap, let system cool, turn to first notch, then wait until all pressure is released.
Scalding can result from fast removal of radiator cap. R141A

Hydraulic oil or diesel fuel leaking under pressure can penetrate the skin and cause
infection or other injury.
To Prevent Personal Injury:
Relieve all pressure, before disconnecting fluid lines.
Before applying pressure, make sure all connections are tight and components are in
good condition.
Never use your hand to check for suspected leaks under pressure.
Use a piece of cardboard or wood for this purpose.
If injured by leaking fluid, see your doctor immediately. R149A

Battery explosion and/or damage to electrical components can result from improper
connection of booster batteries or charger. Connect positive to positive and negative
to negative. Externally, battery acid can cause burns and blindness, and taken inter-
nally is poison. R146

It is good practice to carry a fire extinguisher on the machine. Be sure that the
extinguisher is properly maintained and be familiar with its proper use.
R102A

DIGITAL TACHOMETER

This digital tachometer is microprocessor controlled and uses an LED four digit
readout with a fifth alpha character to display each of four selectable speeds.

1. DISPLAY - The display will function whenever the key is in the ON position.

2. TOUCH SWITCH SELECTOR - By means of four touch switches on the face of the
digital tachometer, the operator can select engine RPM, rotor RPM, fan RPM or
vehicle speed (MPH or km/h) to be displayed. The alpha character displayed with
the speed is E, R, F or S respectively, to identify the speed being displayed.
Brightness of the display and backlighting can be varied by the operator using the
Dimmer Control.

3. SPEED CALIBRATION - The digital tachometer contains adjustment to recalibrate


ground speed for various tire sizes.

4. ENGINE ALARM ADJUSTMENT - An alarm function with an adjustable set point


tells the operator when engine speed falls below the set point during the harvesting
operation.

5. ENGINE HOURS - Engine hours will be recorded when the engine is running
whether the key is in the ON or OFF position.

INSTRUMENTS/CONTROLS _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ 33

Operation
When the key switch is turned ON, all segments of the display illuminate for one
second as a test. If all the segments are not illuminated, see your dealer.

After one second, the display changes to read 000 and then becomes blank. This
indicates that the digital tachometer is now in the calibration mode. In this mode, the
ENGINE RPM alarm setting can be adjusted and the drive tire loaded radius setting
for the SPEED display can be adjusted.

When the engine is started, the digital tachometer display will show the engine RPM
followed by an E. Select the other functions as follows:

FAN RPM - When this switch is pressed, the fan speed will show in the display
followed by an F.

ROTOR RPM - When this switch is pressed, the rotor speed will show in the display
followed by an R.

SPEED - When this switch is pressed, the vehicle speed in MPH followed by an Swill
show in the display.

NOTE: The digital tachometer can be set to show the vehicle speed in km/h. See your
dealer for instructions to make this setting.

ENGINE RPM - When this switch is pressed, the display will again show the engine
RPM followed by an E.
ENGINE ALARM - When the engine RPM drops below the level set in the digital
tachometer, but is still above 2000 RPM, the audible alarm will sound and the
character on the right of the display will illuminate on and off. The engine RPM alarm
will sound any time the engine RPM drops below the set level, even when the display
is showing the fan speed, rotor speed or the vehicle speed.

NOTE: The separator switch must be in the ON position for the engine alarm function
to operate.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER

1. VOLTMETER - A voltmeter is used as a charging system indicator to check the


performance of the alternator and voltage regulator. Battery voltage is indicated by
turning the key switch to the ON position with the engine stopped and observing
the voltmeter reading. Check the alternator and voltage by allowing the engine to
operate at low idle and observing the indicated voltage on the voltmeter. Voltage
should be to the right, in the green zone, in all cases. If not, stop the engine and
check for the cause.

2. ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE

3. ENGINE OIL PRESSURE WARNING LAMP - If the engine oil pressure gauge
reading should drop to a pressure significantly below its normal pressure, to a
pressure in the red band on the gauge, and/or the indicator lamp flashes and the
audible signal alarm sounds, shutoff the engine and check the oil level in the crank-
case. Add oil if necessary to bring it to the proper level. Start the engine. If the
gauge still indicates the same low pressure, and/or the indicator lamp flashes and
the audible signal alarm sounds, do not operate the engine. See your dealer.

4. PARKING BRAKE INDICATOR LAMP - The parking brake indicator lamp flashes

If the indicator lamp still illuminates and the audible signal alarm sounds, see your
dealer.

8. COOLANT TEMPERATURE INDICATOR LAMP

9. COOLANT TEMPERATURE GAUGE - This gauge shows the temperature of the


coolant circulating through the engine.

Under normal operation, the pOinter should be in the green band. Never operate
the engine when the pOinter is in the red band, and/or the indicator lamp flashes
and the audible signal alarm sounds. If the pOinter fails to reach the green band
during normal operation, check the thermostat.

10. FUEL GAUGE - When the key switch is in the ON position, the fuel gauge
indicates the level of the fuel in the fuel tank.

NOTE: The indicator lamps come on each time the key switch is turned from the ON
position to the START position. Check to make sure the indicator lamps illuminate
each time when starting the engine. If an indicator lamp does not illuminate, check and
replace the bulb before running the engine. See the electrical section in this manual for

GRAIN SCAN MONITOR

The grain scan monitor, if equipped, consists of a control console and four grain
sensors. Two grain sensors are mounted toward the rear of the rotor cage and two
grain sensors are mounted on the rear comers of the chaffer sieve. The sensors
indicate the amount of grain loss during the harvesting operation. This information is
indicated on the console meter. The operator uses the grain loss information to
operate the combine at the most efficient speed with an acceptable amount of grain
loss.

1. SENSOR SWITCH - The four position switch operates as follows:


OFF - All power to the grain scan monitor is off.

Chaffer - Only the chaffer sensors are connected to the monitor. Grain loss infor-
mation from these two sensors is indicated on the meter.

Rotor - Only the rotor cage sensors are connected to the monitor. Grain loss in-
formation from these two sensors is indicated on the meter.

Both - All four sensors are connected to the monitor. This is the normal operating
position for the sensor switch.

set the position of the meter needle on the meter scale.

3. GRAIN SELECTOR CONTROL - Turn the control clockwise or counterclockwise to


adjust the sensor sensitivity for the grain size. Small soft grains such as clover and
alfalfa require a more sensitive setting (small dot) than the large hard grains such
as wheat (medium dot) or corn (large dot).

4. SENSOR INDICATOR PANELS - The sensor indicator panels have marks, 1


through 4. The panels illuminate on and off as material hits the sensors or from
machine vibration. (Tells you the sensors are working). Panels 1 and 2 are for the
chaffer sensors. Panels 3 and 4 are for the rotor sensors.

NOTE: The illumination of the panels should only be used as an indication that the
sensors are working, and not for the actual amount of loss.

5. METER -The meter pointer indicates an increase or decrease in grain loss from the
acceptable level for which the monitor has been adjusted. The change in the meter
indication is used by the operator as a guide on how to change the harvesting
operation - speed up, slow down, make adjustments.

Adjusting Speed Calibration


The digital tachometer can be calibrated for the size of the drive wheels being used.
This adjustment must be made for the digital tachometer to show the correct vehicle
speed. Make the adjustment as follows:

1. Find the static loaded radius of the


drive tires in inches by adding the
..J I~==""'=======
loaded tire height (Dimension 1) to
one half of the rim diameter
(Dimension 2).

EXAMPLE:
Dimension 1 equals .............. 15.25 inch
Dimension 2 equals ................ 28.5 inch
1/2 of Dimension 2
equals ................................ 14.25 inch

15.25 inch
+ 14.25 inch
29.5 inch

The static loaded radius of the drive tires


is 29.5 inch.

2. With the engine stopped, turn the key switch to the ON position.

3. Wait one second for the display to change from showing all the display segments
illuminated to showing 000 and then becomes blank. Press the SPEED switch.

NOTE: If the digital tachometer is already in the calibration mode to check or adjust
another function, the key switch does not have to be turned off and back on again.
Pressing the SPEED switch will set the digital tachometer for adjusting the speed
calibration.

4. Use a small screwdriver to turn the speed calibration screw, marked S, on the front
of the digital tachometer. Turn the speed calibration screw until static loaded
radius shows in the display.

COMBINE OPERATION
Ground Travel Speed

Power is transferred from the engine to the three speed transmission by the hydros-
tatic drive unit. Different ground speeds are available in each transmission gear
range. The ground travel speeds are shown under "Approximate Travel Speeds" in
Specifiction section. Use the digital tachometer to check the ground travel speed.

The correct ground speed is important, as too fast of a ground speed will cause an
overload condition, while a speed that is too slow will not give efficient operation. A
ground speed that is too fast over rough terrain will cause early wear and possible
damage to the combine.

Travel speed should be such that complete control and machine sta-
I",.
bility is maintained at al1 times. Where possible, avoid operating near
. . ditches, embankments and holes. Reduce speed when turning,
crossing slopes, and on rough, slick, or muddy surfaces.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 85

Accumulator (If Equipped)

The accumulator has dry nitrogen gas on one side of a diaphram and hydraulic oil on
the other side. When hydraulic oil enters the accumulator, the diaphram is pushed
toward the nitrogen gas side. As the nitrogen gas is compressed, the accumulator
acts as a shock absorber between the combine and the header. Hydraulic oil enters
the accumulator when the header lift cylinders are extended to raise the header. The
accumulator will soften the up and down motion of the header when driving the
combine over rough ground or when transporting.

NOTE: Do not use the accumulator when operating a header with automatic header
height control.

A The accumulator contains a compressed gas. DO NOT drop the


accumulator or expose the accumulator to temperatures above
300°F (149°C). M183

Comparing Rotor/Chaffer Loss

To compare the rotor loss to the chaffer loss during the harvesting operation, turn the
selector switch to ROTOR and to CHAFFER. Look at the meter needle deflection for
each position. If the rotor position indicates an increase in grain loss, the cause can
be improper threshing. If the chaffer position indicates an increase in grain loss, the
air flow or the sieves are not adjusted correctly.

NOTE: Variation in ground and crop conditions can affect loses in both the rotor and
the chaffer.

NOTE: If the chaffer sensor brackets fill with straw and chaff during combine
operation, remove the sensor seed combs.

Checking Monitor Operation


1. Turn the sensor switch to OFF.

2. Turn the key switch to ON, but do not

UNLOADER OPERATION

The unloader tube operation is controlled


from cab. The grain tank un loader tube
switch is located on the steering column.
Use this switch to move the unloader
tube into the unload position. The grain
tank un loader drive lever is located on the
left hand side of the operators seat. Use
this lever to engage and disengage the
unloader drive.

During transport the unloader tube is


held to the transport bracket with a
retaining clip. Make sure the retaining
clip is removed before operating the
controls for the unloader tube.

NOTE: Umit switches will close the hydraulic control valve if the unloader tube switch
is left in either the SWING OUT or the SWING IN position.

A DO NOT enter the grain tank when the combine is running. The
rotating augers in the bottom of the grain tank can cause severe
injury including possible loss of limbs. M192

AMBER WARNING LAMPS


DIRECTION TURN SIGNAL
SMV SYMBOL

Collision of high speed road traffic and slow moving machines can
h cause personal injury or death. On roads, use flasher/lights ac-
. . cording to local laws. Keep SMV emblem visible. Pull over to let
faster traffic pass. Slow down and signal before turning off. M110D

Your combine has flashing warning lamps, direction turn signals, tail lamps and a
slow moving vehicle (SMV) emblem. Make sure to use these items correctly, when
operating the combine on the road, for the safety and protection of the operator and
other vehicle operators. The flashing amber warning lamps must be operating when
the combine is operated on a road during the day or night. A vehicle operator that
comes near the combine must see the SMV emblem and the tail lamps from the rear
and the flashing amber warning lamps from the front and rear.

The SMV emblem must be replaced when the bright orange, center triangle has noti-
ceably faded to a pale orange color. This fading of the orange fluorescent center will
occur due to long exposure to sunlight, and reduces daytime identification by ap-
proaching vehicle drivers.

Cutting Parts
Proper maintenance and timely section replacement will increase cutterbar effi-
ciency. 1-1/2 inch (3B.1 mm) knife sections and 3 inch (76.2 mm) knife sections are
available. A 1-1/2 inch (3B.1 mm) knife system is recommended for use in down crops
and where shatter loss is a concern, and for use in rice and soybean harvest. A 3 inch
(76.2 mm) knife system is recommended for use in all small grains and sunflowers.

Feeder Chain
Feeder chain tension should be adjusted so there is 1/32 to 1/B inch (O.B to 3.2 mm)
clearance between the slat tips and feeder bottom. The feeder chain slat tip should be
running no further rearward of the feeder than 1-1/2 inches. Feeder chain tension
should be adjusted so there is 1/32 to 1/B inch (O.B to 3.2 mm) clearance between the
slat tips and feeder bottom.

The feeder chain slat tip should be running no further rearward of the feeder face than
1-1/2 inches (3B.1 mm).ln some cases it may be necessary to add links to the feeder
chain. Maintain a clearance between the slat tip and the auger flights.

A 6 pitch feeder chain (slat every 6 links)


is standard for grain and corn combines.

An B pitch feeder chain (slat every Blinks)


with serrated slats is standard for rice
combines.

Three lower-drum stop positions may be utilized to help achieve the desired feeding
throughput. If your machine is equipped with a stone retarder drum, maximum rock
protection is obtained with the upper stop of the drum in its lower pOSition. Most crops
utilize the lowest position, although heavier crops such as corn will require raising the
drum to the upper position. A rock trap is available for most crops and offers
maximum rock protection.

130 FIELD OPERATION _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

Auger Adjustments
Header auger adjustments and optional auger rpm combinations are often over-
looked when setting the header. Check for correct fore-and-aft auger position, re-
tractable finger position, auger speed and auger stripper adjusment. Proper stripper
clearance will reduce material feeding over the auger.

The auger should clear the strippers at closest point by not more than 1/8 inch (3.2
mm). The auger should clear the header bottom at closest point by not more than 1/2
inch (12.7 mm) for most conditions. If combining coarse crops, heavy down crops, or
windrows, a 1 inch (25.4 mm) or more clearance might be required to prevent
plugging auger.

Stripper extensions extend stripper length inward toward the feeder house opening.
These extensions are used to fit different width feeder openings.

The retractable fingers should clear the header bottom by 1/8 to 3/8 inch (3.2 to 9.5
mm) for most conditions. If straw feeds into the header in a thick mass or windrow,
and in heavy crop conditions, better feeding may result if the fingers are adjusted
away from the header bottom so the auger fingers are at maximum extension at the 10
o'clock position on the front auger face.

Optional auger speed sprockets for 1000 Series grain heads are available for various
crop conditions. They include:
152 RPM - 56 Tooth * Use slower speeds when shatter losses are high or
wrapping occurs. Use higher speeds to match
170 RPM - 50 Tooth
auger speed to highest ground speeds.
189 RPM - 45 Tooth
213 RPM - 40 Tooth
Optional header auger flight extensions will improve feeding in various crop condi-
tions. These extensions improve material delivery to the feeder.

Leveling The Header

Level the header as follows:


1. Put the combine on level ground.

2. Adjust both drive tires to equal pressure.

3. Loosen the top cover nuts on the top LH side of the feeder housing.

4. To raise the LH end of the header, loosen the rear nut and tighten the front nut on
the header leveling bolts.

To raise the RH end of the header, loosen the front nut and tighten the rear nut on
the header leveling bolt.

5. Tighten the feeder top cover nuts, to a torque of 115 to 130 Ib ft (156 to 176 Nm).

Feeder Conveyor Adjustments


Chain Adjustment
Keep the feeder conveyor chain adjusted correctly at all times. Inspect the chain for
correct tension after the first 50 hours of operation and at regular intervals thereafter.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to adjust the chain evenly on both sides to prevent excessive
wear on both chains and sprockets.
The conveyor chain tension is adjusted by moving the feeder drum forward or
rearward. Adjust the chain tension as follows:

1. Loosen the drum arm pivot bolt on


each side of the feeder.

2. Use the adjusting bolt on each side of


the feeder to move the drum forward
to apply tension to the chain.

3. Adjust the conveyor chain to give


clearance of 1/32 to 1/8 inch (0.8 to
3.2 mm) between the chain slats and
the bottom of the feeder housing.
Measure the clearance at the point of
maximum sag of the lower strand of
the conveyor chain.
REAR
4. After adjusting the chain tension,
check the clearance between the
chain slats and the feeder adapter.
The clearance must be no more than
1-1/2 inch (38 mm) to provide correct
feeding and transfer of material from
the header auger.

5. If the clearance in Step 4 is not correct


add or remove chain links as
necessary and adjust the position of
the drum. See Conveyor Drum
Fore/Aft Adjustments on Page 134 for
more information. Adjust the chain
tension again as specified above.

Conveyor Drum Lower Stop Adjustment


The lower stops for the conveyor drum can be adjusted to keep the drum in a raised
position. To adjust the lower stops, loosen the nuts on the stop bolts. Slide the stop
bolts in the slots to the desired position and tighten the nuts. The recommended
settings are as follows:

For Heavy
Crops (Corn) ............... Upper Position
For Average
Crops ......................... Middle Position
For Crops
Hard To Feed ............ Lower Position.

NOTE: Always adjust the lower stops to


the same position on both sides of the
feeder.

Conveyor Drum Fore/Aft Adjustment


The fore/aft position of the conveyor
drum must be adjusted correctly to get
correct feeding of material from the
header auger to the feeder. The position
of the drum must be adjusted for a
maximum clearance of 1-1/2 inch (38
mm) from the conveyor chain slat to the
feeder face.

NOTE: In short crops the 1-1/2 inch (38


mm) maximum may need to be reduced.

The drum is adjusted fore and aft with the


conveyor chain adjusting bolts on each
side of the feeder and by adding or
removing chain links in the conveyor
chain.

Before adding or removing chain links,


check the feeder conveyor chain for
correct tension. See Feeder Conveyor
Chain Adjustment in this manual for
complete instructions.

When the chain tension is correct, add or


remove links from the conveyor chain as
necessary to get the correct clearance.
After adding or removing chain links, the
chain tension must be adjusted again.

Adjusting Accumulator Pressure


The accumulator valve can be used to shut the accumulator off and to regulate the
flow of hydraulic oil into the accumulator. If the header moves up and down too much
when lowered to the cutting height, partially close the accumulator valve.

NOTE: Do not use the accumulator when operating a header with automatic header
height control.

For the accumulator to work correctly, the pressure of the nitrogen gas must be lower
than the normal hydraulic lift pressure. To adjust the pressure, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the valve guard from the ac-


cumulator and open the accumla-
tor valve.

2. Lower the header to the ground, hold


header lift switch in the DOWN posi-
tion for 5 seconds and close the ac-
cumulator valve.

3. Raise the header until the cutter bar or


stalk rolls are 12 to 18 inch (305 to 457
mm) above the ground.

4. Measure the height of the cutter bar or


stalk rolls.

5. Open the accumulator valve. The


header must lower a distance of 6 to
10 inch (152 to 254 mm). If the header
did not lower this amount, remove the
valve cap. Release enough nitrogen
gas until the header has lowered the
full 6 to 10 inch (152 to 254 mm).

THRESHING AND SEPARATING


Introduction
The threshing and separating functions of Axial-Flow combines are performed in the
rotor cage area. Material is fed from the feeder to the impeller blade area of the rotor
and flows rearward through the machine. The two most important components to the
threshing and separating processes are the rotor and the concaves.

The rotor threshes the grain and assists in the rearward travel of the material through
the machine. The sooner the grain is threshed out of the heads, the more opportunity
the grain has to separate from the material.

The function of the three-section concave is two-fold. First, the concaves must hold
the material long enough to insure complete threshing. Second the concaves must
have enough capacity to allow the grain to separate into the cleaning system once the
grain has been threshed.

Threshing area adjustments properly made will assist you in obtaining maximum
machine performance. Rotor speed and concave clearance are the two most im-
portant adjustments.

Rotor speed is important to the control of material throughput in the rotor cage.

The two adjustments available to the concaves are their clearance from the rotor rasp
bars and/or the removal or addition of wires, filler bars or interrupter bars.

Concave clearance is determined by the threshing difficulty of the crop. For harder
threshing conditions a close setting is preferred, and for easier threshing conditions,
a wider setting is recommended. The concave indicator setting should never exceed
setting number 5. The wider selections should be used only as cleanout positions. In
hard threshing crops, the concave zero (0) adjustment should be checked.

Rotor speeds and concave clearances must be matched to crop and conditions for
most efficient and productive operation. One common mistake is running rotor too
slow and concave set too open for crop. This results in slow movement of the mate-
rial, inefficient threshing and separation, and a loss in machine capacity.

With the axial-flow concept kernel damage is greatly decreased and is not affected by
rotor speed and concave setting nearly as much as conventional combines are by
cylinder speed and concave adjustment. There is a much broader acceptable range
of settings with the axial-flow.

FIELD OPERATlON _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

Movement of material through the rotor cage area is controlled by transport cage
vanes. Relocating the vanes by pivoting them into a more vertical position (rearward
position) results in additional spiraling of crop material for increased threshing and
separation. A more horizontal position (forward position) increases crop material flow
rearward.

Separation is completed in the rear half of the cage area by using grates between the
rotor and cleaning system. See Page 154 of this manual for a description of the avail-
able grates and their applications.

Operators should not hesitate to make adjustments when necessary. but should
make only one adjustment at a time. If no improvement. reset to original position and
proceed to another adjustment.

In the Field
After operating a distance in the field (at least 100 yards) check the threshed straw
behind the combine.

If all the grain has been completely threshed out of the straw and the straw appears to
be mangled or over threshed (Generally in axial-flow threshing. you will find particu-
larily in the drier straw, the straw will be more chopped up) do the following:
1st Slow the rotor rpm
2nd - Open the concaves
3rd - Combination of 1 and 2

In corn if cobs are broken, follow the same steps.

If cobs still have kernels attached and threshing does not appear to be complete, do
the following:
1st - Speed up rotor
2nd - Tighten concaves
3rd - Combination of 1 and 2

In grain if the crop still appears not to be threshed and if not already installed, install a
set of narrow spaced wire concaves (7/16 inch between center of wires).

Generally higher rotor speeds will complete the threshing. Closing the concave will
improve threshing. If the concave is closed, check the quality of the sample in the
grain tank. If skinning or cracking has occured open the concave slightly and slow the
rotor rpm.

Separating and Cleaning Losses


Before making unnecessary adjustments to the combine, check for seed loss by
using the method described under Seed Loss Tables. If, after checking, it is found that
the loss is from the separator then proceed as follows to determine if it is from the rotor
or cleaning system.
140

9-11422
FIELD OPERATION 141

Separation
Most of the separation of the crop from the straw or husks occurs in the concave area
during the threshing cycle. Crop not separated in either the concave area or the grate
area will be lost out of the rear of the combine. These losses are referred to as rotor
losses.

To Determine If Losses Are From Rotor Or Cleaning System


1. Remove straw spreaders.

2. With a shovel, catch a short sample at the rear of the hood. Check kernel loss from
rotor.

3. With a shovel, catch a short sample at the rear of the chaffer. Check kernel loss
from cleaning system.

4. Compare samples to determine where losses are occuring.

To Correct For Rotor Losses


1. Check to see if concave is plugged.
A. If plugged and packed with mud this is generally caused by running header too
close to the ground. Clean concaves and raise header height.

B. If plugged with crop material check concave to rotor clearance. Generally this
type of plugging is caused by excessive concave opening.

2. Check rotor speed to setting as indicated in table for particular crop.


A. Extremely high speeds or extremely low speeds can add to rotor losses.

3. In corn with slotted grates, channels should be on the inside of the grates between
the slotted holes.

4. In grain with slotted grates, the channels should be on the outside of the grates
across the holes. In some cases, in grain, it will be necessary to move the channels
to a position outside the grates and between the slotted holes.

5. All com machines should have the wide wire spaced concaves (13/16 inch center
distance of wires). In some grain crops use of the wide wire spaced concave will
be beneficial in reducing rotor losses.

6. In some peculiar conditions, moving the concave vanes (6) to a less severe angle
will help reduce rotor losses. Although moving the vanes to this less severe angle
could cause excessive use of horsepower and increase in cleaning system loads.

141

9-11422
142 FIELD OPERATlON_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

7. In some edible bean or soybean crops it will be necessary to increase the speed of
the rotor. An indication of poor material flow is rotor rumble and possible slugging
in more adverse conditions.

8. In very heavy crops or high yielding corn crops where large amounts of material
other than grain are going through the machine it might be necessary to slow the
ground speed to reduce the rotor losses.

Rotor losses should be kept as low as possible by doing what has been previously
mentioned, but you must remember that opening the concave by removing concave
wires and excessive rotor speeds and/or too tight concave settings can overload the
cleaning system.

Cage Transport Vanes

The top of the rotor cage has transport vanes to help move the crop from the front to
the rear of the rotor. The transport vanes are adjustable in a slot to advance or retard
the crop flow around the rotor lower end. To reduce rotor losses in certain conditions,
adjust the transport vanes over the grate area, to the rear (retard) position, first. If the
rotor loss must still be reduced, adjust the transport vanes over the concave area to
the retarded position. Adjusting the lower end of the transport vanes rearward can
increase horsepower and fuel requirements. Adjusting the transport vanes forward
can increase material flow and ground speed, and can also reduce horsepower and
fuel requirements. For average crop conditions, adjust the transport vanes over both
the concave area and the grate area to the middle position.

Adjust the transport vanes as follows:


1. Remove the LH separator side panels.

2. Loosen the three nuts, on each transport vane to be adjusted, to within 1/8 to 3/16
inch (3 to 5 mm) from the end of the bolts.

Rasp and Separator Bars


The grain and corn combines have
curved and straight rasp bars over the
concave area and separator bars over
the grate area.

The rice combine uses several short rasp


bars over the concave area and the grate
area.

When the rasp bars become worn,


replace the rasp bars. The concave must
be removed to replace the rasp bars. See
Concave Removal.

The separator bars will wear more on the


leading edge than on the trailing edge.
The separator bars can be reversed for
longer wear. To reverse or replace the
separator bars, the grates will have to be
removed. See Grate Removal.

Custom Cutter Package


A Custom Cutter Package is available from the factory and includes a number of com-
ponents made of heavier or special materials for increased wear life of key threshing

Specialty Crop Rotor Assembly


For threshing viney crops like edible
beans or soybeans when the stems are
not dry, a specialty crop rotor assembly
is available. See your dealer. The spe-
cialty crop rotor can be used to harvest
corn and wheat. Straight separator bars
are provided for use in corn. When corn
is going to be harvested, straight sepa-
rator bars can be substituted for horizon-
tally aligned pairs of spiked or non-
spiked rasp bars. Straight separator bars
improve separation. When installing the
straight sepa- rator bars, tighten the
mounting bolts to a torque of 50 to 80 lb ft (68 to 108 Nm).

Rasp bars with spikes or without spikes can be used with the specialty crop rotor.
If material flow through the combine is a problem, install rasp bars without spikes over
the concave area and rasp bars with spikes over the separator grate area. Tighten the
mounting bolts for the rasp bars to a torque of 50 to 80 lb ft (65 to 108 Nm).

CONCAVE
Setting the Concave
The clearance between the rotor and the
concave can be set from the LH side of
the combine.

A ratchet at the top of the separator is


used to adjust the concave. A pointer
moves up and down in a slot next to the
indicator plate to show the change in the
concave setting.

The first three operating positions on the


indicator plate are HARD THRESH, EASY

settings are indicated as a starting point.

Crop conditions can require other settings to be used. See Initial Crop Settings. The
CLEANOUT position is used only when additional clearance is needed to clear the
rotor. See Clearing the Rotor.

NOTE: When the concave is set to the CLOSED position, the rotor must not make
contact with the concave throughout an entire revolution of the rotor.

Adjusting Concave Position

The right to left position of the concave under the rotor can affect the threshing results
of the combine. If the concave support pipe and plates are equipped with drawbolts,
the concave position can be adjusted. The initial position for the concave is with the
seventh concave bar from the left closest to the rotor. When unthreshed heads
become a problem, the concave position can be adjusted to the right, moving the
sixth concave bar closer to the rotor than the seventh concave bar.

Adjust the concave position as follows:


1. Lower the concave to position 3, corn.

2. Loosen the nuts on the RH concave support pipe eyebolts.

3. Loosen the five retaining bolts on both


the front and rear concave support

GRATES
The grate area is at the rear of the rotor
cage assembly. Access to the grates is
through the opening behind the rear LH
side panel. The grates are stationary and
cannot be moved closer to, or farther
away, from the rotor assembly. The
grates are in three sections that are held
together with retaining bolts. The grates
are installed on the bottom of the rotor
cage with mounting bolts on the LH side.
Either slotted grates, 3/8 inch square bar
grates or solid grates can be used.

Slotted Grates
Slotted grates arl3 recommended for
edible beans, most small grain crops
and can also be used for corn. To reduce
the amount of chaff that goes through the
grates to the cleaning system, up to
seven channels can be installed on the
outside of the grates. Installing the
channels in the middle of the slots gives
the minimum opening for grain. Up to
seven channels can be installed on the
inside of the grates for corn. Installing the
channels between the slots gives the
maximum opening for corn. The grates A1901
must be removed to add or remove
channels on the slotted grates.

3/8 inch square bar grates are recom-
mended for corn, milo/maize and rice.
The square bar grates help to reduce

GRAIN CLEANING
Introduction
The cleaning activity of the Axial-Flow combine is the final separation of grain from
material that has been distributed through the concaves and separator grates.
Material is separated by the chaffer and shoe sieves to remove unwanted foreign ma-
terial. Chaff and other unwanted material is suspended by air and discharged out the
rear of the combine. Adjustments required for this function are the rpm of the cleaning
fan (controlling air velocity) and the adjustments of both chaffer and shoe sieves. Too
much wind blast on light crops will contribute to cleaning system losses. For extre-
mely light seeded crops, such as grass, proper fan speed may be obtainable only
with the slow fan speed drive package. This kit reduces normal fan speed range of
450 to 1200 rpm down to a ra nge of 156 to 453 rpm. The slow speed fan kit must not
be used with fan air inlet screens. Fan air inlet screens have been designed to keep
foreign material from entering the cleaning system, such as corn cobs, husks, leaves
and chaff.

To ensure optimum efficiency of the cleaning system, the threshed material should be
distributed evenly across the chaffer sieve. Uneven distribution will be improved by
use of the auger bed paddles. Sidehill divider attachments will prevent the drift of
material to the lower side of the chaffer in a sidehill grain operation.

A grain pan extension is also available to keep grain pan material such as heavy corn
cobs from falling into the clean grain auger. This extension, standard on grain com-
bines, may be installed on corn combines to provide a cleaner grain sample under
some conditions.

Only through experimentation will an operator find the correct combination of chaffer
and shoe sieve settings that yield him the maximum grain savings, clean grain tank
sample and reduced tailings return. A number of special configuration sieves are av-
ailable for specialty crop applications.

To Correct Cleaning System Losses


Troubleshooting Your Problems
The first step toward solving any problem is accurately identifying that problem. This
is especially important in combine operation because the machine performs so many
different functions.

Functional problems such as poor cutting action and reel wrapping usually are
obvious and will be uncovered readily when you use the Initial Crop Settings on Page
110.

Problems with internal components are more difficult to analyze. If you're ex-
periencing loss of grain at the separator, you may want to diagnose your problem
through the "quick kill" procedure.

157

9-11422
158 FIELD OPERATION, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

Quick Kill Problem Diagnosis


This procedure allows you to inspect the inside of your combine as if it was in opera-
tion. Because the machine must be stopped for inspection, there will be some major
differences between the conditions inspected and those that exist during operation.
Even with these obvious limitations, the procedure can be an extremely useful diag-
nostic tool. To perform a quick kill follow this procedure:
1. Select a relatively level area of the field where the crop is reasonably uniform and
representative. Use the highest transmission gear in which you can achieve the
normal operating speed; i.e. use second gear, if possible.

2. While operating the combine in a normal, steady manner, execute steps a, b, and c
in rapid sequence.
a. With your right hand, move the engine speed control to the slow idle pOSition.
b. With your left hand, move the propulsion control lever to the fastest forward po-
sition.
c. Apply maximum effort to both brake pedals with the pedals locked together.
You may want to use both feet.

Don't turn off key switch until after the quick kill.

NOTE: Although this may appear to be abusive to the combine, it really only uses the
brakes to stop the separator quickly. Without the extemal braking effort, the
momentum of the rotor would continue to drive the separator to a coasting stop. In a
successful quick kill the combine must stop within ten feet.

CAUTION: Never use the quick kill procedure when operating conditions are such
that restarting the rotor might be difficult.

3. Immediately after making the quick kill move the separator drive and feeder clutch
switches to the OFF position. Return the propulsion control lever to the stop posi-
tion, restart the engine, and allow it to cool to a safe shutdown temperature.Then
stop the engine, set the parking brakes, and remove the key from the switch.

4. Remove left hand side shields from the concave and grate areas.

5. Inspect the concaves for indications of plugging of other problems.

6. Check the material in the auger bed for signs of incomplete threshing, kernel
damage, or other abnormal conditions.

7. Agitate the crop material inside the rotor in the grate area. If there are loose kernels
near the rear of the grate area, this probably indicates excessive rotor losses. On
the other hand, relatively few kernels near the front of the grate area would suggest
a reserve of separating capacity.

158

9-11422
159
FIELD OPERATION _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

8. Check the distribution of material on the grain pan and chaffer sieve. The load dis-
tribution on the chaffer sieve should be inspected from the rear as well as the left
hand inspection area.

9. Lower the tailings auger trough door. Inspect the load and load distribution on the
shoe sieve. Check the type and amount of material in the tailings auger trough.

10. Make sure crop material flow is proper in the header, feeder house and elevators.

11. Using all the information available, proceed with adjustments or corrections as
listed in the troubleshooting charts.

12. Replace shields, close the tailings auger trough door, and recheck to be sure the
machine is ready to be restarted safely.

13. To restart a combine after a quick kill, start the engine and allow it to warm up
enough to run normally and evenly. Move the engine speed control to the slow idle
position. Execute step a and then step b as quickly as possible in sequence.
a. Move the separator switch to the ON position.
b. Move the engine speed control to the forward or full-speed position to get all
components up to speed and then, reduce engine speed to 1/2 throttle so
machine can clean itself out.

14. If the rotor is choked, you will have to use the appropriate procedure to clear it.

15. When the separator has operated long enough to be cleared, return the engine
speed control to the slow idle position, activate the feeder clutch switch, and im-
mediately return the engine to full speed.

The speed of the cleaning fan can be
adjusted from 450 to 1200 RPM. To
adjust the fan speed. use the cleaning
fan speed control switch on the RH
console. Press down on the rear half of
the switch to decrease the fan speed and
on the front half of the switch to increase
the fan speed. The separator switch must
be in the ON position with the engine
running to change the fan speed.

Operate with the cleaning fan at a speed


fast enough to provide as much air as
possible to the cleaning sieves. without blowing clean grain out the back of the
machine. See Initial Crop Settings for the recommended starting fan speed for the
type of crop being harvested. Adjust the fan speed higher or lower as needed for the
crop conditions. Use the digital tachometer in the fan mode to indicate the fan speed.

Slow Speed Fan Drive


A slow speed fan drive attachment can be installed to lower the fan speed (range of
156 to 453 RPM) and reduce the air volume for light crops such as grasses. The slow
speed fan drive attachment puts an idler pulley between the fan variable speed pulley
and the fan drive shaft pulley. See your Dealer for the slow speed fan drive
attachment. The slow speed fan drive attachment cannot be used with air inlet
shields.

Air Inlet Shields


Air inlet shields can be installed on the LH
and RH sides and on the bottom fan area
of the combine. The shields help to
reduce the amount of leaves drawn into
the fan in such crops as corn and maize.
See your Dealer for the air inlet shields.

GRAIN HANDLING AND MATERIAL DISTRIBUTION


Introduction
The final functions of the balanced combine are conveying cleaned grain and dis-
charging threshed crop residue. Cleaned grain from the Axial-Flow combine is
elevated from the clean grain auger to the grain tank. Crop residue is discharged from
the rear of the rotor by a discharge beater and over the rear axle to straw spreaders.

Elevator capacity may be improved by using steel elevator flights when green or juicy
crop conditions are experienced. Steel elevator flight helps clean sides of the elevator
walls.

If additional grain cleaning at the elevator is desired, perforated elevator troughs,


doors and unloader tube assemblies are available.

Additional checks include proper slip clutch adjustment, tension of drive chain and
proper elevator chain tightness.

Unloader extensions permit on-the-go


unloading into high capacity grain carts.
The 136 inch (3454 mm) unloading
auger tube is standard. The extension will
lengthen the tube to 172 inch (4369 mm).

387L8

For the increasing number of farmers utilizing some method of reduced tillage, the
Axial-Flow straw material distribution design offers unique advantages.

The straw chopper attachment breaks up crop residues to assist in tillage and pest
control. The straw chopper attachment effectively shreds material for more even field
distribution by the straw spreaders. The chopper is installed in place of the standard
discharge beater. The chopper rotor is dynamically balanced to provide smooth vib-
ration free operation. When straw or stem conditions dictate the utilization of a straw
chopper, the straw spreaders can also be utilized to ensure thorough and even distri-
bution of residue. The design improves soil condition by evenly redistributing plant
food material.

Spreader bats can be adjusted to several positions depending on the pattern and
aggressiveness of residue distribution desired by the operator. Positioning the bats
with outer end turned up and angled in the direction of their rotation, will result in the
widest, most aggresive distribution pattern.

ELEVATORS
Clean Out Doors
Both the tailings and the clean grain
elevators have a clean out door for
inspecting the conveyor chains and for
cleaning out the elevator.

Open the doors and clean out the


elevators before harvesting a different
crop. Clean out the elevators at the end of
each day. Leave the doors open when
the combine is not in use to prevent
plugging or freezing.

Check the tension of the elevator chains


weekly.

Steel Flights For Conveyor Chains


Steel flight assemblies can be installed
on the conveyor chains. The steel flight
assemblies are recommended for heavy
crops such as corn and for operation in
wet and muddy conditions. The steel
flight assemblies help to keep dirt from
caking in the grain and tailings elevators.
Two steel flight assemblies per chain,
equally spaced, are recommended for
best results.

GRAIN TANK AND UNLOADER


Leveling Auger Adjustment
Depending on the type of crop and crop
conditions it will be necessary to adjust
the leveling auger in the grain tank to get
even loading of the grain tank. To adjust
the auger loosen the set screws and
move the auger on the shaft to the
needed position. Tighten the set screws.

Unloader Auger Cover


Adjustment
The covers on the unloader augers can
be adjusted to maintain even unloading
of the grain tank. The covers can also be
used to adjust the volume of material
being unloaded, to vary unloading times
and to prevent overloading the unloader
drive in heavy crop conditions.

To adjust the covers, loosen the cover


mounting bolts and move the cover up or
down as required. Tighten the cover
mounting bolts.
In certain crop conditions, such as grass
seeds, it can be necessary to remove the
covers completely to improve the
unloading of the grain tank. These crop
conditions can also cause the material to
hesitate during the unloading process. If
agitation of the material is necessary it
must be done from the operators
platform using a pole or broom. If it
becomes necessary to agitate the
material at the rear of the grain tank it
must be done by a second person from
the engine service area using a pole or
broom. One person must remain in the
operators cab to stop the engine if
necessary.

A DO NOT enter the grain tank when the combine is running. The
rotating augers in the bottom of the grain tank can cause severe
injury including possible loss of limbs. M192

SEED LOSS
New standards have been written for reduced field losses, improved grain quality and
simplified machine operation. The axial-flow combine has performed in harvesting
conditions previously thought to be too adverse for successful combine operation.
With minimal field losses as his goal, the axial-flow operator has more latitude to
adjust for maximum combine efficiency. Understanding crop flow and functions pre-
viously discussed makes adjustment for field losses easier. A spontaneous adjust-
ment, without thorough analysis and diagnosis of specific reason for the crop loss,
could lead the operator away from the correct machine adjustment. A universal har-
vesting rule is to set your combine to manual specifications first, then adjust. See
Initial Crop Settings on Page 110. Make only one adjustment at a time, then re-
evaluate.

When adjusting a combine, it is important to note that no combine will save every
seed. Combines can be operated at speeds and settings which range from almost
zero loss to extremely heavy losses. Each operator must determine what loss to
accept for the field condition and time available for harvest. He must adjust the
combine and travel speed accordingly. Losses should be checked in several sports
and averaged to eliminate the effects of any uneven feeding.

When checking loss it is important to determine the source of the loss before making
adjustments. Checking losses where the separator empties without considering
whether they originate from preharvest causes, header causes, or the separator can
lead to unnecessary or erroneous adjustments.

The formula below has three major areas of loss:


Preharvest Loss + Header Loss + Separator Loss = Total Loss
When measuring losses, take a full cut with the header at your regular operating
speed without using the spreaders. Stop the combine in an area of the field that repre-
sents an average of the field. Do not use rows that are near the edges of the field and
do not make your measurements near the end of the field. Allow the combine to clear
after stopping and back up a distance equal to its length. You can then check all loss
points without starting and stopping again. Caution! Be sure machine is shut down
and all moving components completely stopped before starting evaluations.

Minimize Your Pre-Harvest Losses


This is loss that is present before you harvest the crop. This loss is kernels or seeds on
the ground due to weather, insect damage and other adverSity. These losses cannot
be recovered, no mater how efficient the combine is.

To determine the amount of preharvest losses, look in the unharvested crop for
kernels, seeds, seed heads, ears of corn, etc. on the ground that the header would be
unable to gather. To measure the amount of loss in bushels, refer to the Seed Loss
Tables.

182

Be sure to use the uniform spread column and select the crop you are harvesting. The
number shown in this column is the number of seeds per square foot to equal one
bushel per acre loss. This number is divided into the number of kernels you found to
come up with the bushel per acre pre-harvest loss.

AREAC

390LB

Header Losses
Header loss is due to cutting too high, reel shatter, snapping roll loss, etc. This can be
measured by comparing the kernels on the ground in Area B to Area A. The difference
would be due to header losses. If a more precise measurement is required. refer to
the seed loss tables and determine seed loss the same as you did for pre-harvest
losses. then subtract the pre-harvest loss to obtain the header loss:

Loss in Area B - Loss in Area A = Header Loss


To reduce header losses. make sure the header is adjusted properly as explained in
the Header Operator's Manual.

Separator Losses
This is loss from the rotor and cleaning system such as unthreshed heads. etc. which
are a result of improper adjustments or lack of proper attachments. To obtain this
loss. check Area C which is windrowed directly behind the separator. The grain in this
area would be all losses. Subtract the preharvest (area A) and the header losses (Area
B) from this measurement to determine the separator loss. For a more precise mea-
surement, refer to the Seed Loss Tables to obtain the amount of loss in bushels or
pounds per acre for your machine.

Before making adjustments. make sure there are no grain leaks due to missing bolts,
clean out doors open. etc. If separator loss is high. it is necessary to determine
whether the loss is from the rotor or cleaning system.

To determine whether the separator loss is due to the rotor or cleaning system. fully
open the shoe and chaffer sieve.

184
FIELD OPERATION_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __

NOTE: This procedure will cause a poor sample due to excessive trash in the grain
sample during the test. If separator loss remains high it is due to rotor losses. If sepa-
rator loss decreases the loss is due to improper cleaning system adjustment.

Sieve settings are essentially the same with an axial-flow combine as in the past with
conventional combines. Too heavy tailings could result in rotor losses.

There are three basic adjustments for the cleaning system. These are opening and
closing the chaffer, opening and closing the shoe and cleaning fan rpm changes. The
main air blast is directed to the front part of the chaffer. Air speed should be sufficient
to lift material and suspend it in the air, letting heavier particles (grain) down. If under-
blown, material will ride on the chaffer and grain will be sloughed off the end of the
chaffer. If overblown grain will be picked up and blown beyond the end of the chaffer.

The need for cleaning shoe adjustments can be easily determined by monitoring
grain tank samples, tailings, and losses on the ground. If tailings are excessive, open
the shoe slightly. If grain tank sample is trashy close the shoe and/or increase the fan
speed. Too wide of a chafter sieve opening can add to excessive tailings.

An overloaded shoe sieve and high tailings can also be the result of too low fan speed
setting instead of too open chaffer setting. It is important to remember that the air
velocity through the chaffer sieve will change by changing the sieve opening. (With
constant fan speed). Therefore the more the chaffer sieve is opened the faster the fan
speed should be set in order to continue to lift the lighter chaff material and blow it out
the rear. This is handy to remember when more capacity is desired from the cleaning
system.

For side hill operations, chaffer dividers are available.

TIRE INFLATION
NOTE: Upon receiving your combine, immediately adjust the air pressure in the tires
as indicated in the table.

Keep the tires properly inflated to the pressure shown in the inflation pressure table for
the front and rear tires. Both underinflation and overinflation are detrimental to tire life.
Check tire pressure weekly or after 50 hours of operation.

When combines are transported on a carrier, such as a railroad car or trailer, the tires
are inflated to 30 pounds per square inch (207 kPa) to make possible rigid blocking
and to prevent bouncing. Pressure must be decreased to operating pressure before
the combine is put into service.

Make sure that the tire valve caps are in place and are tightened securely to prevent
loss of air and protect the valve core and stem.

A Use a clip on air chuck. extension hose with gauge and stand away
from the tire while inflating to prevent the possibility of personal
injury due to a tire and rim separation. etc. M197

A tire can explode during inflation and cause serious Injury or


death. Never increase air pressure beyond 35 PSI to seat the bead
on the rim. Replace a tire if it has a defect. Replace a wheel rim
which has cracks. wear or severe rust. Make sure that all the air is
removed from a tire before removing the tire from the rim. Never use
force on an inflated or partially inflated tire. Make sure the tire is cor-
rectly seated before inflating. M170

DRIVE AXLE
Drive Wheels
Operate the combine with the drive wheels turned out for maximum tread. The wide
tread will help the stability of the combine. Operate the combine with the drive wheels
turned in to the minimum tread only when harvesting on level ground or in certain row
crop conditions.

A When operating the combine with the wheels turned in for minimum
tread, extreme care must be used to prevent the combine from
tipping over. M179

IMPORTANT: When removing or installing the 28L-26 tires, position the tire with the
valve stem toward the front of the combine to prevent contact and possible damage
between the tire valve stem and the final drive housing.

Short Axle Extensions


For row crop use, axle extensions can be
installed on the combine. The axle
extensions will increase the wheel tread
by 12 inch (305 mm). See Drive Wheel
Tread Positions for the wheel treads with
axle extensions installed.

Long Axle Extensions


This extension provides a constant 144
inch (3 658 mm) wheel tread. Combine
must be equipped with 24.5-32 inch or
larger tires (wheels must be dished in).

Wheel Spacers
Wheel spacers are available in 2 inch (51
mm) or 3 inch (76 mm) widths and will be
required on some tire sizes when the
wheels are dished in. See Drive Wheel
Tread Positions for the wheel treads with
wheel spacers installed.

DRIVE TRACKS (IF EQUIPPED)


The combine drive tracks must be maintained on a regular basis. Proper mainte-
nance will prevent premature wear and extend the service life of the track mechanism.
See the instructions below for track shoe bolt torque, track tension adjustment and
lubrication.

If necessary the drive tracks can be removed from a track combine and rubber tires in-
stalled. When a track combine is equipped with rubber tires, operate the combine at a
safe ground speed. DO NOT exceed 20 MPH.

14229

IMPORTANT: Grain and corn combines equipped with the 36137 gear transmission
and the two speed hydrostatic propulsion motor have an electrical lockout switch to
prevent the hydrostatic propulsion motor from operating in HI range when the
transmission is in 3rd gear. Track combines do not have the lockout switch. Always
operate a track combine equipped with rubber tires and the 36137 gear transmission in
LO range when in 3rd gear.

h If combine is equipped with rubber tires, operate propulsion motor


.. to maintain safe ground speed. DO NOT EXCEED 20 MPH. M188A

Track Shoe Bolt


Check the shoe bolt torque every 10 hours for the first 50 hours of operation and on a
regular schedule thereafter.

Tighten the shoe bolts to a torque of 115 to 130 Ib ft (156 to 176 Nm). When tightening
the shoe bolts, hit the shoe bolts a number of times with a hammer. Tighten the bolts
again to the above torque.

A To help prevent personal injuries during operation and


mamtenance. use safety shoes, a hard hat, safety glasses or
goggles and good fitting clothing. M100A

Track Tension Adjustment


Check the track tension every 10 hours for the first 50 hours of operation. Check the
track tension once each season of operation thereafter.

Adjust the track to have a two inch sag between a straight edge and the track.
Measure the distance half way between the drive sprocket and the rear idler with the
rest of the track tight. Backing the combine a few feet will tighten the track and allow
sag between the drive sprocket and rear idler.

Track tension is adjusted with hydraulic pressure to the rear idler fork. Remove the
valve shield and adjust the track tension as follows:

To avoid possible injury. always stand to the side of the adjuster

A fitting. Pressure in idler fork is held by ball check and bleeder plug. A
loose thread can allow either part to be ejected by lubricant
pressure. Before increasing track tension. tighten ball check and
bleeder plug to 45 to 50 Ib ft (61 to 68 Nm) torque. M185

Before disconnecting the track chain for any reason, be sure to first
relieve pressure in the hydraulic track adjuster. Follow the instruc-

A tions and cautions for reducing track chain tension. THIS MUST BE
DONE FOR SAFETY REASONS, EVEN IF THERE IS SLACK IN THE
CHAIN! M186

POWER GUIDE WHEEL DRIVE (If Equipped)


Hydraulic Wheel Motor Type
The hydraulic rear wheel drive provides additional propulsion for extreme operating
conditions (mud) and assistance to steering. This is accomplished by directing oil
flow from the hydrostatic drive high pressure tubes through a directional control valve
to a hydraulic motor in each rear wheel. The control valve provides a positraction
effect in both forward and reverse.

WHEEL MOTOR DRIVE CIRCUITRY 155L.B

When the Power Guide Wheel Drive is engaged, the amount of wheel torque obtained
is strictly a function of hydrostatic pressure. The higher gear selection you have the
higher your hydrostatic system pressure will be. For this reason, you will actually get a
higher percentage of power assist from the Power Guide Wheel Drive in the higher
gear ranges.

It is best to use your Power Guide Wheel Drive at all times when you are working in the
field. You gain these advantages: first, you will be operating at lower system pressure,
extending the life of your main hydrostatic transmission and gear train; second, you
will have the improved steering obtained through powering the rear steerable wheels;
and finally, running at lower systems pressure will normally lower the hydrostatic oil
temperature.

The power guide wheel drive is engaged


by a switch on the console that energizes
the solenoid to activate the valve. The
drive may be engaged or disengaged at
any time. When engaged the ground
speed will decrease.

For operating the combine on roads, switch the Power Guide Wheel Drive OFF to
obtain higher road speeds. The wheel motors automatically free wheel when the
Power Guide Wheel Drive is turned OFF. There is no limit to the distance the machine
can be operated on the road.

The factory installed attachment is built at 108 inch (2 743 mm) tread center. If a larger
tread center is desired, see the following illustrations.

Planetary Gear Type


The hydraulic rear wheel drive provides additional propulsion for extreme operating
conditions (mud) and assistance to steering. This is accomplished by directing oil
flow from the hydrostatic drive high pressure tubes through a directional control valve
to a hydraulic motor coupled to a planetary gear assembly in each rear wheel. Flow
controls limit the flow to the rear wheels and prevent over speeding the motors. A
positraction valve assures that oil is supplied to each rear wheel motor.

PLANETARY GEAR DRIVE CIRCUITRY

The power guide wheel drive is engaged by a switch on the console that energizes the
solenoid to activate the valve. The drive may be engaged or disengaged at any time.
When engaged the ground speed will decrease.

NOTE: Use the power guide wheel drive only when required by field conditions.

Do not engage (switch ON) drive unless planetary gear assembly is


coupled (drive position). If engaged while uncoupled and the prop-
h ulsion control lever is in a forward or reverse position, the oil flow is
. . directed to the rear hydraulic motors and the combine will not move
or will move slowly. If the drive is then disengaged (switch OFF) all
oil flow is directed to the front motor and the combine will suddenly
move or speed up. M251

NOTE: The factory installed attachment is built at 108 inch tread. If 120 inch tread is
desired, the four steel tubes which are included and shipped in the tool box must be
installed.

Planetary Gear Assembly


Each power driven guide wheel hub contains a planetary gear assembly, driven by
the external hydraulic wheel motor.

The planetary gear assembly includes a lockout to disengage the planetary gears.
When using guide wheel drive, the lockout must be in the engaged position (cap with
dimple facing out).

ENGAGED WHEEL HUB DISENGAGED WHEEL HUB

Engage or disengage the wheel hub planetary gear assembly by removing the two
bolts retaining the cap to the hub, turning the cap over and reinstalling the two bolts.

For operating the combine on roads, switch the Power Guide Wheel Drive OFF to
obtain higher road speeds and to reduce wear on the components. For operating on
roads 50 miles or more, you should switch the Power Guide Wheel Drive OFF and
DISENGAGE the drive hubs.

IMPORTANT: Never try to operate with hubs disengaged and with power guide wheel
drive switch ON. This could be harmful to the rear motors, cause heat and reduce
performance of the main transmission.

For towing the combine or trailering the combine with the guide wheels on the ground,
the lockouts must be in the disengaged pOSition (caps with dimple facing in).

Pressure Cooling System


Hot coolant can spray out if radiator cap is removed while system is
h hot. To remove radiator cap, let system cool, turn to first notch, then
.4tA wait until all pressure is released. Scalding can result from fast re-
moval of radiator cap. M141 B

1. The pressure cap on a pressure


cooling system has a control valve
that operates as a SAFETY RELIEF
VALVE to keep the pressure within the
system operating range. Operating
the engine without a pressure cap or
with a pressure cap that has a control
valve that is not set to operate at the
correct pressure, can cause damage.
2. A pressure cooling system decreases
the loss of coolant caused by
evaporation or bOiling. The system
must have good seals at the radiator cap, hoses and hose connections. It is im-
portant that you stop ALL LEAKS OF ANY SIZE as soon as the leaks are found. A
small leak can become a large flow when pressure is increased in the cooling
system. While the combine is in operation, a weak hose can break and cause injury
or damage. Check all hoses and hose connections with frequency. KEEP HOSES,
HOSE CONNECTIONS AND PRESSURE CAP IN GOOD CONDITION.

Radiator Coolant Level

Check the coolant level in the radiator every 250 hours of operation. Check the coolant
when the coolant is cold and the engine is stopped. The radiator must be full to the
bottom of the filler neck. If coolant must be added to the radiator, follow the procedure

Coolant Solutions
Combines shipped in North America have the cooling systems filled with a 50 percent
mixture of water and Ethylene Glycol solution.

FOR HOT WEATHER OPERATION - Use a solution of water and Cooling System
Treatment, Part Number 331-509 in the cooling system. The boiling point of antifreeze
solutions is higher than water, but the ability to transfer heat is less. As a result, during
hot weather operation, the engine will run cooler with a solution of water and Cooling
System Treatment in the cooling system. Never use water alone. The addition of
Cooling System Treatment helps protect the cooling system and cylinder sleeves
against corrosion, deposit formation, chemical attack and cavitation erosion.

IMPORTANT: Change the coolant solution every two years as recommended in this
manual. The heat generated by the diesel engine causes a natural change in the
inhibitors in the coolant which results in loss of corrosion protection. The loss of the
inhibitors may cause water pump cavitation and cylinder block erosion.

Except for hot weather operation, install only Ethylene Glycol coolant solution in the
cooling system. Use a good quality, high boiling point, Ethylene Glycol that does not
have any additives to stop leaks. Do not install any rust inhibitors that are not
approved. It is possible that the rust inhibitors and Ethylene Glycol will not mix and
work against each other to decrease corrosion protection, form deposits in the
cooling system and cause damage to the cooling system and the radiator.

Do not use a low boiling paint. alcohol type coolant solution. Because the boiling point
of alcohol is below the combine minimum operating temperature, loss of coolant from
evaporation can be too much.

IMPORTANT: When using Ethylene Glycol coolant solutions, always have a minimum
of 50 percent Ethylene Glycol coolant in the cooling system. Do not install more than
50 percent Ethylene Glycol in the coaling system unless the ambient air temperature
will be less than -34°F (-36°C). More than 50 percent Ethylene Glycol decreases heat
transfer and will cause the engine surface temperature to be more than normal.

Coolant System Filter Conditioner


The cooling system filter contains an
element which filters the coolant and
provides chemicals to condition the
coolant.

To maintain protection of the cooling


system from corrosion, deposit
formations, chemical attack and
cavitation erosion of cylinder sleeves the
coolant filter conditoner must be
changed after the first 100 hours, and
every 400 hours of operation thereafter.

Whenever the cooling system is drained and refilled, the coolant must be treated with
Case Cooling System treatment, Part Number 331-509. The coolant filter must also
be replaced. This will assure that the chemical concentration is returned to the same
level as before draining the system. Changing only the filter will not provide adequate
chemicals.

NOTE: Adding coolant "Stop Leak" to the cooling system will cause premature
plugging of the filter.

h Hot coolant can spray under pressure. Close valves before


~ removing filter. M153

Thermostat
NOTE: Do not operate the combine without a thermostat or with a defective

Draining the Cooling System

IMPORTANT: Never put coolant in a hot


engine because the difference in
temperature between the metal and the
coolant can cause cracks.

Clean the cooling system each time the


coolant is changed. Clean the system as
follows:
1. When the coolant is hot, open the
radiator drain valve, and remove the
engine block drain plug and the oil
cooler drain plug. Close the drain
valves and install the plugs after the system is empty.
2. Install a good type of radiator cleaner and fill the system with clean water. Follow
the instructions given with the radiator cleaner.
3. Remove the radiator cleaner solution. Flush the system with clean water.

Filling The Cooling System


To fill the cooling system. be sure all drains are closed.

4. Fill the cooling system with the coolant solution specified in this manual. Install
coolant system treatment.

Fill the radiator slowly (which allows air to escape) to the top of the filler neck below the
overflow.

5. Check the hoses. radiator. pump and water manifold for leaks.
Fill the coolant recovery reservoir to the hot FULL mark. Filling to this level allows air
trapped in the engine to escape. After the system has been brought up to temperature
and stabilized. add make-up coolant to bring level to the ADD mark on the coolant
recovery reservoir when cold.

NOTE: After the cooling system is completely filled, run the engine for approximately
five minutes to remove all air from the system. Check the coolant level and add coolant
if needed.

NOTE: Never pour coolant into the radiator if the engine is very hot or you can cause
damage to the engine, fill only through the coolant recovery reseNoir.

AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM


Air Cleaner Service Indicator
The air cleaner service indicator shows
when the primary filter element needs
service. Service the primary filter when
the service indicator shows an air
restriction of 25 inches of water (6.20
kPa) or when the service window has a
red signal. If either of these conditions
occur during the work day, you can
service the elements after the days work
is done.

After servicing the filter elements, reset A1904


the indicator by pushing up on the reset
button at the bottom of the indicator. The
red signal disappears when the indicator
is reset.

Air Filter
Your combine is equipped with a two-stage air filter system consisting of a primary
(outer) filter and a secondary (inner) filter.

The primary filter is a high capacity filter PRIMARY


designed to provide optimum protection
to the engine. The primary filter can be
cleaned or washed as required between
filter changes. See Air Filter Service for
more information.

The secondary (inner) filter gives extra


protection to the engine if there is
damage to the primary filter. The secon-
dary filter cannot be cleaned or washed.
Replace the filter if the filter has damage T93753
or is dirty.

Inspection
To prevent the entrance of dirt into the engine, it is absolutely essential that frequent
inspection of the flexible rubber connections from air cleaner to the intake manifold be
made. Hose or flexible connections must be replaced before they deteriorate. To
eliminate any undue strain on the connections, make sure the pipes line up. See that
all joints between the air cleaner and intake manifold are tight; this includes hose
connections, manifold joints and gaskets.

All gaskets must be in good condition and all clamps drawn up tight.

Promptly replace a defective service indicator.

Maintenance and care of the air cleaning system which includes the filter elements is
the responsibility of the customer.

The outside air filter must be cleaned. as required by operating conditions. to assure a
full flow of fresh air.

Conditions of high humidity and extreme dust require a more frequent cleaning of the
filter. Clean the filter at least every other day.

Unsnap the three filter retainer latches and remove the filter using the pull tab.

Either one of three methods can be used in cleaning the filter: tapping. compressed
air or water washing.

Tapping: After removing the filter. clean the filter by tapping it gently on a flat surface
with the dirty side down. being careful not to damage filter.

Compressed Air: Direct compressed air. at 35 PSI (241 kPa) maximum pressure.
through the filter from the back side. opposite the direction of the arrows on filter.

Cab air filters remove dust in the air, but are not capable of removing
chemicals used in spraying crops or in weed control. Many chemi-
cals used for these purposes are toxic when improperly used, and

A can be hazardous to operators and others in the area. Follow the in-
structions of manufacturers of both the equipment and the chemi-
cals regarding prohibitions against inhalation of dust or spray, per-
sonal hygiene practices, and other precautions noted by the man-
ufacturers. M108

ALTERNATOR CHARGING SYSTEM


Follow these general rules to prevent damage to the electrical system:
1. Before working on the electrical system, disconnect the battery cables.
2. Do not make a reverse battery connection.
3. When you use an auxiliary battery for starting, connect negative to negative
(combine chassis) and positive to positive.
4. When charging the combine batteries, disconnect the battery cables from the
battery terminals. Do not use a battery charging machine for starting the
combine.
5. Never operate the combine when the battery cables are disconnected.
6. When you do maintenance on the engine, prevent foreign material from entering
the alternator.
7. If you must do welding, disconnect the batteries. Put the ground cable as close
as you can to the weld area. Do not put the ground cable where the current can
flow through bearings or along channels with wire harnesses.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Alternator
The alternator is hinge-mounted on the
side of the engine.

The internal thermal cut-out switch is


designed to sense the internal tempera-
ture of the alternator. Upon reaching an
undesirable temperature, the switch dee-
nergizes the alternator. The ampere indi-
cator lamp and/or voltmeter on the instru-
ment cluster indicates the shutdown of
the alternator.

When the ampere indicator lamp comes


on or voltmeter reading drops, the operator should stop the engine and clean the al-
ternator screen and alternator. A suggested means is with an air hose.

In order to assure satisfactory operation of the charging system, make a periodic


check as follows:
(1) Keep proper belt tension.
(2) Mounting bolts must be tight.
(3) Keep the alternator screen clean.

To prevent possible damage to the system avoid the following:

1. Do not short-out or ground across the terminals of the alternator.

2. Do not operate the charging system with the output cable disconnected or with the
battery disconnected.

BATIERIES

The combine is equipped with two 12 volt low maintenance batteries. Check the
electrolyte level in each cell after every 100 hours or 3 months. Add distilled water to
get the electrolyte level up to the indicator under each cap. Keep the vent holes open
at all times.

When replacing the battery, make sure that the ground cable is connected to the
negative (-) terminal on the battery.

NOTE: To prevent damage to the battery, do not over tighten the battery hold down
bolts.

BATTERY ACID CAUSES SEVERE BURNS. Batteries contain sulfuric


acid. Avoid contact with skin. eyes or clothing. Antidote: EXTERNAL
- flush with water. INTERNAL - Drink large quantities of water or milk.
Follow with milk of magnesia. beaten egg or vegetable oil. Call phy-
sician immediately.
A EYES - Flush with water for 15 minutes and get prompt medical at-
tention.
BATTERIES PRODUCE EXPLOSIVE CASES. Keep sparks, flame and
cigarettes away. Ventilate when charging or using in enclosed
space. Always shield eyes when working near batteries. KEEP OUT
OF REACH OF CHILDREN. M144

351

9-11422
352
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Battery Cables and Terminals


The battery terminals must be kept clean and tight. A good method to clean the
terminals is to use Battery Saver, Case IH Part Number M20376 according to
instructions on the container. This cleaner needs no water. If Case IH Battery Saver is
not available, remove all corrosion with a wire brush, then wash with a weak solution of
baking soda or ammonia. Put some petroleum jelly or light grease on the terminals to
prevent more corrosion.
Inspect the battery cables for damage. Replace any battery cable that has damage.
To prevent hard starting, keep battery cables tight.

A When working around storage batteries. remember that all of the


exposed metal parts are "live". Never lay a metal object across the
terminals because a spark or short circuit may result. M145

When Batteries Are Not In Use


When the combine is not in use, the batteries will need a charge every six weeks. A
storage battery not in use will slowly discharge. A battery that has discharged can
freeze at low ambient temperatures and cause damage to the battery and combine.

Auxiliary Battery Connections


Engine can start with transmission in gear when neutral or safety
start switch is by-passed:
1. Do not connect across terminals on starter.
2. Attach a booster battery by connecting the positive terminal of the
booster battery to the "positive terminar provided or to the po-
sitive terminal of the machine battery. Connect the negative ter-
minal of the booster battery to the "negative terminar provided or
to the chassis of the machine.
Then use recommended starting procedures from operators seat.
3. When necessary. repair electrical system components promptly
so that "jump starting" will not be attempted.
Machine run-away can cause injury or death to operator and bystan-
ders. M107C

If the battery is discharged and the lights do not indicate some battery voltage, check
the battery for an open circuit with a voltmeter. Disconnect the negative (-) battery
cable from the battery. Connect the voltmeter between the negative (-) and the
positive ( +) battery terminals. If the voltmeter shows no voltage, the battery has an
intemal open circuit. Replace the battery. Connecting a battery charger or an auxiliary
battery to a battery with an open circuit can cause a spark inside the battery. The
spark can cause a battery explosion.
If the voltmeter shows a voltage, a battery charger or an auxiliary battery can be
connected to the discharged battery. 352

9-11422
353
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
When using a battery charger, make sure that the charger is turned off before
connecting to the battery. Charge the battery in a well ventilated area only. Do not try
to charge a frozen battery.

Battery explosion and/or damage to electrical components can


result from improper connection of booster batteries or charger.
Connect positive to positive and negative to negative. Externally,
battery acid can cause burns and blindness. and taken internally is
poison. M146

NOTE: The combine uses an electrical system with a negative ground. Making
connections to the electrical system in reversed polarity can cause damage to the
electrical system components.

Connect an auxiliary battery to the


combine battery in the exact order as
follows:

1. Connect the positive ( + ) cable clamp


of the auxiliary battery to the batteries
boost stud on the combine batteries.

NOTE: The cable clamps must not


make contact with any metal objects.

2. Connect one of the negative cable clamps to the negative (-) terminal on the
auxiliary battery.

3. Connect the other negative cable clamp to the combine chassis, away from the
batteries.

IMPORTANT: This is the only safe method to start the engine with an extemal power
supply. Any other method of starting can cause injury or death to the operator or other
persons. Do not connect auxiliary battery cables across the terminals of the starter.
Start the engine from the operators seat.

After the engine is started, disconnect the auxiliary battery cables in the exact order as
follows:
1. Disconnect the negative cable clamp from the combine chassis.

2. Disconnect the other negative cable clamp from the negative terminal of the
auxiliary battery.
3. Disconnect the positive cable clamp from the battery boost stud on the combine
batteries and then from the positive terminal on the auxiliary battery.

STORAGE PREPARATION
When your combine is not going to be used for some time. store the combine in a dry
protected place. Leaving your combine outside. open to the weather. will shorten its
life.

Follow the procedure below when your combine is placed in storage for periods up to
six months.

See your Dealer for the procedure on longer periods of storage.

1. Wash or clean and completely lubricate the combine. See the Lubrication Section
in this manual.

2. Clean the inside of the combine including the chaffer sieves. shoe sieves,
operators cab and instrument console.

3. Rodents can damage a combine in storage. Rodents will eat plastic. insulation or
rubber material, especially when coated with grain dust. Clean the areas where
rodents may nest. Leave access panels and doors open to remove convenient
nesting pockets. In some conditions. leaving moth balls will help discourage rats
and mice.

4. Run the engine long enough to completely warm the oil in the crankcase before
draining the oil. Remove and replace the oil filter as instructed. Fill the crankcase
with fresh oil and run the engine for two to five minutes.

5. Open the drain on the water separator fuel filter and drain the water and sediment
before closing. Fill the fuel tank with a premium grade diesel fuel. If this fuel grade
has not been used regularly. drain the fuel tank and fill with premium diesel fuel.
Run the engine for five minutes to circulate the fuel through the fuel injection
system.

6. Clean the air cleaner filter and body.

7. Drain, flush and fill the cooling system with the correct antifreeze mixture to protect
the combine to the lowest anticipated temperature. Add cooling system
conditioner and change the coolant filter conditioner.

8. Close the fuel shutoff valve between the water separator filter and fuel tank to
prevent fuel draining from fuel injection system into the fuel tank.

9. Plug the engine breather pipe and exhaust pipe.

10. The batteries do not need to be removed from the combine, except for extended
storage (more than 30 days) below freezing temperatures. The batteries must be
fully charged to prevent freezing. Disconnect the negative (-) ground cable at the
batteries to prevent possible discharge.

11. Store the combine where there is protection from light. Clean the tires before
storage. Support the combine so that the load is off the tires. If the combine is not
supported, inflate the tires at regular intervals.
