Customers biggest issue is capacity. Wanted to see a combine that can average 26 to 30 acres an hour. With cruise pilot engaged, 760tt and 40 ft Macdon, was averaging 6.5 mph at 85% engine load in 55 bu beans. This put it at 28.2 acres an hour. This was to prove that the combine could cut soys at that capacity of acres/hour. I am by no means suggesting you should cut beans at 6.5 mph. Proper head should be a 45 ft to slow machine down and still feed enough product. In the background you will see a competitors Claas 7 machine with 30 ft head. Sample was clean and did I a screen test behind combine to prove nothing was going over the rotors or sieves. As much as this is totally extreme, even I was incredibly impressed!! JN
