There’s no better combine than what you have for a starter. Very simple and reliable. If you plug them up, it’s simply not ready. It does sound like you’re feeder chain is loose, can hear it slapping towards the end. Good job!
Blowing too much air on an air filter will damage it. As someone said, inside out is best. I use an air compressor nozzel & always blow at a 45 degree angle from the outside. (I've never had great luck blowing from inside out.)
So is this your first crack at farming? Im looking into starting a small farm as soon as i get out of the army here in about 3 months just wondering on how hard it actually is to get it started worked on plenty of dairy farms when i was younger
This is my first time really getting into it. My grandfather has farmed all his life, but the last few years he's partnered with a neighbor. The neighbor would harvest and plant so we would be responsible for all the tillage. Last fall i started getting serious into it and my grandfather helped me buy a planter and combine, so this is the first year where it has all really been up to me to get things done. So I got lucky coming into an existing family farm, but even though I was taking more responsibility it was definitely a lot of learning from mistakes so hopefully next year will be a lot easier.
I started in 2022 on my own and it has been a blast, did around 50 acres of hay last year and I’m currently ending this hay season with around 150. I just bought a 1967 Gleaner E with a platform head and a corn head and plan on doing wheat and corn next year, there has been a lot of ups and downs over the past two years but you live and you learn from your mistakes. Just keep at it and don’t give up and you will make it!!
Great machines! We've used them for years. If you set the gathering chains together (each row side matching) you should get better feeding. Where do you farm?
@@classicdiesel7.3Did you get manuals with the equipment? They're quite helpful. LMK if you have questions as we've run 1440s 1640s and their heads 863, 963, 1063, (and 4 row versions) 1020, Demco 365, 650, and Case 2394
@@classicdiesel7.3I think we have them all, just got the 1063 one. The only maintenance item we didn't have quite right is that the stalk rollers need grease every 5 hours (instead of daily).
Couldn’t tell where you were running it from in cab, but your brother was running the head way too close to the ground. All it takes is one little ditch or hole in the ground for one of your front tires to dip in and you can destroy the snouts on that head. The closer you cut below the ears, the less stuff the stalk rolls have to chew on and the head won’t be the limiting factor.
