@MYPrecisionAg Is there a harness that hooks to a Versatile tractor yet?

With the seeding season delayed this spring due to the cooler weather there may be more late nights of seeding needing to happen to ensure everything is in the ground in a timely matter. Make seeding easier at night with the Tri-Side Ag under drill light kit or spraying easier at night with the sprayer boom light kit. 877-697-7322

@valleyfield2008 Ok good to know. We got 5370ac on our machine this year and only 2hrs total downtime so quite happy with reliability.

@Rayzerray91 Gear box by chopper on drivers side has just a sweat on ours. Gearbox on feederhouse is making a different noise after 50 hours. Dealer ordered one in but we still running the original one.

So a bit of an update on AF11. We have 160 thrashing hours on it. Haven’t had a real call out for a mechanic yet. But do have a very slight leak on a gearbox. So on capacity I would say 40 percent increase over 9250.Less than that in the logged stuff. Automation seems really good

@Archy1958 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel 10% and avg 40-45bu. Turns out 2inches of rain doesn’t make a great crop lol

@Rayzerray91 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel How's it running? Heard it was very dry your way.

Finally gave up my seat to take some action shots. Awesome machine.

@xtreme9530 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel Replaced the 8700’s and old case with this and two 9260’s with 50ft heads

@Rayzerray91 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel Did you replace anything with it or just add to the fleet ?

@stinkynutss So far. Big test will be when we get it into canola.

@Rayzerray91 How do you like the Set up so far is it worth being called a Zero Loss Machine

Feed the Beast #af11 #macdon

@allansoutar Depends on your situation. We went from 4 to 3 so it’s worth it to have af11. Doing about 40% more than the 9260’s. all with 50ft

@Rayzerray91 So worth the money over them?? Haven’t heard anything bad yet about AF/CR 11

@allansoutar 100%. runs circles around 9260’s.

@Rayzerray91 Living up to expectations so far?

@carter_majeau @AllamFarmer Ya fair enough, 1800-2000 seems to be the average for it but. We had 3 8700 w/45ft and a 9240 w/45ft last year and I think are doing about the same this year with 50ft on one af11 and 2 9260’s. drought this year so it’s hard to compare. 34ac/hr just sounds awesome lol

@Rayzerray91 @AllamFarmer Should measure bu/hr instead of acres/hr, only way to measure year to year

Gotta love seeding season

Genius or stupid?

Do you need an extra hand at harvest? Nope! I got this #robotics #remotecontrol @agritradetoday

@Thacker1Dallas We put kondex in on claas machines. They are wearing less then the OEM ones we had. they do a very good job. Never had the stationeries 100% engaged all year and still chopped amazing.

@Rayzerray91 Which chopper knives did you get? We tried the kondex straw claw on a combine and I hate them. Wore out in half the time the case ones did.

@AllamFarmer @mattgreensheave 2022’s. first time a mechanic showed up when we go the machines he kinda cringed when he found out the build dates

Just another claas combine doing claas combine things…

@mattgreensheave When they are running they are awesome machines, pound the acres, minimal losses and always happy with the sample. But more downtime then our previous 9240’s, I can fix feeder belts but anything else it needs a tech to come out which is adding up.

@Rayzerray91 Just a bad day or you’re not impressed with the claas?
