Combines 1688 burned

[RAB]

Are you sure it started in the cabIJ My 1680 burned this year after it had been parked. Insurance guy said it appeared to have started when the hot cable going from the batteries to the starter shorted on a diesel line. He says he has seen quite a few 1680's burn this way. In our case the cable was still welded to the steel line. The link below is to a pic of the machine. http:__russellbonner.home.mindspring.com_1680-2.JPG

hey yeah i'm sure it started in the cab, a friend of mine showed up about 5-10 minutes after it started and said that only the cab and the feeder house were burning. Eventually spread across entire machine on the left side then to the motor compartment and was extinguished before the right side burned
