Combines 8010 is in the shed

Tony, I am glad to hear that things concluded well after all the trials. I guess my biggest reservation with the new technology is that everything seems so inter-related. One thing can bring down so many others. In your case it was a seal in a rotor drive. In my neighbors case they took a 9660 back to the dealer because they couldn't get the computer right. No power and all sorts of other problems. They finally found a "kink" in a wiring harness and after correcting that the machine ran great......for the last two days of their 20 day harvest. I welcome the new technology, but I am surely more cautious about embracing it. Chuck

my thoughts exactly they need to divide the systemes a little but the design doesn't allow it to be. two other 8010's around here had seals in teh chopper pto and unloader do the same thing. I think they need a new seal design.
