7700--Good machine if you find one that's been taken care of and maintained. A couple areas to look at are: structure of frame under cab and motor area, the full grain tank can take a toll on these areas, the sheet metal may show some fatigue; the sheet metal enclosing the straw walkers, check near where it attaches to the body of the machine, an out of balance chopper will tear that up in a hurry; check the variable speed cylinder adjustment setup, the chain and sprockets drives to move the shieves in and out are sometimes troublesome; and one more good spot to check is the gear box at the top of the clean grain elevator that runs the auger going into the grain tank, wiggle the pulley and the auger inside, corn can work on these pretty good if they aren't greased well, we always used corn head grease in ours. If you have any other questions on the machine, let me know. Farny
