Combines front beater bearing on 860

[ski_whiz]

The beater bearings can both be easily changed without pulling wheels. Pull sprocket on drive end, unbolt housing and remove by using bolts threaded into casting holes to push housing away from side of machine. Be sure to change seal inside of housing behind bearing (towards beater). Bolts retaining housing to machine may push out into stone trap.

we had a 750 and the bearings went out. someone (can't remember who) told us to take the whole beater out and cover the holes with some sheet metal. it worked fine without it in corn and soybeans.
