Combines R 42 vs R 65

[Silver4life]

I have no experience with a R-62 or R-65 but do know a little about a R-42. What crops do you run, and yields and heads that you runIJ I run a early model 42 and am well pleased with the results. Although if you want 65 numbers with a 42 or any brand that much smaller you will not be pleased. If you could give us some of your settings that you are running. I have been commented at the elvators with such clean samples, and the speed at which I run. Honestly it makes my neighbor quite mad to see the speed and quality of job I do with little or no loss. You might think that is a load of cr-p because of the problems that you are having but have faith. If you give us a chance I'm sure we will be able to help you!

I have a 62 and have the some of the same problems you have with your 42, dirty sample in soybeans and rotor loss in corn. I think all gleaners operate about the same so I don't believe there would be much difference in setting a 62 vs a 42, just more capacity. I have not been around a 9450 but there are a lot of the older 9500 9600 Deeres around here that everyone seems to get along good with. You might try to find someone who has one and ask them how they like their 9450.

Not sure why you guys are having trouble with dirty grain samples, maybe you're not running enough air. Beans should be set on 6 or higher. like silver4life our elevator always comments on our clean beans and corn when we unload. See many deere owners dump there trucks and it looks like they're selling part of their land with their grain. Keep asking questions on this site and I'm sure someone will be able to solve your problem. I know I have been helped a bunch.

G'Day lightening Just wondering if you might have a small seeds kit installed in the bottom air (sieve) ductIJ If you do, when is is folded up out of the way is can affect the air flow through that duct and cause dirty samples!!! (have had some experience there!!) you need to take it out completely to help with air flow. Other wise you might need to see if your air spliter if set right! All that area needs to be spot on for it to work right! Rolf

Don't know of any owner of R50 or 52 that was disapointed with the switch up to a 62. I believe you said once that your 42 is juiced up so maybe you have something closer to a 52 now or maybe more. In that case I would say the 62 would be more forgiving if engine stayed stock. In your case of whatever phenomenon you are fighting I'm not sure what difference you will see. We have little to no trouble getting perfect samples of nearly any crop around hear. I would love for you to get a JD out and do a head to head comparison with your Gleaner.

this might help running 40 bushel beans concave set at 4, speed 630, chaffer set at.5 inch, seive set so odd bean caught in seive then open just a fraction. this is my third rotary n5,r50 now 96_r52 hyperized

I have the R62 running a six row 30" corn head. I was in the field with a 9410 JD. It left me in the dust. The JD header is all over top of the Gleaner. My next header will be the JD 963. The JD runs a lot smoother. There is no rumbling in the JD machine.

You only have a 6 row 30" on a R62 and you can't run as fast as any other 630. Sounds like you have some tuning to do. Give us some particulars and you may get some help. Must be time to get rid of some used up parts not to mention what some hyperizing would do.
