Combines Split Drive Shaft 2206

[RW]

Yes we had that same problem last year year. We had just got this head new after we already had 100 acres off. we only had a few hundred acres left when it broke the driveshaft. We ran are head in high all year. We had to have are shaft pressed out by a machine shop. The shaft quarter turned its self in coller in the gearbox and then sheared its self off. We then found out that their was a certain serial n break that the mount for the gear box was incorrect.

I found the same problem in mine this fall. lifted the shield and the shaft fell out. called the service manager immediatly to tell him but we haven't done the fix yet. Does it need a new mountIJ did they cover it under warranteeIJ

Hi,Bob it's just me returning with a little more info. Yes they replaced it under warranty. This shaft slides sraight across to the main sprocket that is housed in the black oil bath on the outside of the head. Hope this helps.
