Combines Which Rotary was itIJ

[johnboy]

John here in Australia massey marketed the class for years but they stayed in class colours and name.Our neighbour had a 114 CS and i spent a bit of time with it. They did pull the V6 out of it to do rework but it was reinstalled.The CS system was great in damp conditions but in our drier climate it could run into problems with cracking beans and breaking straw up badlly.The 114 was also a little underpowered.john

That is correct! Technically the "CS" machines were not a rotary design. They had a conventional threshing cylinder followed by 8 separation cylinders. This allowed the operator to tune the separation process separate from the threshing process. Massey may have experimented with the Claas CS machines, but did not market them in America.
