For the length of the video I did not included but I did actually film it twice where it cut a limb and another time an old fence post and it just stop the cutter. It does a really nice job in harvesting.

It is a nice farm. I have view videos of their operation on the channel. Their corn harvest is linked at the end of the video. I also have their corn chopping operation filmed and their 9570RX on a high speed John Deere disk in a video called tillage like a boss.

I did not realize they use Schumacher sickles on these heads, but it makes sense with both being German companies. As soon as he said that, I was even more impressed. Can't afford anything this fancy, but any platform header I ever have will have an SCH cutterbar. They are very nice. As for the TruFlex, Geringhoff won't be winning any trophies for beauty in design, but it looks like it does a great job for what it's meant to do, and that's what really matters!

@tylerhoban4909 3 жыл бұрын

I was, being impressed until he said schumacher cutter bar. We had a massey head with it. It was horrible, we tried both fixes to solve the issues, one of them being to turn everything upside down to get closer to the ground. In the end we gave up and went to macdon. Hope they figured it out. Odds are they won't be back here. Also gave up the corn heads years ago to high of maintenance and didn't do as good of a job.

Man, I love to see that beanfield, no rows.... remember dad back in the 70’s was one of the first guys planting soybeans with a wheat drill, and run that JD 7720 thru those beans in the Fall like he was cutting wheat.

@bigtractorpower 3 жыл бұрын

This farm plants their soybeans on 15 inch rows with a John Deere planter. They plant at an angle and then harvest on another angle to feed the beans in well. Some farms in the area do use drills to no till soybeans in the wheat stubble but it risks pinning straw in the seed trench. The 7720 is one of the all time great John Deere combines.

Here in Michigan we run 2 of those heads . They are really great for low poded beans . The flexing head and cutter bar is perfect for our rolling hills and creek bottom land. We have about 3000 acres on each head this year between wheat harvest and soybean harvest . We run ours on a johndeere 9870sts and a s680 combine . Nice video stay safe and farm on my friends !

@bigtractorpower 3 жыл бұрын

The TruFlex does a good job. I have filmed this header in wheat and canola as well. The air system is used for saving grain that might other wise fall out on the ground the air pushes it into the header. This air system is extra helpful in soybeans and canola where the seed pod tends to shatter.
