I just love to see you struggle with them at least I’m not the only one

Yay!! Tony is teaching us "WORKING WORDS" today!! 🤣🤣 But in all seriousness I detested changing concaves.

Hope y’all enjoyed the concert No matter what you drive, drive a Firestone 👍👍 Glad you’re getting some rain 🌧 I feel for those who need it Goodness knows we Need rain 🌧 out here in Commiefornia

This was very good, thank you for posting , I run a JD 9670 and its similar

On ours if you put the rotor in neutral and then use a screw driver you can turn the rotor as you slide the concaves out and you don’t have to take the top bar out. It’s pretty easy once you get the hang of it. We swap just our front concave when going from barley to corn so that trick saves you taking a lot of stuff apart

I like the tool and part organization on the door above the tool box.

Somewhere there is a gleaner guy thinking to himself... "🤔 I probably could of had my rotor out in the time it took you to change your concaves."

The good ole good year Tik-tok... only watched that about 500 times 😂😂👌

Gotta have work’n words plus blood and throw something for added bounce for a great video on a hot day!!! Damit man. 😎

I have to change concaves twice a year and I find it easier if you put a thin piece of plywood on top of the augers so you can slide them easier. Especially for the front and back ones.

I'm with you, I've never had luck with Goodyears on anything. I know people that do, but never me.

I had to you laugh at your comment on deere engineers. As a former JD tech I always said it working on them 😂

Great awesome video, go gleaner,

have you ever attached filler bars to the back side of the round bar concaves. looks like that would be a lot easier to do but not sure if it works for wheat. and thanks for a great video. much appreciated.

My apologies For my poor manners, I forgot to say: Thank You for all you and the many other farmers do year in and year out to grow the crops that feed us! I’m not a farmer, I’m retired from the Wastewater industry. I love the channel and how you explain the way you do things and what equipment is used. Ohhh an just so you know, not all of us here in Commiefornia are Purple haired morons. Some of us actually Love this Country!! Keep up the great work and stay safe!

Dude your intro is badass

Those are a bastard to do. Still easier than changing fuel filters on a Gleaner. The only thing we do different is we stack the concaves on a pallet in the order they got in and lift the pallet up with the fork lift. This way you can grab them, turn and slide them in, instead of lifting them off the ground.

Slid a piece of plywood under the concaves it makes going in and out much easier

Put your rotor in neutral and make sure it’s raised up all the way

Could you show a closer look at your parts setup next to your combine toolbox sometime. Might want to do the same with mine looked pretty slick

Idk where to find it but there’s a controller to open and close them there and it lifts that plate out of your way instead of takin it off every time

If you had a Gleaner that would only take 10 minutes. Lol

time 12.47 Take the bolt out by your yellow crow bar and that sheild comes off. Keep the concaves on the round bar and slide to the middle or push to the outside

Great video. Lot less cussing then expected. How many beer breaks???

I figure you may already know this but if you would of just got up in the cab and tightened your concave clearance it would of lifted that top plate you took off to slide them out. I always tighten my clearance up before changing the concaves

Couldn’t you put the concaves on the tightest setting or does it not bring the z channel up far enough

Wooow that’s a lot of work. On a case it takes 5 minutes

This content is an automatic 👍

What brand is your electric ratchet and do you like it?

Still waiting for the barn /shop tour

Run the spacers like that for beans and corn?

I’m 71 I guess I’d have to give up wheat as hard as you have to work to change the concaves

This shits just the same as construction. Make the engineers come and do the job before they design it. Said it for years

Must be a grain farmer thing ive never had to change concave on my gleaner s77. But really what else a grain farmer gonna do the other 10 months outta the year. 🤷🏼‍♂️😂😂

If I could have helped,would have 👋🇺🇸

How is it going? Just saw this video of yours, would be great to get in touch with you about this, I think we have a solution that you would love. What would be the best way to get in touch?

If you take a small ratchet strap and strap the z bar up...to the gear on the unload auger above your head...it will give you the room to slide in and out and won't mess up your sensors. We'd like to send a left handed wrench to whoever engineered that concave system. Terrible job.

I don't think it matters what color the equipment is the engineers don't plan on it need to be fix.

Hi there I'm surprised that nobody has said this yet, but you don't have to remove the support beam. All you had to do was turn the rotor by hand to free the threshing module from touching the concaves. There is a sweet spot to allow it to come out.

A few cuss words always make thing come out easier.

wouldn’t want do that job twice a day shit i would run out of fingernails

Well how the hell are ya ya big bucket of cold semen?? Those concaves or as I like to call them knuckle fuckers if you put a rectangular piece of 1/2 inch plywood on top of those little augers it makes taking off and putting on the concaves a lot easier.. you can easily use the pry bar and use a wood wedge to raise and lower it by tapping it on the plywood. Hope it helps you out..
