    Thank you Jon! Your 570R looks much cleaner than ours. I’ve found these generic metric idler pulley bearings don’t last very long. About half the life of the old 9600’s

    Great video. I had an inspection several weeks ago with the JohnDeeretechnician. Just finished changing out the water pump. Everything else can wait till later. Picked up most of the parts last week. We should be ready as soon as we dry out from all the rain.

      If I understand correctly, can you spread the chaff and still windrow the straw with your combine?

      The chaff from cleaning can be spread or dropped independently of the chopper in back

    I've always said, JD makes the best grain drills, I prefer the double disc opener style vs the cut and scatter ones.
    Always good to check everything over before hand!!!
    If you don't have a thermometer, run it for a bit, shut it down and put your hands on everything you can.. you'll still find most of the things that will be issues.

    Point one. There’s not one John Deere fella that could do what you just did because they’re just pretty boys who have to get their Mums permission to do anything.
    Point two. Us case guys clean our headers (I think the yanks call them combines) down after harvest and clean all the leftover drinks and snacks out of the cab before we put them to bed for the winter. Maybe not necessary with a lexion.
    Everything was fairly relevant though. Thanks.🇦🇺👍

      This will be the first winter with a shop So I can clean the combine after harvest instead of trying to clean it the day before it goes through the field. I am not washing in zero or sub zero.
      I tried to demo a Case but the Lexion ate it before I could get to try it....
