    Raccoons in the fan shroud have become a bigger problem with hydraulically driven fans because they don’t slip like a belt driven fan. They usually destroy the fan and cooling package. Good idea to inspect fan shroud area when checking fluids before start up, especially in colder months. The raccoons also damage wiring harnesses and sound deadening foam. I’ve seen it be a much more gruesome mess to deal with than what you encountered. So glad that was not the case for you guys. As always, great video.

    Another fascinating video. The last JD combine I was inside of was my 8820 when I was still farming. Even with rotor type separating, a lot of the newer machines still look somewhat familiar.

    There's absolutely no way he shut that off in two seconds. If the machine was under load that separator will stop within 2-3 seconds without total destruction taking place inside. I've actually ran the same thing in one of our combines. I heard a clunk in the feederhouse and shut everything off right then. The s tine shot down through the stone trap bent the front plate on the transmission, pulled it back in the feed accelerator into the rotor busted two threshing elements then busted a separating grate where it exited the rotor. Replacement parts were two threshing elements, a threshing grate, a set of3 tines, stone trap door, and plastic door that covers the threshing grate that broke. No damage to the feed accelerator. I enjoy your videos.

  • @oldbluedog
    @oldbluedog Год назад +3

    We must be pretty stupid or tight here in Australia 🇦🇺 90% of those bent n broken part would have been hammered straight and cracks welded before being reinstalled with the original bolts.
    It is an insurance job which does give a loot if latitude in a repair and JD central is up the road for you.
    We are pretty well on the end of a very long supply chain and most work is farmer completed not workshop.
    The contrast is interesting as is the prices over there. Much higher here based on the exchange rate and again distance.
    Thanks for the videos.
    I’d post the raccoon 🦝 as a separate video. One of the funnier things I’ve seen in a while.
    Had a tractor catch fire recently on starting after rodents made themselves at home in the starter harness under the dash. We got it out but the harness was cooked. Got to love the critters.

    • @pootthatbak2578
      @pootthatbak2578 Год назад

      Replacing all the parts with new versus hammering straight/ welding back together probably depends on the owners insurance or overall cash on hand. This company survives by doing these sorts of repairs, so first, you must consider who we are viewing. For every combine you see in this shop, there are probably 5 that stay in the field until a local mechanic or farmhand fixes it.

    • @ShainAndrews
      @ShainAndrews Год назад

    Let me guess that hardships as to fitting rails in place and mainly bolting them to the main frame were associated with the fact that you guys loosened up the cabin, the cockpit right above the place you were in and lifted it on a jack, resting it on the structure of the frame of the combine harvester, due to which the frame was slightly skewed, and therefore the holes for the bolts did not completely and did not match everywhere

    wonder, at the factory new construction betting some of these "internal" components go on before its inside all that. Would love to see the factory footage .. then again, maybe not, it would be so much easier ...lol .
    good work and good puzzling to get it all back in place.
