I leave two spaces between picture or text, but you are getting there!

One of the best combines built! The only fault I ever found was the cutterbar. If it had had a Claas one fitted it would have been a better machine. The later ones did have a similar one to Claas.

With that combine, in laid crops, you have to use the reel in front of the cutterbar to lift the crop onto the bed. This can cause loss of ears in front of the combine, one of the highest areas of loss. On the Claas cutterbar, the lifters do the work and the reel only moves the crop from the lifters to the bed auger. Far less chance of loss.

I have seen the New Holland operating in short hanging barley with more ears on the floor than grain in the tank and a Claas in the same field clearing the ground.

But that is only my opinion. I was happy with either when demonstrating and have spent many happy hours combining rape with one.

That is a nice piece of kit.

It's the improved version of the one we have, ours allready has the same cutter bar.
Best regards
