My family uses a 1998 9610 on a 1990 12 row 30 inch corn head. I didn’t know the JD 12 row was designed so long ago. I think these combines will continue to be rebuilt and used for a long time.

i think we can all agree corn harvest is the most satisfying thing in agriculture

Well she's still going strong. Usually only see an 8 row corn head on those. A 12 row is impressive. Handles it quite well.Thanks Jason👍. GO BTP!!💪

Jason i'm not even kidding here, the anniversary 9600 was the very next combine we added to our farm to help the 8820 T2 getter done. Legend machines.

Tell that combine operator to put at least one fire extinguisher on the combine. Didn't notice any. First (and only) combine fire I had was on a JD 95. There's nothing like using your jacket, shirts, gloves, & pants to put out an engine fire in the middle of a corn field on a cold day. Great idea using an air compressor & spray nozzle to clean off the combine/header. Leaf blowers are more portable. Great video!

Good to see a 9600 can still handle a 12 row and I love that shop truck at the end.

This farm must maintain their equipment quite well.

We are running a 1991 model John Deere 9400 combine with a 643 corn head and 922 soybean header in West TN harvesting corn, wheat, and soybeans. Coming from a 1982 John Deere 6620 the maximizer is like a dream to run. We just harvested our 5th crop with it running somewhere around 1000 acres through it this year with very minimal downtime.

Great to hear. A farm I film at made the jump from a 4420 to a 9500 this year. They definitely liked the upgrade.

@countrygent4

Жыл бұрын

The 6620 was a great soybean machine but a 643 was to much corn head in heavy corn and it was too wide for a 443 with the 23.1 or 28.1 tires. It cylinder would handle it but not enough separating capacity behind it - you were crawling thru the field.

The 9600 is a modern day classic harvester.

I actually see a couple of potential reasons for a 12 row on a Maximizer. Really low yields, and that is not a slight, yields aren’t necessarily profits. They grow dryland corn in some very low rainfall areas. Another good reason would be maintaining a 3:1 perfect ratio controlled traffic farming scenario. Their are plenty of DB90 / 120 frames no longer in use with high speed 60’ bars doing the same job. You can get ultra wide planting fairly easily, and their are plenty of 400-500 horse tractors around, a 20 year old 9620t would do the job, even if you go 20” spacing. That leaves you with a 30’ limit on heads. Perfectly filled by a 9600 or 9610. I’m looking for a great kid who has been active in FFA and 4-H to set up with 5-600 acres of cheap rent and some of my old equipment. I don’t sell or trade anything because I’ve had it all tore down and rebuilt twice and I can’t part with it. It’s still as good as new. We have to get kids in to this game who didn’t have a daddy and grandpa plowing the road for them. Good God when I kick the bucket my kids will be getting the world handed to them.

I bought one in August of 1990. Some days we harvested 1.4 million lbs in a day in 230 bu corn. Stopping about sundown to refuel. Many around here had 10 row heads using duels. This cost $10,000 for the heavy duty axles.
