Still have my Gleaner K2. We moved on to Deere because of dealer support. . Well over 100 miles to a Gleaner dealer. The K2 did us a great job through the 80s and 90s. We keep it for a backup now. Still runs good
I can remember my grandfather (retired farmer at the time) telling me more than 40 years ago, that Gleaner made the best combines way back then. Great video!
Love Love Love gleaners I have owned 3 of them. A K2, L2, and now run a 1985 N5. Can’t say enough about them. Easy to set up and use. Thanks for the great videos. Always look forward to seeing your new videos.
Cleanest sample, lightweight in each class, simplicity in design. One of the best combines ever built. Had a neighbor who had a r65 and he could get the rotor out of the machine in less than 2hrs. The improvements over the years on these combines can be added to the older ones as well. Great video btp!!!!
Beautiful silver seeders. Not to hard to have a clean sample if you’re willing to sacrifice yield.

@@jordanl7489 You are correct when it comes to Deere or Case etc but with a Gleaner it's not hard to get a clean sample without sacrificing yield. It's the nature of the accelerator rolls and that makes clean samples easy. It allows the majority of the trash to be blown out before it gets to the sieves. Even in an old L it is fairly easy because you have a two stage cleaning fan which blasts the majority of the trash out before it reaches the sieves and you have a visual tailings sample that you can constantly monitor without leaving your seat or bending down to open a door. You just glance to your right and it's right there, no door to open and no stretching to see like an old Deere.
@@SilverGleanerMost just don't get it, it's hard to get a bad sample with a gleaner.
I grew up driving an old GH Gleaner on our farm on the Palouse of eastern Washington…loved the old girl!
My father had some of the 1960's model Gleaners . We did not have a combine at all, for about 30 years, until I purchased a 1978 Gleaner L. It runs a 20' grain table with great efficiency in both wheat and soybeans. Our first season with it, in wheat, it seemed to be the one reliable machine we had. I am enamored with Gleaners. I won't have it any other way. Clean sample, light weight, easy operation, simplistic yet efficient design.
Summer job for four years in college was running C2s; 1966-69. Oklahoma to N. Dakota. Great memories. Miller Farms out of Beaman, Iowa.
11:15 to 11:19 "Gleaner has always porduced the best Grain sample" Best thing you have ever said! Dont worry JD youll get there :) Great vid as always!
Also we have a Gleaner R55 Combine on our Family Farm
I see very very little left behind in the field by Gleaner combines. Last fall I was filming an S67 in corn. There was barely a kernel to be found out the back. Then I walked through the standing rows of corn to film the return pass saw more corn on the ground from self shelling in the standing rows. I filmed it for a future video 😁
john dycus my Friend, hardly a sliver seeder, You should get or find a demo of a Gleaner Combine I’ll think you’ll change your mind about them! You won’t be disappointed!
Oh man!!! You hit a home run with this video!!!!! Some underrated Gleaners! I like all farm machinery but Gleaners are my favorite as far as combines!
My dad worked at a grain elevator for 33 years. Farmer who had Gleaner combines always had the cleanest samples. I think they are just beautiful machines.
Gleaner are the only combine to deliver a #1 wheat sample.
I worked for a harvesting crew in 1987 out of Seward NE, and they ran Gleaner L2's. Due to a staff shortage of people with .... umm. ... driver's licenses ... I mostly drove trucks while we were cutting. But sometimes the owner/dad of this family operation would let me cut the first load or 2 of the long days in KS while he caught up on sleep. They are on Facebook, still cutting wheat, still using Gleaners. The son, who is now the owner, was 13 or 14 when I worked for them. He know his way around those L2's mechanically ... but did not have a driver's license.
I run an R52, have had a 7720 and TR85, this is by far the best.
I remember the l gleaner as a kid which has been long since parked now we run 3 n6 gleaners which when spring wheat rolls around I’ll send a video to you
Grew up with that exact machine, bought it new in 84. Great memories …!
Gleaner, cleanest grain in the truck!!! Grew up in them. C2, E,F, M, MH, MH2, L, ... They all worked their butts off!!!
Its amazing how much work they do.. have a good one buddy and take care.
The sound of that R60 when it revs up to full throttle is amazing!!
Not a deutz. Sounds like a repower maybe a cummins
Best looking combines ever made, sadly we didn't get Gleaners in Europe.
Really liked r60 and r75, they look just look so huge and wide and that wide cab roof is also cool feature 😎
It's maybe colour which make these combines look so different, always liked White tractors too, especially 70's and 80's Field Boss-series.
L3 Gleaner Still pounded out the crop, corn, beans and small grain
My dad had an E Gleaner. Great combine. Did well in weedy soybeans.
Great video! I've been waiting for this. We still have my dad's Gleaner F with the Allis 301. Still runs. Legendary machines.
Gleaner and Challenger. Only the best!
seeing you be upset about the noodles but then immediately going to improve them is amazing and inspiring to me! i would've given up but you didn't and i really respect that! I love your videos. And it's an honor to have you visit our channel, we can discuss more about our experiences in harvesting and building farms.
My favorite combines!
There are quite a few Gleaners in my area of central KS.. Live about 10 miles from an AGCO plant..
Have an R62 for wheat and soybeans.. And an R60 for some wheat and mostly corn..
Still have a 1of 2 N6 my dad n grandpa bought brand new in the 80s when they custom harvested..
Has close to 10,000 hrs on it.. Could go to the field anytime to this day.. But havent used it in 10 yrs
they were better than ours, ran 4 of them for two years, then ran the n7's for 5 years, gave up and went back to L3's. now we have s77's and s97, best combines we have ever ran.
I've always like gleaners, My family had a old m2 and before that a C2. Didn't get to see the m2 in action a whole lot since we switched to beef cattle when I was young. It sat in the shed for about ten years before we ended up selling it and for sitting that long it fired right up it looked like it never aged.
We use an S88 on our farm and harvest corn and soybeans with it. Gleaner has been in our family since the 70s.
I like the old gleaner,case,JohnDeere,and more old antique combines
I like finding the classics.
Still using a 1983 L3. Thanks for the great videos.
Very cool. The L3 is a good combine. I hope to film an L and L2 some day. I have L4 sales lit. I wonder if an L4s are still going.
Wooo!!! Gleaner...the sexiest combines ever made.
The smoke off the old ones is what made them great
@@thebeast8285 They ran some high rpm diesels, some farmers got scared off. But our L2 was a great investment
@@heatmoon Slower rpms than an old IH 1420. The L2 ran at 2400 rpm loaded, the early N6 ran at 2600 rpm loaded while the 1460 IH ran at 2500 rpm loaded and the 1420 ran at something like 3000 or 2800 rpm loaded. Later N6 ran at 2400 rpm loaded. A deere 6600 ran at 2500 rpm loaded.
@@SilverGleaner i remember our new n6's would rev to the moon and back, lost 2 of them first year. 2700 at high idle, no load... boooommm.
@@gleanerman2195 Early N6? Reminds me of the old joke. Patient: "Doc, it hurts when I do this", Doc: "then don't do that". :)
Amazing machines, thank you for putting this together!
In the late 70s and early 80s my partners and I had 4
Allis Chalmers Dealerships in the Palouse hill country of eastern Washington and Northern idaho
Wow. Thank you for sharing. You must have seen some awesome iron like MH2 combines. What were you big sellers? I would like to hear more about your dealerships. Could you email me at toytractortimes@gmail.com
I grew up not far from Reardan, WA. Did you run the dealer in Airway Heights near Spokane? Those Gleaners were nice combines but I think a lot of the farmers that had them went too fast or didn't have them set right because they tended to drop a lot out the back. Some folks called them "Silver Seeders". They sure seemed to run smooth. Really liked the way the unloading auger rotated out to unload.
We have been running Gleaners from 1955 till today running as many as 12 L3's at one time. We are running 2 S77's with 35 ft. mac dons and one S97 with a 40 ft. 9255 dyna flex. We harvest corn, beans and wheat in the Mississippi delta. We had ten dealers at one time, now zero, we use Haney eq. out of Athens Al. and Kalvesta imp. out of Kalvesta Kansas, both are great. We have always loved Gleaners.
Great post. That is dedication to a brand to travel out of state to keep the tradition going. Gleaner combines do a great job.
My favorite combines. I'm old school. Ran FII's G's L's and N6's.
If you are old school, I'm ancient. I drove a 1960 Model A first. 14' cut. 1962 Model C, 1968 Model G, 1974 Model L and finally 1978 L2 Corn/Soybean Special

Same here. My dads first was a Gleaner L or M with a 350v8 gas. He custom ordered his L2 with the 426 diesel, hopper extensions, big tires, headers, in the end it cost more than our new 8550. But it was a beast and really could make time, finest of its time.
One complaint of some of those R Gleamers was the RPMs they were required to push, as you can hear with the R72. I watched an S88 last year and could not believe how quiet it was, really just the noise of threshing. Something to be said for refinement on that level
nice combine harvester
My grandpa bought our Gleaner F2 brand new in 1981. My grandpa still uses it as our main combine on our farm. It's one if the last orange stripe models before they became deutz and switched to green with the F3 I believe. It's done everything from wheat, soybeans, milo, fescue, rice, and corn.
The F2 was built from 1977 to 1982 with the very early F2 having shorter walkers and the very early diesels still ran the 6 cylinder 301 cid vs later the 200 cid 4 cylinder. I think those changes were made in 1978. The F3 came out in late 1982 and was Allis Chalmers branded until 1985 when a Duetz-Allis sticker was placed on them but they still had the orange stripe. Then in 1986 they replaced the orange stripe with the green stripe and the black chassis went to gun metal blue. The last F3 was built in 1987. All great combines which kept the Baldwin design of a closed concave.
Nice video BTP! Dont see many of those in my area. Great finds!
Had a 1981 M2 Hydro, to replace our John Deere 7700. I worked at a AGCO Allis Dealer in the late 90’s. We bought the M2 and went through it, replacing bearings and everything else that was wore out. Had a 315 flex header with height control. It felt like you were running a Cadillac compared to the 7700 gear drive. It would bury a 30lb boost gauge and smoke a little, more when you worked it hard. Miss that machine, would be on my list of things to buy if I started farming again.

Is it me, or do Gleaner's
just remind you of summer picnics, apple pie, and Fourth of July fireworks?
They sure do! They also bring back great summer memories of baling straw, and second cutting hay on many July 4th's followed by ice cold beer and fireworks!
Custom harvesting😊 60s style was great
GLEANER is a wonderful machine. Best rotor, distribution shoe and sieve design in the industry and the price is good/reasonable for the technology and engineering.
I drove an L3 from El Dorado, Oklahoma to Carrington, North Dakota summer of '85. Was part of Jim Couchman's crew out of Pond Creek, Oklahoma. Forever will be able to say I went North with the Wheat-cutters.
I was out that same year with Wood Bros out of Hobart Oklahoma
Hell yea😅
Gleaner combines are so efficient, smaller so weigh less and yes about the best grain sample out there. Awesome combines for sure!!!👍👍👍
Thank you for watching.
I had an L2 it cleaned wheat clean enough to seed. Straight forward to work on also. Now I have a R72 it really moves through the wheat

wish the r72 was the starting point for the gleaner rotor instead of the n series, they were not ready for production. The 72's were good machines.
I had a L2 and had 4wd and all screens for small seed and bean screens...very clean samples you could use in a grain drill without extra cleaning.
I have an R-52 and had a JD 9500 previously. Let's just say I am happy. I had a TR85 before the Deere. Love my Gleaner.
I loved the exhaust sound on most of them!!
👍👍
Up close they screamed and kicked. When that r60 throttled up that brought me back Find an older gleaner without welds on the auger. Simple but
After this introduction I would believe Jason is a Gleaner dealer. But I'm a big gleaner fan as well 👍👍
Another great video BTP! I would love to get to your part of the country and see some of this big equipment in action.
My Great-Grandfather used to say “I ain’t buyin’ a combine that they didn’t think highly enough of it to even paint it.” 😂
On the other hand, my Grandfather owned an F2 and swore it was the best sample he ever had (this from the man who praised Case IH).
Never got to experience one myself unfortunately.
Gleaners are my favorite. My dad and uncle both used them when I was growing up. Love the video!
They are good combined. Thank you for watching.
Cool to see an older model getting it in! We have a Gleaner S78 now!
great combine, we had some '14 S78's.
@@gleanerman2195 is that right! That's the one we got!
@@TerrellSpivey If you got it from Haney eq. it probably was ours. It was a really good machine.
@@gleanerman2195 oh we had got ours brand spanking new in 2014!
My friend's brother in law ran an MH and his uncle ran a GH. This was up in Eastern Washington. Both were hillside combines. The MH seemed a little more average but the GH put out some real clean grain. The uncle said he had a CH in his farm yard he had set aside in case he needed to cut some for seed. Never saw it run but he claimed that CH thrashed so clean he could dump it straight into the seed drills and plant it.
I can watch the old Gleaner conventionals all day long. Sweet L3! The R60 was sweet too.
It was best to film these Deutz Allis Gleaners. I hope to film a C62 conventional some day.
@@bigtractorpower probably would have to go to canada for that one,
I love the new gleaners by far the best out there in my opinion
I run an M2 Gleaner. Harvest corn, soybeans, wheat and oats. Good machines.

Hi Jason, I always enjoy your videos particularly combining. Nice to see Gleaners in operation. Thanks for what you do. - Dean from Minnesota
Thank you Dean. I appreciate you watching and commenting on BTP video. 😁👍
We got our first gleaner in 1980 an f2. Had 55b John Deere it was slow now have s68 great machines
Great Gleaner history. The S68 is a nice combine.
Great video, thanks for showing the Gleaners, very special
Thank you for watching. I hope to find more Gleaners to film in wheat.
En su tiempo fue una excelente maquina que aun perdura en el tiempo con mantenimiento y trabajo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As far as I know, there are no gleaner dealers in the area.
It's always cool to see a silver combine at work👍 Great video👍
Thank you for watching.
I ran Gleaner combines everything from A to an L2.
Outstanding video ,that S78 looked cool.
The R75 sure does sound good powered with a M11.
Nice video! Not a gleaner fan but its nice to watch some wheat get harvested 👍. Question for you BigTractorPower...Deere has a new 50ft drapper now. Is there anyway you could make a video about it?
Up in to the 80s my dad ran corn wheat and beans through a 1975 Gleaner l
They used to be referred to as silver seeders where I grew up.
I'm thinking of starting a farm one day soon and am considering getting ahold of a Gleaner L3. Like you were saying Gleaners do have a very clean crop sample after harvesting.
Thanks for the history of combining
Thank you for watching.
Dad's first Gleaner was a 1960 model C, big step up from the Massy Harris model 50. When we quit farming in 1977 we had a model L, I don't remember the year. We grew hard red winter wheat in south central Kansas.
Excellent subject matter, thank you for posting. Maybe a Gleaner soon.
Cool gleaners! Awsome
I worked at a Deutz - Allis dealer they truly were great machines. M-2, M-3, L-2, L-3. N-5,6 & 7 R40, 50 60 & 70 I left that dealership shortly after R-52, 62 and 72 models came out. It took a long time before I started to like the Red machines that I worked on after the Gleaners. In my opinion it took until the 2166, 2188s came out before they could match Gleaner in operator comfort and machine quality.
Gotta love the silver beasts!
You mean silver seeders?
I like watching your videos because you feature some rare pieces of kit ,great vid once again 👍👍
Gleaner combine video. Instant like.
Thank you for watching.
Uma das antigas mas muito boa
linda maquina 👏👏👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷
Gotta love old iron machines
My father worked for allis chalmers from 1962 thru 1983 I grew up following him and helping him work on ac equipment I always thought ac tractors and gleaners were the only equipment made ever body else was just trying to keep up lol
gleaners were always ahead of there time, even today.
It's gotta be Gleaner!
I run an S78 and R72 with Macdon heads on my farm, cutting wheat, soybeans, and milo
Very nice. Great combines. The R72 has a great sound.
Still run corn, wheat, and beans with a 1980 K2 diesel. Does a great job!
Very cool.
I love the Gleaner brand, they are great machines.
👍👍
L3 nation baby
Gleaner was good about using standard part that you could pick up at any parts house now 2 weeks on ordering parts times sure have changed keep up the videos Jason
Great product
The best of the best
You know, the more things change the more they are the same. The Baldwin brothers started with their Gleaner self propelled combine in the 1920s and the most effective gas powered tractors of the day were the Holt Caterpillar track tractors. 100 years later we're back to there!
That R60 has been repowered with a Cummins I think it would have had a V-8 Deutz engine.
Great video as always. Just wondering if you have a similar video for classic and modern Massey Ferguson combines. Ty
I run a K and a K2. Good machines in fescue!
I started riding in an F diesel, then dad got an L2 which is by far the best sounding machine ever built. Lol. Then he got a 94 R72 with the big Deutz now he's got a 98 R72 with an M11 Cummins. Impressive machines. Watching one eat soybeans is petty impressive.
Great video Jason
😁👍
We run two R72 and have really liked the simplicity of them and how they clean the grain
Very cool. The R72 is a monster combine.
Grew up with an F and a G. My brother ran an M, L2, and now the N7. I bought the M and its still running great. I'm not doing the ammount of acres like my neighbors, and not very quick, but samples come out just as good, or slightly better than the new machines the big guys are using.
Great machines that do an excellent job
👍👍
Nice 😊
All conventional gleaners were silver seeders if u didn’t know where to look, they would give clean samples if u slow down, we always had trouble with custom harvesters doing a good job, finially end up with a very good one, a lot of rye in that field
When I was a young kid my Grandpa had an old 1950's Gleaner "F" with no cab. It had what I believe was an inline gas 6-cylinder Chevy engine. That thing was so nasty to ride! We only used it to harvest wheat & soybeans.
I spent the summer of 1985 on an N7 and have put in a few hours on the R60 just like this one. I thought they were comprable to each other, but have not run an R60
enough to make a good comparison. Someone else might have a better answer.
I run a 1973 "K" and 1983 "F2". Run corn, soybeans and spelt...
Wow! I have an F and a K2.
