Considering how many parts are on that machine, it's probably not uncommon for parts to fall off. It really is mind boggling how big those fields are and how important crops like what and canola are to the industrial food system. Amazing you could find that dropped guard- like a needle in a hay stack.
How do you adjust the knife into the correct spot to remove a guard or change a sickle? We just move the drive belt back or forward but with this new header being hydraulic drive you cant do that?
Finally. Someone running a macdon. One day theses other tube farmers will figure it out
This MacDon just chews
How expensive is that header
@@rickpederson1219 I bet it's $150-200k... 10 years ago a brand new FD75 35' draper head was $75k. That's how much things have gotten out of hand.
This video was a perfect pick-me-up. Thanks for making it!
How many contour max wheels are there. My headers show up in a few days

Good luck combining your 2023 crops
Great video Dustin

You can move the flywheel back and forth to move the knife still
Whats the reason for running the header tilt so far out?
That’s where the header was running the flattest based on where the fore/aft tilt was set
@@dustinbezugly I just got a 240 last week. I've only cut canola with it. Seems like a big improvement.
@myronfowler4691 nice ya we haven’t done any canola yet just wheat
Yeah!! More vids!
With the crop shorter because of drought, do you guys need to be in float??
