It’s pretty awesome, although I can’t take much credit, the previous two generations have done a lot not to mention living within this beautiful land and nature!
I love my 2188 too. Honestly i don't know what I'd upgrade too next. All the electronics in the new ones doesnt excite me. The 2188 is still easy to diagnose and fix. Hope your canola runs good 👍
I agree, in order to get 1 combine that does the same/more than both our combines would be a pretty big step up and cost a lot more money for the combine, header, repairs, fuel & they’re just not as simple. For us we just don’t need all those bells and whistles that can mess up. 🤷♂️
Hey gotta ask you what your settings are on your gps for ez steer on the 2188? I just picked up a 2188 this year and i cannot make that thing drive straight with my ez steer and the 500 monitor in it. My old 1660 used to be within 1” but the 2188 just decides to go off and do zig zags down the field.
Is that with WAAS or RTK? In our tractor and sprayer with WAAS we’re within 1” and yet with our combine I find we’re closer to stayin within 3” and sometimes up to 6. We have our T2 box mounted sideways underneath the side console just by our feet. It’s close enough for us however I wonder if moving the T2 a bit further back and having it sitting flat might help? Or we could spend the money and get the subscription for RTK however it kind of sucks considering how much the units are to start with. I can’t think of the actual settings off the top of my head but hopefully this helps.
Ok. Yes. We used to have them. But, bought them. I thought yours were unusual. Home made. Well done

Great to hear your crop so far was a good one, always nice to get a high yeild, definitely always a pleasant surprise
Such an awesome video! I enjoyed every moment of it.
Glad you enjoyed! Thank you

What do you call your crop lifters on your cutter bar please? Steve, in New Zealand
Hello Steve, we just call them "lifters" if that's what you're wondering. They're all homemade aswell incase you were wondering. Cheers.
Good for you!
Hello, nice to meet you
