The Gleaner Manufacturing Company is an American manufacturer of combine harvesters. Gleaner has been a popular brand of combine harvester particularly in the Midwestern United States for many decades, first as an independent firm, and later as a division of Allis-Chalmers. The Gleaner brand continues today under the ownership of AGCO.
Gleaner combines date from 1923, when the Baldwin brothers of Nickerson, Kansas, created a high-quality and reliable self-propelled combine harvester. They decided to use the "Gleaner" name for their radically redesigned grain harvesting machine based on inspiration from "The Gleaners", an 1857 painting by Jean-François Millet. Gleaning is the act of collecting leftover crops from farm fields after they have been commercially harvested, or on fields where it is not economically profitable to harvest. In the broadest sense, it is the act of frugally recovering resources from low-yield contexts. Thus, with the Gleaner name, the company evoked a positive connotation in potential customers' minds, of a brand of harvester that would leave none of the grain behind. A combine harvester combines the reaping (plus or minus binding), threshing, and winnowing functions into one machine, hence the "combine" part of its name. To that list, the Baldwin brothers' Gleaner added self-propulsion. Earlier combines, the so-called pull-type or tractor-drawn combines, were towed by tractors.
The original Gleaner design was mounted on a Fordson Model F. It had a retail price of USD $950 FOB at the factory in Nickerson. This design was manufactured between 1923 and 1928.
The Gleaner was one of the pioneers in self-propelled combines. They were often considered the "Cadillac" of the industry because of this feature and because of their solid engineering. Buescher (1991) credited the design principally to one of the brothers, Curt Baldwin, and explained that it focused on the needs of custom cutters like the Baldwin brothers themselves: contractors who move north with the harvest season, providing harvesting services to farmers. It resulted in machines that were reliable and useful, which benefited not only custom cutters but anyone who bought a Gleaner. The short wheelbase and axle track allowed the combine to fit on a truck. The grain header did not need to be detached for transit, because it fit over the cab of the truck Buescher said, "Since custom cutters didn't know where their next parts supply source would be, Baldwin designed his combine so that it wouldn't need parts." (Buescher's tongue-in-cheek point is that the machines were designed and built well so that need for repairs would be minimal.) The frame was "like a bridge" in its strength. The bearings were chosen with service in mind: large and good quality (to obviate failure) and of common sizes (so that the operator could carry a small stock of spares in his truck, and have the size needed when a replacement became necessary). The Gleaner's exterior sheet metal was galvanized (zinc plated), providing superior weather resistance. As Buescher said, "Baldwin reasoned that most of his combines would sit outdoors. Texas and Oklahoma dust storms have a way of peeling paint off of machinery." As a result of the silver color of the zinc plating, the Gleaner brand ended up having a distinctive color (just as Allis had Persian Orange, IH had red, and John Deere had green), despite the sheet metal not even having any paint.

She 's a good chef and great sister , she care for everyone in her family , Hao's friends are lucky to try her food the first time :)
Love that sound, music to my ears 😁
Great video and image quality. This combine really is a beast
Thanks 👍
Skills
We had a N5 in the day. Good machine.
I never caught a N5-it would be nice to catch one! I have caught a N6 before th-cam.com/video/RPFLoGH_0jg/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!
Good combine I have a 94 R72 any modification done what size platform
Man, that’s a coal ROLLIN machine
My dad and uncle would've pulled me out of the cab and given me a beat down if they would've seen me operating the combine the way this guy does. Never unload at full throttle, never engage the separator and header clutches and then slam the engine into full throttle and don't back up any more than absolutely necessary!
Shouldn’t you slam full throttle then you engage separator and you engage header
@@M60A3 no, never. That’s extremely hard on all of the combine’s mechanical components. I was taught move the throttle to idle, engage the separator clutch, engage the header clutch and gradually bump the throttle up until you’re running at full speed. It’s the gentlest way to save wear and tear on all the belts and bearings.
My grandfather would have done the same..never operate the combine again.
Put some duals on and go right through with no problem.
Retired?. 600 acres is still a lot of work with older equipment .depending where you live. Mind you even here an r72 would be a 1000 acre machibe
Why would you not cut to the back of the field, then do rows until you’re almost full, then start cutting back to the truck? This person clearly doesn’t know how to work a combine efficiently. That’s how I was taught.
Sounds like cummins not like deutz
not a v8 deutz thats for sure, must be a re power, sounded like an 855 didnt it.
listening right through it probably is the v8 just straight through.
Hello I enjoyed watching your video alot. How many feet was that straight cut header that was on that Gleaner Combine if I may ask you
Looks like a 30 foot 8000 series header
He need straddle duels
😀😀😀😁😁😁👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
