@MYPrecisionAg Is there a harness that hooks to a Versatile tractor yet?

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@valleyfield2008 Ok good to know. We got 5370ac on our machine this year and only 2hrs total downtime so quite happy with reliability.

@Archy1958 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel 10% and avg 40-45bu. Turns out 2inches of rain doesn’t make a great crop lol

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

Finally gave up my seat to take some action shots. Awesome machine.

@xtreme9530 @MacDon @Case_IH @pkonstapel @BKonstapel @gdkonstapel Replaced the 8700’s and old case with this and two 9260’s with 50ft heads

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@stinkynutss So far. Big test will be when we get it into canola.

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@allansoutar Depends on your situation. We went from 4 to 3 so it’s worth it to have af11. Doing about 40% more than the 9260’s. all with 50ft

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@allansoutar 100%. runs circles around 9260’s.

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@carter_majeau @AllamFarmer Ya fair enough, 1800-2000 seems to be the average for it but. We had 3 8700 w/45ft and a 9240 w/45ft last year and I think are doing about the same this year with 50ft on one af11 and 2 9260’s. drought this year so it’s hard to compare. 34ac/hr just sounds awesome lol

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

Gotta love seeding season

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

Genius or stupid?

[RcFarmArm @RcFarmArm]

Do you need an extra hand at harvest? Nope! I got this #robotics #remotecontrol @agritradetoday

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@Thacker1Dallas We put kondex in on claas machines. They are wearing less then the OEM ones we had. they do a very good job. Never had the stationeries 100% engaged all year and still chopped amazing.

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@AllamFarmer @mattgreensheave 2022’s. first time a mechanic showed up when we go the machines he kinda cringed when he found out the build dates

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

Just another claas combine doing claas combine things…

[Ray Konstapel @Rayzerray91]

@mattgreensheave When they are running they are awesome machines, pound the acres, minimal losses and always happy with the sample. But more downtime then our previous 9240’s, I can fix feeder belts but anything else it needs a tech to come out which is adding up.
