    probably the most important thing to check every year is to check and make sure your concaves are level,your maintenance section in your Manuel will show you how to do it on your combine,vary important.

    I heard from a deere mechanic that when you are about to start harvesting in the morning that you want to slow your rotor down from the cab adjustment then all the way up then back down to your setting, he claimed doing this smears the grease around for better lubrication. Have a safe harvest!

    Grant you need to buy an older diesel compressor from an auction site and use it to blow off the equipment Before you wash. If you don’t you don’t get the dust before you wash the dust you can’t see remains. The Milwaukee blower is not enough psi

    Grant, hopefully the mice did not make it near the cab or too much of the wiring. You probably won’t find out until you have bean there and done that. Why don’t you invest in some bait stations and get them before they get you. I used to have mouse problems under my porch but once I started to use them I have never seen any evidence of them other that the odd dead one. Good luck with this years harvest, stay safe.

    Good way to keep the mice out. Spray the combine with diesel over the winter then you wash it off before you use it at harvest

    Grant Try peppermint oil to keep the mice away, I bought a big bottle on amazon and a cheap spray bottle and peppermint oil and some water and spray around the shop. and for my combine and tractors I bought the little metal altoid tins on amazon drilled 6 1/8" holes and packed them with cottontails and put peppermint oil in and threw them around the cab I have not noticed any mice in my machines and it smells good when you get into the cab.

    Hello New Farmer. Here a Few Trick for you. Add a canister to your Pressure washer, Use Dawn Soap.( if it Cleans Oil away from 🦆 Ducky there it will work for You. When you are Done fill Canister with Wax like at the CarWash. The Cut tire Grind and ruff up inside cut then USE a Clear Epoxy mix to the Cut. Tape it off too. Works great if you Clean and Ruff up Rubber. Friday in Ohio they Are Harvesting the Soybean pods. Also fellow Millennial Farmer. He Need to hit 1 million to get Anne a ride in Combine
