Greetings from NE Montana. I enjoy your videos and I like your choice of equipment! I just did the paperwork this week for a 2022 S97 to be built for next year. Hopefully it works as well as your machines. It will be replacing a 2011 S77. Thanks for the videos and keep up the good work. God Bless and have a safe finish to your season!
Thanks, appreciate it. That's what we had before these S98's. We love our Agco, especially the Gleaners. God bless you as well, and praying for some moisture across the northern plains and prairies.
Looks like you're spreading you chaff to the right only, am I right? If so, is that something you changed on the combine yourself? We just got an S68 (coming from Deere) and the chaff blows straight into the straw spreader curtain on the left side, making a windrow of pods in soybeans. I'm trying to come up with a solution without buying a hydraulic spreader
Our chaff spreads to both sides. We had a bit of an issue in soybeans but we were able to eliminate it by lowering the fins, which are at the end of sieves, to direct the chaff more into the chaff spreaders. Our rotor has its own spreader and it's speed can be changed from the cab. Hope that was helpful.
@@TwinElmFarms Ours doesn't have the hydraulic chaff spreader, just the tailboard and fins. I was just wondering if any gleaner guys had a solution other than the hydraulic spinner spreaders. Thanks though! I'll be watching your videos now, not many UA-camrs are running Gleaner combines!
@@cafox4275 I'm sorry I read your comment wrong(Not sure how). I'm a little puzzled why your S68 came without chaff spreaders! I thought that was standard. I'm guessing your overloading one side of the cleaning area?
Auger for one, we would have to add a 5ft extension. Capacity with heavy wheat and oats, slower is good to a point. In heavy yields 40 ft half mile there and back wouldn't be efficient for grain cart. And for that, 40ft on our operation is going to be a test. 50ft sure is impressive though, maybe one day.
@@TwinElmFarms on our farm before we rented it out after dad and uncle decided to rent our land out when they retired. We ran 2 s98 with the 50 foot honey bee, and one N7 with a 42 foot honey bee. We farmed at Brookdale.
Nice, too be honest we never really looked bigger then 40. Maybe our area is behind but I believe most farms around here have 35ft, the odd 40's and the one colony is running 45.
@@grimreeper70 We could barely get in the truck with a 30ft. head on those old N7's back in the day, 42, not even close , even with the optional long auger.
@@gleanerman2195 ww got everything from honeybee. The honeybee Brothers ran gleaners when the first started, we got the auger extension kit from them. They don't have the room the s98 have but it can be done.
Nice looking headers

Awesome drone footage
Great video Kendal
The Gleaner does a great job at spreading the residue. I’m surprised seeing it all comes out of the left side of the combine.
Good luck finishing combining your canola Kendal
we run gleaners with 40 air flex we put on stewart steel auger extension to get to middle of grain cart
Ya that might be something we will look at doing this winter.
@@TwinElmFarms You won't regret the extension.
Hello Sir we run 4 S680 JD combines I was always wondering are Gleaner combines still made?
You bet, we bought these new last year. If we wanted new ones for next year we would need to order now or we wouldn't get them in time.
Nice
The reason we got rid of our Gleaners was straw spreading wasn't good enough and the auger. Still like the Gleaners.
Last year spreading straw was no issue.. not much straw. This year looks like we will have lots of straw and hoping it spreads the full 40 feet.
What don’t you like about the auger
@@Sodbuster346 We farm in very hilly land and the auger is to close to the grain cart with 45 ft macdon headers.🙂

You will have to put the a spreader on to do the best job of spreading.
@@TwinElmFarms how do they do in heavy straw. Like lots of material I mean?
Great video could you give us a rundown on Massey tractor 🚜👍
Thanks, we actually started soybeans today. I'll try and put a video together showing what I know.
