No one Steers Combine

[hebert4230]

I'd put some weight on the seat, hop out and have a nap.....now only if I could adapt this to my holland to plow snow.....hmmm.....

bye bye agriculture and contracting in a few years everything is automatic:S

[NIRScar]

First off, 60 bushel beans that's great. I cut some last year that run up into the 70-75 bu range, and believe it or not I hit some spots that pegged that monitor out to 95bu. Also I've never seen or cut that much of an angle in a field before, it's hell on the cutterbar, blades, and woble box but to each his own.

[jbschild]

Yeah, we had a storm with high winds hit that field and the beans were leaning so much that to combine at any other angle would have worked going one way, but would have just pushed them down going the other.

It is about the same for airline pilots these days. They do the takeoff and landing and the plane does the rest.

[korinavargas]

do y have xxxx in cambine

[christtabkid]

lol sorry guess im just old fashioned but i like the be in control over whats going on lol ans none of our fields are really big enough for that :]

[Willz136]

this is where I wold love to have a go but i still love to feel in control in a combine, and I like to actually use my brain and eyes it keeps you focused on the job but if you are harvesting what 2500-8000 acres then you are gonna want one of them but for only 200 acres I think I will stick with the manual option =] and if you wre wondering what kit I use it is a nice small Claas Dominator 118 sl maxi with a 20 foot cut =DDDD

Autotrac is awesome. I planted 1600 acres of milo with a 8 row JD planter using greenstar. Perfect rows.

[djspazzin]

Man, farming gets easier and easier every year..

[Mindenfan1]

that is true but theres always gonna be going out at 5 in the morning and irrigate and grease pivot gearboxes lol I LOVE IT!

[shog6y]

is the wierdest feeling when you let go of the wheel for the first time

[altoids18ROX]

i do that all the time to udjust the radio and shit the combine dont care and i dont have one of those autotrack things

[flaminturdworm]

its called an outback guidance system and it saves time and is way more efficient economically

[jbschild]

Uh, negative. This is a John Deere Universal AutoTrac kit. It beats the heck out of that Outback stuff...

[favoritemenu]

at least with outback you dont have to watch that wheel jerking back and foreth all day long.. The wheel doesnt move at all

[jbschild]

I could have chosen to install the integrated system in the combine (wheel doesn't move...if that bothers you). But, #1...I'm watching the head rather than the wheel all day, and #2...I wanted the ability to move the ATU to different machines.

[JonDeere01]

@jbschild the thing is after like 10 mins you dont notice it we have one on the sprayer then we have one for are 4 combines

[jjjhedder]

does it wipe your ass to?

[JohnDeereBoy100]

cant stand that kinda stuph it difys the point in employing some one to sit in it evan if i ever end up driving somthing with that i wont use it because id just get to dam bord

[macnei]

Trust me you'd use it, i spent one summer windrowing in a 9352 w/o ezsteer and the next with it and its 500 times better with it you can pay more attention your implement and seeing if its working ok. You also cut back majorly on fuel, seed if you are seeding, chemical if you are spraying and so on

[lex580]

I agree with macnei the average saveings are 10-15% and output go's up by about the same

[cinmcrk5]

with eney cobine you can just sit there i do it all the time on my grapas tracter

[sabrefirefighter]

now thats just lazy!

[CombineWizard]

I just wish you really had a little more focus on the steering wheel with detail of how no hand is anywhere near it. I know about auto steering, but some still tell me this video may be fake because you can't see hoow the operator's hand is not touching the bottom of the wheel.

[johndeere2510]

:) Every day I think we are getting closer and closer to seeing "Terminator 3" become a reality LOL.

[CombineWizard]

Deere's "Frankenbine" the driverless combine will be here in 7-9 years.

Be ready!

[trfarms]

how big of a machine is that and how fast will she handle that 30 ' head

[jbschild]

9660 John Deere and can go 4-5 MPH

[cowboybob39]

9760 with a 36ft header can 5-7 mph
