Hey guys,
I was at a local dealer today and we got talking about the 815 combine they took in on trade last fall..
It was too wet where it sits to have a look at it tonight (plus was raining) so I'm gonna go sneak a look at it the next chance I get. It's my understanding (without looking and just asking questions) that it runs, is a diesel/hydro, and could go to the fields as it is, but needs some work..
I know the normal things to look at would be the rasp bars, concave, bearings, belts/chains, Anti-Freeze and Oil.. I know final drives were kinda weak on the -15 series..
Is there anything else I should be alert to looking at? I've been around/worked on combines in the past, and pretty mechanical.. Just hate to MISS something serious..
If it matters, they're asking what it should scrap for, with a 4 row narrow corn head.. They took it on trade, had no interest in it so far, and was talking about scrapping it..
