I have had both on a 718, and the 824 on a 790. If you look at the 824, you will see another row of gathering chains below the top ones which hold the stalk. On the 722 and 822, there is only one chain per side. These heads will work fine if the crop is clean and standing well. Once the cutting discs become worn a bit, they are not as aggressive and will not cut grass or lodged corn as well. The space below the chains in the stalk way will fill with grass and cobs and plug the header so the plants will no longer enter it, but rather be cut off and fall down before the chains grab them. With the extra row of chains, the stalk way is always kept clean, even in the messiest most lodged corn....and you will experience that sooner or later. You can plug an 822 or a 722 in less than 100 feet of lodged and weedy corn, and I can assure you, that you will have a very hard time plugging a properly adjusted 824 in any crop. There is a reason why a used 824 is twice the money as a used 822.....and worth every cent. Ben

I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
