Disrupter Straw Chopper For Combines
Duane L. Stinemetz, Marysville, Ohio: "The Disrupter kit that I installed on my Case-IH 1660 Axial-Flow combine is my best buy (Estes Mfg. Co., Box 379, 102 S. Jefferson, Flanagan, Ill. 61740 ph 800 235-4461 or 815 796-4461). It's a poor man's straw chopper that keeps material flowing through Axial Flow combines equipped with either a standard or specialty rotor so they don't leave æropes' of green stems in the field. You can't even tell where a combine has been in the field because residue is spread so evenly behind it. It eliminates the need for a straw chopper and stops rotor losses. It's also easy to install. It does everything the company says it will do.
  "The kit consists primarily of a set of nine 3/4-in. thick hardfaced steel lugs that bolt to the grate section of the rotor. It also includes a set of cylinder bars with every other tooth removed and a set of scalloped rotor bars, both of which help feed straw through the combine."
