Performance Boosting Combine Parts (Harvest Services)

Performance Boosting Combine Parts (Harvest Services) COMBINES Accessories 21-2-29 Two new combine replacement parts from Harvest Services debuted at North American farm shows this past winter. Harvest Services says its new "Plastic Louvered Bottom Sieve" reduces the amount of clean grain in the return, reduces the amount of cracked grain and produces a cleaner sample. It's the only re-placement bottom sieve built out of poly on the market. It's 40 percent lighter than conventional steel bottom sieves. It has a plastic load bearing surface that's four times larger than conventional sieves, and flexible louvers for increased durability. Smooth louver surfaces reduce build up from sappy weeds and snow "icing." A cupped tail scoop at the bottom of the louver forces air more vertically than conventional sieves to keep unthreshed heads out of the tank. Available for all makes and model combines. Priced competitively with conventional replacement sieves. Also new for 1997 is Harvest Services Specialty Round Rod Concave for Case-IH 1460 through 2188 combines. The con-cave, which features 3/4-in. dia. steel rods spaced 3/4 in. apart, was designed specifically for wet corn and adverse threshing conditions in other crops. It treats corn more gently than conventional grate-type concaves by not mashing the kernel and breaking the cob. Starts at $300 (U.S.) for 1460's.
