So we are windrowing the lentils with the X9 and now I am having canvass plugging issues 🤦🏻♂️😆
Also we are plugging the backend while windrowing – but the Ole S series is just rocking out over there! 😆

Stop growing. Lentils
Just curious why not go to 790s with 45ft hdfs? Then you have best of both worlds
Ashtyn:

“Tough day sweetie?”
Get a MacDon header for your S series it is worth the money
The X looks like it needs to become the EX
I am thinking Mike needs to stay Green… but get a totally different CLAAS of Combine lol.
Team Red might be advantageous in these situations..
Beginning to feel the X9's are a bit overpriced and overrated🤔
The 'S' series is unbeatable.
X9 = junk
If you use a propane torch on those plugs and bunches under the draper to get them out ……problem solved, just saying. Call your insurance and head out of the country, preferably a country without extradition. A nice warm country with a beach 🏝️
Something tells me Mike got a "DUD"…or they forgot to put something in the tail end of it
I reckon if you were cattle farmers/dairy farmers that lentil straw/stubble windrow would bale good for roughage in a feed mixer
Sometimes, it's fascinating how older, less expensive equipment outperforms new technology. It goes to show that innovation doesn't always guarantee effectiveness. Watching these agriculture machines in action is a testament to the timeless wisdom that simplicity and efficiency can often triumph over the complexity of modern advancements. It's a reminder that the best solutions don't always come with a hefty price tag. Truly inspiring to witness!
Sorry that you are having so much trouble combing
Better than doing it with a 14ft header back in the day. Still faster
Can you remove them side panels plastic ones.
If that comes out so east on back end almost looks like the problem is further ahead causing a chain reaction
You all go to bloody fast, that's why you plug.. just go at a nails pace threw the green stuff. Not 1.5 to 2mph
It looks like x9 are shit for lentils
You should get a hay tedder to spread out your windrows.
Hay Mike. I think I know why you keep plugging up on that X9, we had the same issue
The knives in the back are dull that chop up the straw, replace them and your problem will be fixed.
Sorry but as mike didn’t notice that he started to plug because he was making more content, was really on him this time
Seems like swathing would work great if you could get a 7-10 day window without rain. We pick up our swaths after only 4 days drying time.
Try a case , new holland , or lexion. You say your not one sided but haven’t tried one of them even though your struggling with twist you have.🤷♂️
So x9 do not cope green plant, regrowing crops. Important knowledge ! Future farming is not spraying down crop to ripe .
Interesting to see when harvest get tough, but Mike and his men sort it out , see he consider which way lentils lean towards the header ir away from header.
The green plants also stuck behind, plugging.
Dont mind spreading straw, Mike just get it harvested!
Use a smaller head! 😂
Hey mike, take that top rail out of the x9 end. Its pointed almost down. Thats whats causing the plugging in swath mode
Time to trade the X9's in for some S series.
Deere should give you a 790 with a 45 foot hinged so you can harvest. A 1.3 million dollar machine that plugs up constantly. That’s not acceptable
I’d get rid of those combines the x9s. You don’t have the heavy yields for needing a combine like that. It’s also too expensive and it doesn’t work in tuff straw. I’d tell deere I want my money back. That machine is not working
I would be on JD like you wouldn’t believe. 🤢🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮
Mike. Truly God bless you and your family! I always pray for you and yours. I would say your JD green X9's arent putting money in your pocket with lentils
YouTube or not I don't know how you don't start swearing and flipping your 💩😂
Adding more winged chopper blades will help. Helps create more wind affect pulling it through the chopper.
I would try to take of that side curtain on discharge chute on each side, so it's easier for straw to fall of. maybe its worth trying
I think I would quit growing lentils! No amount of money is worth that headache
Try cutting with only part of the header not using full width see if that helps.
Seems like the Deere is constipated
Put the X9 in total loss measurement and lift the chopper instead of using windrow mode
Install new s780 chopper knife in the x9
Hey Mike as an armchair farmer why don't you switch the headers? Or does the 50ft doesn't fit in the S series?
Oh that plug is nasty I know..
