Combine Harvester
Instruction Book
The purpose of this book is to enable the Operator to familiarize himself with the combine. It is of utmost
importance that the Operator becomes familiar with the structures, adjustments and maintenance of his combine.
Compliance with the advice and instructions given in this manual guarantees the best results at the lowest costs.
Have this manual always in the cab, in the special pocket reserved for it, for convenient reference.
This manual provides descriptions of as well as operating and maintenance instructions for several models in
the series. Every combine does not have all the described features. The actual structure as well as the number
of accessories and optional equipment depend on what was agreed in the delivery contract. This is to be kept in
mind when reading the manual.
Item “Technical Specifications” has a description of the features of the combine. It does, however, not include
retro-fitted accessories.
The Manufacturer reserves the right to modify the structure, adjustments or accessories of the combine as well
as the service and maintenance instructions without further notification.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Read carefully these instructions on safety and use before starting to operate the combine. Time spent in
becoming familiar with the instructions now will save you money or may even spare you from injury.
Before accepting the delivery of the combine, make sure it conforms to the delivery contract.
Do not fit the combine with any accessories not approved of by the Manufacturer. The Manufacturer of the
Combine is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by such accessories either to people or property.
Make sure you know the measurements and weights of the combine and the transporter. Comply with any
regulations governing the transportation.
Use increased tyre pressures (2…2.5 Bar) to improve stability.
Fix the combine securely in the transporter. For road transport lower the cutting table fully or disengage it.
2. DRIVING IN TRAFFIC
When driving on public roads, comply with the relevant statutory traffic regulations.
Remember the combine has rear-wheel steering.
The brake pedals must be latched together. Test
brake functions before driving on the road. Brake
smoothly as the rear wheels of the combine easily rise
from the ground when applying the brakes violently.
The safety switch on the instrument panel must
be depressed. The threshing equipment must be
disengaged, the straw dividers removed and the
unloading pipe locked for road transport.
3. THRESHING
3
Before starting, particularly reversing, make sure that
everybody nearby is aware of your intentions.
Test the brakes as soon as you start, and stop
immediately if the brakes or steering operate
defectively.
Never adjust the seat or steering wheel while driving.
Never leave the cab while the combine is moving.
Never leave the engine running unattended.
Do not open the guards with the engine running.
Do not mount, or allow others to mount, on top of the
grain tank or the straw walkers with the engine running
Beware of the cutting mechanism and the rotating
chopper knife.
Keep in mind that with the chopper rotating, there is a
20 m no-access danger zone behind it. /Fig. A2)
Drive carefully on hillsides; the combine may overturn,
particularly with the grain tank full.
The combine cab is no safety cab.
THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE DOOR MAY BE USED AS A2
AN EMERGENCY EXIT. PULL UP THE HANDLE,
AND OPEN THE WINDOW. FIG. EXIT”.
Note the recommended safety distances when
threshing under power lines.
Stop the engine before cleaning or servicing the
combine.
Stop the combine and the engine immediately if there
EXIT
is an alarm or any abnormal sounds or smells. Find
out the reason for them, and remove the problem
before carrying on with threshing.
Support or lock the cutting table and the reel
before going beneath them.
Never clean the combine without the proper
equipment.
When leaving the combine, lower the cutting table,
lock the parking brake, stop the engine and remove
the ignition key.
In Case of an Accident

the power line.
If the combine cannot be disentangled, and you
have to leave the combine, jump down with your
feet together in order not to touch the combine and
the ground simultaneously. Do not make yourself a
conductor through which electricity can pass; the real
danger lies in touching the combine and the ground
simultaneously.
et away from the combine jumping either with your feet
together or with only one foot on the ground at a time.
Otherwise the electric field on the ground may create
a fatal electric current between your legs. You will be
safe at a distance of 20 metres from the combine.
Beware of broken power lines lying on the ground.
A combine touching a power line may catch fire. Leave
the combine immediately if smoke starts coming from
the tyres.
Make sure the combine is guarded at a safe distance.
Do not try to get on the combine even if the power in A4
the power lines may seem to have gone off.
Remember that open-wire lines never have a “blown
fuse”, but they are always dangerous unless made
dead by an electrician. Even if the power went off, it
may come back on in a while due to technical reasons.
This may be repeated several times.
Contact the Electric Company and inform them about
the exact site of the accident. By doing this, any risk
can be eliminated and the fault repaired.
Ask the Electric Company for advice and follow it.
Inform them about any contact with power lines even if
there was no actual damage.

high pressure in the system. Make sure there is no pressure in the system or in the pressure reservoir before
disconnecting the connectors.
Never use over-sized fuses; they involve risk of accident.
Never start the combine with anything but the ignition key.
When refitting a wheel, tighten the fixing screws to the correct torque.
Attach accessories such as the trailer using the appropriate equipment.
Tow the combine only from designated points.
This symbol in the manual refers to a special risk involved in taking a certain measure, due to which
extra caution shall be practiced.
Combine harvester is a complex device, and dangerous if misused. User manual must always be preserved with
the machine at the place reserved for it and if needed, new drivers should be instructed to operate the machine
Different countries have different safety at work and traffic regulations. Get to know the existing regulations of
your area.
6. FIRE SAFETY
Two factors are needed to start a fire: flammable material and ignition; oxygen is always available.
Threshing generates a lot of light and highly flammable dust. Therefore it is important to clean the combine on a
regular basis and the engine compartment daily.
Oil and fuel leaks increase the risk of fire. Repair any defects immediately.
High temperature near the exhaust pipe makes the area fire-prone. A fire may also be caused by a short circuit in
the electric system, slipping of an overloaded belt, a damaged bearing or overheating of the brakes.
Make sure there is at least one 6-kilo class AB fire extinguisher located in its marked place on the combine at all
times.
In particularly dry and dusty circumstances another similar extinguisher is to be placed near the engine
compartment.

MARKING OF THE DANGER POINTS
The structures of the combine have been designed to be as safe to use and service as possible. This manual
provides instructions on how to eliminate any risks there may be in the use of the combine. The danger points
have been marked on the combine using danger symbols. The following diagram shows the location of the
markings. Check regularly that the markings are clearly visible.
On the following page you will find the key to these symbols. The danger symbols are based on the international
ISO 11 684 standard.

OPENING OF THE GUARDS
To ensure safety, the movable guards in the combine
have been equipped with a locking device. They
cannot be opened without the appropriate tool supplied
with every combine, hanging on a hook on the back
wall of the cab. (The guards can also be opened with
a 13 mm socket wrench or a screwdriver.) The guards
get locked automatically when closed. Some guards
also have additional clamps.
Unlock the guard at the left end of the cutting table, fig.
B1b by turning the locking device counter-clock wise.
To open the guard, pull the handle outwards and lift
the guard slightly upwards at the same time. The guard
gets locked automatically when closed.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE COMBINE
Standard Threshing Mechanism
The cutting and feeding equipment take the crops in for threshing.
The straw dividers limit the crop to be cut and bring it within reach of the reel.
The reel, together with the crop lifters, lift up the laid-down crop up and take it from the cutting knife onto the table
auger.
The table auger gathers the cut crop and feeds it onto the crop elevator, which takes the crop forward to be
threshed. Stones and other heavy objects are pushed to the stone trap thus preventing damage to the threshing
mechanism.
The threshing cylinder beats the grain off on the concave. Most of the threshed grain and chaff go through the
concave into the grain pan.
The rear beater and the concave extension take the threshed straw onto the straw walkers.
The straw walkers separate the grains from the straw and eject the straw out to the field from the rear of the
combine. The grains run along the bottom grooves to the grain pan.
The grain pan takes the threshed material to the shaker shoe. The chaff and any light remains are sorted topmost
in the grain pan with the grain at the bottom.
The air stream from the fan lifts the light chaff in the air and transports it over the shaker shoe and out of the
machine. Heavier grains and any partly threshed material fall through the chaff sieve. Any larger remains move
out along the sieve. Clean grain falls onto the grain auger through the grain sieve and is transported from there by
the grain elevator and filling auger to the grain tank.
The grains and occasional straw bits, which lie on the shaker shoe extension, fall to the returns course to be
re-threshed.
After the straw walker, the straw is either discharged uncut onto the field or taken to the chopper, which cuts and
spreads it out.

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTIONS OF THE COMBINE,
The TS Threshing Mechanism
The cutting and feeding equipment take the crops in for threshing.
The straw dividers limit the crop to be cut and bring it within reach of the reel.
The reel, together with the crop lifters, lift up the laid-down crop up and take it from the cutting knife onto the table
auger.
The table auger gathers the cut crop and feeds it onto the crop elevator, which takes the crop forward to be
threshed. Stones and other heavy objects are pushed to the stone trap thus preventing damage to the threshing
mechanism.
The cut crop first comes onto the pre-cylinder, which gently separates the most easily threshable grains and
ejects them through the pre-concave to the front of the grain pan. The pre-cylinder also evens out the feed onto
the main cylinder.
The rest of the grains are threshed off by the main cylinder and concave. Most of the threshed grain and chaff go
through the concave into the grain pan.
The rear beater and the concave extension take the threshed straw onto the straw walkers.
The straw walkers separate the grains from the straw and eject the straw out to the field from the rear of the
combine. The CSP ruffling drum placed above the straw walkers intensifies the separation of loose grains from
the straw by opening a fluffier area into the straw flow. The grains run along the bottom grooves to the grain pan.
The grain pan takes the threshed material to the shaker shoe. The chaff and any light remains are sorted topmost
in the grain pan with the grain at the bottom.
The air stream from the fan lifts the light chaff in the air and transports it over the shaker shoe and out of the
machine. Heavier grains and any partly threshed material fall through the chaff sieve. Any larger remains move
out along the sieve. Clean grain falls onto the grain auger through the grain sieve and is transported from there by
the grain elevator and filling auger to the grain tank.
The grains and occasional straw bits, which lie on the shaker shoe extension, fall to the returns course to be

TRANSMISSION
Hydrostatic Transmission has Three Speed
Ranges (fig. K7)
Engine power is transmitted to the hydraulic pump
by means of gearing. Transmission from the pump
onto the hydraulic motor of the gearing takes place by
means of liquid. Pump output is adjusted steplessly on
a drive lever between position 0 and the maximum +/-.
A combine equipped with hydrostatic transmission must never be parked using only the gear, but the
parking brake must always be engaged. A hydraulic engine cannot keep the combine stationary for any
length of time.
Shift the gear into neutral to enable towing, if the engine cannot be started for some reason. (In case of eased
gearboxes the gear lock prevents the shifting of gear into neutral.)
The combine is equipped with assistant four-wheel drive. There is hydraulic parallel connection between the rear
and the front wheels. When using speed range 2, the front and the rear wheels drive in relation to the axle weight.
Due to the parallel connection the peripheral speeds of the wheels adapt to different driving conditions even
within speed range 1. Rear-wheel drive is switched on electrically using switch on the instrument panel, fig. K8
(see operator´s controls and instruments page 24) The coupling can be done with the combine moving.
When towing the combine, four-wheel drive must be off and the engine running to allow the
wheel motors to be disengaged.
Switch four-wheel drive off when driving down a steep hill. The combine may rush forward
unless the rear wheels grip the ground. K8
29
Starting the ENGINE with the Ignition Key
The combine is equipped with a safety ignition system, which prevents the combine from moving when the
engine is being started. It allows the start-up to take place only with the traction speed control lever in neutral.
It is advisable, however, always to start the engine with the gear in neutral.
The engines are equipped with a pre-heating resistance controlled by the engine control unit. In cold weather it
functions automatically. When pre-heating switches itself on, control light C, fig. K9a, comes on. Start the engine
as soon as the control light goes off. After the engine has started, the heater switches itself on again for some
time.
The ignition lock allows only one start-up function. Turn the key to the “0” position before restarting.
Combines with hydrostatic transmission must not be started in temperatures below –15oC as the oil is
too stiff and the machinery may get damaged.
Before stopping the engine, move the throttle into the idling
position and disengage the threshing mechanism. Turn the
ignition key to the 0- position.

30
THE STAIRS (fig. K10a)
The stairs can be turned forward to the front of the
wheel to reduce combine width. They can be turned
standing on the ground by lifting locking lever A. The
turn can also be done standing on the cab landing by
lifting knob B to release the locking.
The stairs shall always be turned forward when the
combine is driven on the road without the cutting
table.

TOWING (figs. K14 and K15) Allowed from Towing
Points Only
The combine may be towed from designated points
only. When towing forward, the towline is hooked
to the link on the front axle, fig. K14. When towing
backward, wind the towline round the rear carrier, fig.
K15. The towline must not be wound round the rear
axle.
With the combine on tow, the operator must be in the
cab and the engine running to enable steering. The
brakes must be latched together and the gears in
neutral. Four-wheel drive must be off.
33
TABLE TRAILER (figs. K16, K17 and K18) for Road
Transport of Wide Cutting Tables
K16c
34
Drive the table above the trailer from the left-hand side
so that the knife is level with the trailer marking sticks
and brackets A at the rear of the table, fig K17, are
between carriers B. Lower the table slowly.
Make sure the table is positioned correctly:
Reverse slowly so that the rear end of the table is
against both the carrier limiters.
Lower the crop elevator further so that it becomes
disengaged from the cutting table and back up the
combine with caution. Raise the crop elevator as soon
as possible.
Push the rear locking pins into their locking position.
The trailer is equipped with a winch, which can be
used to pull the trailer to the combine hook after the
combine has been reversed near the trailer.
Hook the trailer to the combine and plug in the electric
cable.
Place the winch on the axle (fig17b), hook the table
with the winch and tighten. K17
Trailer on Tow
Extreme caution shall be exercised when towing the
trailer.
The total length of the vehicle is approx. 16 m, so
turning the vehicle requires space.
Do not turn the rear wheels to their extreme position
as the trailer arm may touch the rear wheel and the K17b
vehicle will get stuck.
However, if this is the case, back up the combine and
use the steering brake at the same time.
Reverse very carefully. Watch the trailer movements in
the mirror.

4th generation AGCO SISU POWER motors
has adopted exhaust gas treatment with SCR
technology (Selective Catalytic Reduction). In
SCR technology a liquid called DEF (Diesel
Exhaust Fluid) is injected into exhaust gases. Most
commonly known trademarks of DEF are AdBlue,
Air1 and Greenox.
L53
Be careful when handling DEF. DEF is aggressive to some materials and corrosive
to some metals. DEF becomes crystalline when in contact with air. In case of a spillage
rinse with plenty of water and dry with a clean cloth.
Even small amounts of diesel fuel in DEF tank may damage the gaskets of the SCR
system!
Combine is not equipped with a heating system for DEF, so use of combine below -10 ° C temperatures is
prohibited. Start up and short-term transfers are possible.
AGCO SISU POWER SCR system is durable and almost maintenance free. Only main filter change for
supply module is required in normal use. AGCO SISU POWER SCR is equipped with on-board diagnostic,
which will warn the operator or limit the usage of the machine if any problems (e.g. leakages or blocking
of lines) occur in the system.

COMVISION
This section deals with the use of the COMVISION monitor. In addition to grain losses the monitor also measures the
threshed area, the threshing time used, it estimates the finishing time for the section, monitors and alarms the rotation
speeds of certain shafts, adjusts reel speed, controls the grain tank filling up and measures the amount and quality of
the returns. Comvision shows also engine information.
Harvesting adjustments are controlled in Comvision.
The equipment consists of a touchscreen main unit, loss sensors, pulse sensors and limiter switches. The
equipment is connected to the forward speed sensor, the threshing cylinder, CSP and fan speed sensors,
the grain tank sensors and the straw alarm sensor. There is a sensor on the return auger to measure the
amount of returns.

Operation / adjustment
There is no separate power switch in the equipment, but it gets switched on when the engine is started. Starting
up takes a while.
The basic factory settings can be adjusted to suit the conditions.
Rotation control
Alarm limits have been set on shaft rotation control. These limits can be adjusted if necessary. The fan and
cylinder limits depend on the variator adjustment. An advisable alarm limit is 8-20% below normal speed. Alarm
can be switched off if so required.
89
Service
Loss sensors require regular service. Their surfaces must be kept clean. In damp conditions dirt may accumulate
on the sensor surfaces. Remove the dirt while still damp. Do not use a sharp tool, as the surface is a microphone
cover.
Check the condition of the pulse sensors from time to time.
The sensor for the amount of returns may also get dirty. It can be cleaned through the service door on the
housing of the returns threshing machinery.

Crop Elevator Angle Sensor, Fig. L87
The lever mechanism of the height sensor on the right side
of the crop elevator becomes easily bent. When carrying out L87
maintenance work, make sure not to damage the levers and
the sensor.
WARNING!
When carrying out service jobs on hydraulics, ensure that
the pressure stored in the system is released in a safe
manner.
• Because of the counter valve and the additional gas
accumulator installed in the pipes, there is always
some pressure in the hydraulic control valves. This can
be released with the engine stopped by pressing the
manual control studs at the ends of the solenoids on the
table side tilt valve with a pin (Fig. L88).
• The valve is of double-acting type. Both the solenoids
must be pressed alternately as the accumulator holds
enough oil for a couple of tilting movements. The tilt bar
in front of the crop elevator (and the table) move during
this function. Make sure nothing gets squeezed by the
bar while it moves.
Lubrication
The rear joints in the cutting table sensor runners are to be
lubricated with grease every 50 hours.
The front joint in the sensor runners are to be lubricated with
oil every 50 hours.

DRIVING AND THRESHING INSTRUCTIONS
Before Starting the Combine Check that:
Models with no separate stopper are stopped by turning the ignition key to the “STOP” position.
Note! Do not stop the engine, especially if turbo-charged, immediately after threshing. Idle the engine
for a few minutes to allow it to cool off and the temperature to equalize.
Do not have the ignition on for over 15 minutes on models equipped with distributor pumps unless the
engine is running as the injection pump solenoid may overheat.
To listen to the radio, turn the ignition key left from the STOP position while pressing the key down. This turns on
the current to the radio only, so there is no risk of the solenoid overheating.
On engines equipped with a line-type pump, the cold weather starting automation gets always
switched on when the engine is stopped.
Engines with distributor type of feed pumps are equipped with a pre-heating resistance controlled by the engine
electronic control unit. In cold weather it functions automatically. When pre-heating switches itself on, control light
C, fig. K9a, comes on. Start the engine as soon as the control light goes off. After the engine has started, the
heater switches itself on again for some time.
If the engine has not started within 15 seconds, wait for a while and ignite again as above.
Combines with hydrostatic transmission must not be started in temperatures below -30° C as the oil is too stiff,
and may damage the mechanism. (In case stiffer grade VG46 oil is used in the driving hydraulics, the lowest
temperature to allow starting is -15° C.)
98
When Starting Off:
Select the required speed range with the traction speed control lever in the mid-position.
Push the speed lever slowly forward or backward to drive the combine in the required direction.
Select the required speed using the speed lever.
Do not start off until the hydraulic oil has warmed up. Stiff oil strains the shaft seals on the traction pump
Test the brakes.
Note! Speed range 3 is only meant to be used when driving on the road with the grain tank empty. Using
it on the field is prohibited.
Changing of Gears:
To improve the carrying capacity, the air pressure in the front tyres may be reduced by approx. 20 kPa (0.2 bar).
Do not reduce the air pressure in the rear tyres.
With reduced tyre pressure, only half-fill the grain tank.
When returning to normal harvesting conditions or on the road, return to recommended pressures.
On Steep Slopes:
Increase the tyre pressure by approximately 30 kPa (0.3 bar) to improve the stability of the combine.
Only half-fill the grain tank to eliminate the risk of overturning.
99
THRESHING INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting the harvest, make sure that the crop to be threshed is ripe and dry enough.
The germinating power of most crops is easily reduced if the threshing moisture exceeds 25%.
Moist crops easily stick to the separation surfaces and conveyors, in which case the combine needs to be
cleaned more often than recommended.
Particularly in dry conditions with moisture below 12%, straw becomes chopped extremely easily. This will hinder
the straw walker operation and burden the shaker shoe excessively.
Always run the engine at maximum revolutions when threshing. When threshing, it is important to adjust the
forward speed, the cutting height and the reel according to crop conditions to achieve as even feed as possible.
Do not cut too low. Leafy matter moistens the straw leading to a poor threshing result.
Empty the stone trap at least once a day. Before emptying, stop the engine, apply the parking brake and fit the
cutting table support.
M2
100
For laid-down crops, set the reel forward, reel speed
higher than the combine ground speed and the reel
angled to facilitate the gathering of the crop, the knife
cutting below the heads, fig. M3.
When using crop lifters, the reel should feed the cut
crop onto the feed auger with the reel tines in the
normal position.
Before readjusting, make a methodical check in the above order to isolate the cause of the loss. Make one
adjustment at a time and check the result with a test run.
Check the crop in front of the combine to ensure that shedding has not occurred before the machine has touched
the crops.
To test for the table loss, stop the machine and reverse it one combine length; the grain loss can easily be seen
in the field.
101
Causes of table loss:
The reel has threshed the grain onto the field due to too high or low revolutions and too wide a clearance.
Local blockage in the knife causes a depressed and uncut section in the field. This may be due to a damaged
knife plate or finger.
Remember that uneven feed onto the cylinder causes disturbances in the whole threshing mechanism and
machinery and leads to extensive grain losses.
Check that the grain gets threshed off the heads. Check the long straw on the straw walkers as the chopper also
removes the unthreshed grains efficiently.
Cylinder speed should be moderate and concave clearance as wide as possible to obtain unbroken grain
and straw as well as minimal grain losses. It is not necessary to aim at complete threshing. Particularly when
threshing seed grain, the minimal recommended speed setting for the cylinder should be used, as high cylinder
speed damages germinability more easily than minimal concave clearance.
If the moisture of the crop to be threshed is low and the straw brittle, the concave fore/aft adjustment ratio can be
modified by changing the setting of the “ratio adjustment plate”. The normal factory setting is 2:1. Settings 1.5:1
and 1:1 can also be used, which means a narrower front clearance can be used without unnecessarily shredding
the straw.
The threshing effect and breaking of barbs can be improved by fitting filler plates under the front of the concave.
1-2 filler plates are usually enough.
If the sample coming from the sieves (taken on a shovel) shows grain being lost, check for the following:
If the sample coming from the straw walkers shows grain being lost, check for the following:
Uneven feed
Blocked concave and/or straw walkers
Excessive forward speed
Cylinder-concave clearance too small
Too much weed
Crop too damp
102
Quality of Sample in the Tank:
If there is crushed or cracked grain in the sample, the reason could be:
Malfunction Problems
103
Cleaning Instructions When Going From One Crop To Another
Drive the combine on level open ground. Change the gear into neutral and lock the parking
brake. Remove the ignition key whenever the engine is switched off to ascertain that no
outsiders can start the combine. Do not implement any cleaning operations with the engine
running!
Cleaning with compressed air is recommended. An appropriate brush can also be used.
Support the reel and the cutting table in their top positions.
Open the stone trap and empty it with a cassette key, for instance.
Open all cleaning doors (not those to the grain tank).
Remove and clean all sieves.
Clean the supporting grooves of the sieves in the shaker shoe.
Lock the back door in the shaker shoe.
Remove and clean the bottom grooves in the straw walkers.
Run the threshing mechanism for 2-3 min. with the cleaning fan at maximum speed.
Lift and lower the cutting table, but do not start it. Leave the table in its bottom position.
Stop the threshing machinery.
Check that the grain pan is empty. If necessary, remove and clean the cassettes.
Check the spaces between the return and grain augers and remove any remaining grain.
Shake the chain of the feed auger to make the grains run down. Clean the auger inside and out.
Clean the cutting table.
Remove the bottom augers of the grain tank and the part of the unloading auger in the grain tank. Brush the
bottom furrows, discharging the grains through the bottom door.
Clean the unloading auger by turning the auger counter-clockwise with the pipe being raised half way up to
make the grains run out through the bottom door.
After cleaning, refit the parts and close the doors.
104
APPROXIMATE SETTINGS
This table only gives recommendations for settings. While threshing, adjust the settings according to the
harvesting conditions.
Threshing
Concave Shaker Shoe Fan
Cylinder
The normal concave front:rear clearance ratio is 2:1. In dry conditions when the straw is extremely brittle, it is
advisable to use concave ratio 1.5:1...1:1, i.e. the clearance at the rear of the concave is bigger than in the normal
setting. This will reduce straw damage and walker losses.
105
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Safety
Installations and adjustments can only be made by a
person with the required skills and qualifications and the
necessary knowledge of the machine in question.
Installations, adjustments and repairs must be carried
out with the engine switched off and the ignition key

HYDRAULICS
General Description
The combine has four separate hydraulic circuits: traction hydraulics, the combined working and steering
hydraulics, the combined drive hydraulics for the reel and the chaff spreader and the low-pressure connection
hydraulics. All the circuits use the same oil tank and filter.
There are three pumps in the system. They are located at the rear of the engine, in the distribution gear and form
an entity.
Hydrostatic steering and working hydraulics use a joint pump. Hydrostatic steering gets its oil by means of a
priority valve. The valve always supplies the amount of oil needed in steering and the rest can be used in other
working hydraulics.
There is a separate pump for reel rotation, which also drives the optional chaff spreader. The spreader gets
switched on when the threshing mechanism is started.
Traction hydraulics works in a closed circuit. The engine return oil returns straight into the pump. Connection
hydraulics uses the feed oil in traction hydraulics.
Depending on the specification, the combine may have 4WD. 4WD gets the oil from the main transmission by
means of a connection valve on the rear axle. With the drive switched off the rear wheels rotate freely and there
is no oil circulating in the final drives.
There is also an oil cooler in the system located in the traction hydraulics return line before the filter.
The cooler functions are controlled by means of a thermostat valve.
The control valves in working hydraulics are electrically controlled. There are working hydraulics valves in two
location. The valves above the right mudguard houses the control valves of table height, free circulation and the
control valves of the unloading pipe. The one in the side of the feeder elevator houses the control valves of the
reel lift and for/aft, the cutting table side tilt and reverse.
Movement speeds are regulated by restrictors at the control valve gates except for the table lowering speed,
which can be adjusted by the operator.
The valve for reel rotation is located under the left-side guard below the engine.
The connection and torque regulator valve for the optional chaff spreader is located below the oil tank.
The control valve for connection hydraulics is located next to connection cylinders.

Battery
The gas generated by the battery is very explosive. Avoid open fire and sparks in the vicinity of the
battery. When servicing any electrical equipment, disconnect the negative cable of the battery.
During the harvesting period the engine recharging equipment keeps the battery charged. At other
times, check the state of the battery at regular intervals and recharge if necessary. An acid gauge
may be used for checking. In the table below you can see the charge state of the battery compared with the acid
specific weight.
Do not leave a flat battery unused for a long time. A low-charged battery freezes easily and exposure to frost will
cause extensive damage. If a recharging device is available, recharging can also be done at home.
Before starting to recharge:
Disconnect the battery cables.
Check the fluid level.
Use 5-10 % of the Ah of the battery for charging current. For example: A 180 Ah battery may be recharged using
7…14 ampere current. Recommended recharging interval is 6 -10 weeks.
Note! Wrong connection of either the battery or the generator will damage the generator.
Before electrical welding, disconnect the battery and generator cables.
143
Using of an Auxiliary Battery
When fitting electrical accessories to the combine, it must be noted that the capacity of the charging generator is
200A. The total consumption of a standard combine exceeds 100 A in the dark comprising:
Headlights 12 A
Working lights 54 A
Fan in the cab 14 A
Air conditioning 10 A
Electric engine adjustment 30 A
144
LUBRICATION
Do not lubricate while the engine is running. Remove the ignition key and lock the parking brake before starting
lubricating. The cutting table and reel supports shall be locked or lowered when lubricating.
The table below gives recommended lubricants to be used at different temperatures. The table also gives
different types of air conditioning liquids, although they do not normally have to be changed.

When shipped from the factory, the combine is filled with oil suitable for the temperature range of –10…+30 o C.
When the oil is changed, make sure the oil used meets the prevailing temperature requirements.
145
If the combine is used in areas where only biologically decomposable hydraulic oils shall be used, the
Manufacturer is to be consulted about the choice of oil.
Correct lubrication is of major importance to the perfect functioning and long working life of the combine, due to
which the lubrication recommendations shall be followed carefully while simultaneously monitoring if any place
demands more lubrication.
All the lubricants shall be pure. Even slightest impurities may cause damage. Oil fillers and nipples shall be wiped
clean. The nipples are lubricated with grease in accordance with the lubrication table. Apply machine or engine
oil to places to be oiled.
The safety clutches and the variator pulleys must be lubricated carefully. Excessive lubrication will cause
unnecessary slipping of the clutches and damage to the belts, if lubricants come into contact with the belts or
friction plates.
After lubrication the variator pulleys are adjusted with the threshing mechanism running between different speed
ranges, which will spread the lubricants evenly on the surfaces.

STORAGE WHEN NOT IN USE
To guarantee the operating reliability of the combine, proper service and storage are of great importance. The
service before winter storage can be divided into three parts, in order of performance: cleaning, checking and
protection. A dry store or shed is ideal storage for the combine.
Cleaning:
Open the stone trap and all doors. Remove and wash all detachable guards, sieves, the bottom cassettes of
the grain pan and straw walkers as well as the grain tank bottom augers. Dirt is efficiently removed from a dry
combine by compressed air. A high-pressure washer may be used with caution. To reduce drying time use warm
water and idle the threshing machinery.
Do not direct water jets at the bearings, as the packing does not hold against a strong spray of water.
In normal seasons, it is not necessary to wash the inner parts of the combine with water; the inside of the
combine can be raked clean with a suitable tool. Apply suitable solvent on heavily greasy spots before washing.
Start cleaning from the top. Clean the radiator cells by blowing air from the direction of the wings.
Checking:
Take a pen and paper and write down all the shortcomings and required service measures in the following order:
Condition of the knives.
Draw-in fingers and bearings.
Slip damages and breaks in belts and the remaining tensioning margin.
Condition of and basic settings for the cylinder and concave.
Condition of the grain pan and shaker shoe packing.
Bearing clearances and fastenings.
Wear, corrosion and dents.
Rotor knives and counter-knives of the chopper as well as rotor bearings.
It is important to have the recorded defects repaired before storage to ensure the efficient functioning of the
combine at the beginning of the following harvesting season.
Protection:
After protection all the cleaning doors, the grain pan and straw walker bottoms and sieves are left open to
produce a draught inside the combine. This will prevent rodents from nesting in the inner parts of the combine.
Also leave the service door to the instrument panel open!
Pre-storage Service of Cab Ventilation:
Filters are cleaned. Air channels on the cab top and the ventilator unit with its cells are also cleaned. This may be
done with a vacuum cleaner.
149
Pre-storage Service of the Air Conditioner:
Use compressed air to clean the cooler condenser and evaporator cells. In case the combine engine is run during
storage, the cooler should also be switched on for a few minutes. To operate the cooling system in cold weather,
have the heater on at full capacity and the ventilator fan stopped for approx. 15 min. during which time the air
conditioning sensor will warm up and enable the switching on of the compressor. After this the ventilator fan is run
at its lowest speed and the cooling at full capacity.
Pre-storage Service of the Engine:
Change the oil in the gearbox. Clean the magnet in the bottom plug and the breather filter.
Clean the air filter.
Disconnect the battery, the negative pole first, clean the top of the battery with warm water and store it in a dry
cool place.
Clean the cable lugs and apply grease to them.
It is not necessary to remove or loosen the V belts for storage.
Check the tyre air pressure.
Lubricate all points to be lubricated and run the threshing machinery after that.
Lower the cutting table and the pick-up reel to allow the cylinder pistons to go in.
