We harvest about 80 acres of dry beans, 80 acres of soybeans, and 200 acres of small beans.
I've come across a 1660 with specialty rotor in "good condition" with about 6000 hours.
Questions: The dry beans are our highest value crop. Because of our terrain and our stones, we can only run a 13' flex head and a slow ground speed for bean harvest (we direct cut)- meaning that the 1660 would be running way below capacity. Just wondering how this will effect the quality of my harvest.
Also, 6000 hours is a lot - is it too much? I haven't seen the combine yet. Anything particular to look for?
