Well, we just finished soybeans tonight, and just have a few acres left to drill. The area where we are cutting in the pictures was a little too wet to get the trucks in, so we had to have the 8630 pull the grain cart back to the trucks every time to dump. Since the yield was pretty good, there was alot of waiting time. Here are the pictures.

Off he goes to the trucks.
Waiting for him to come back
I was trying to line the combine up with the sun, and as you can see it didn't turn out that well.
Getting some of the family in there
This ADM plant was giving a little higher price for soybeans, and could only hole 4500 bushels. We had to have one of the trucks go back because they didnt have room. This is what the line looked like at 6:30!
An old silage chopper I found by the elevator.
Here is one of the 3 trucks.

I Have some more pictures i will upload a little later.
Looks like the 8630 is close to the platform, great combine and also the truck, it looks like it could haul alot, see you have something hanging on the unloading auger is this a marker for the grain cart to get in the right postion.
A good looking 9500 I see. The beans look like they averaged around 55 bpa. Same we got here. What year was the 8630? We had a '78 and we put a good solid 3900 hours on it in two and a half years.
For those of you who have older S-680s or S 690s I have a few questions.
I put 325+ separator hours a year on a 2014 S690 and am trying to figure out an average yearly repairs/maintenance that other people have with similar machines. I'm not including header maintenance, lease/ownership...
Im returning to the farm after 20 years and Im starting to update "within the last 20 years" some equipment. Anyway I purchased a 1996 John Deere 9500 on auction that has John Deere Greenstar yield monitor. Everything except the display or a gps. Im very new to precion ag but can anyone tell me...
Hey I have a 9670 with a very sloppy turbo actuator linkage it's a simple little rod but jd seems to think it's worth 770 bucks for something I can hold in my hand . Does anyone know where i can get one alot cheaper? Any feed back is appreciated thanks.
Hi guys,
I need to buy the tractor 9rx for seed sowing air drill N540 C.
I need to know
Fuel consumption per hour at full load.
Hydraulic oil consumption
Speed per hour how much area it can cover with the N540 C.
Consumptions and Maintenance for the N540 C
Also, what is the current...
I am going to replace the accumulators on the TLS on my 7720, both are weeping oil out the pressure caps and are no longer letting the suspension move.
I am going after market at this stage, should be 60% of JD. RE306377 AU$930
So my question is what pressure should they be pre-charged...
