Hi everyone, this is my first post as a new member. We are looking at upgrading our old combines to a newer one. Up until 2 years ago, the only machine I knew was Massey until we bought a 1460. The model we are looking at is a 2188.
What are the things that I should be looking at as "troublespots" or weak points on these machines when looking at the used combines?
Are there any advantages in a specialty rotor over a standard rotor?
Did yield/mapping monitors come with this model of unit as an option?
Do the standard spreaders do an adequate job of spreading heavy trash (irrigation) or should we look at an aftermarket add-on?
Our main crops up here are wheat, barley, oats, flax, soybeans.
Thanks in advance.
