In-Season Combine Inspection
A quick look at concaves, chains and bearings between fields catches the wear that turns into a shutdown. We can come to you rather than pull the machine off the run.
In-Season Combine Inspection ›Grain Loss Check While You Harvest
Corn and beans coming off at different moistures means settings that worked last week are leaving bushels behind. We can walk a field with you and dial it in.
Grain Loss Check While You Harvest ›Tillage and Fall Application Setup
Ripper points, disk bearings and applicator pumps get ignored until the combine leaves the field. Getting them checked now keeps fall work moving behind harvest.
Tillage and Fall Application Setup ›Belts, Chains and Bearings on the Shelf
The parts that fail mid-afternoon are the ones worth owning before you need them. Stock a spare set for your combine and head so a failure costs an hour, not a day.
Belts, Chains and Bearings on the Shelf ›Concaves, Rasp Bars and Head Wear Parts
Snapping rolls, knife sections and gathering chains wear fastest in dry, dirty corn. Swapping worn parts now protects both your sample and your ground speed.
Concaves, Rasp Bars and Head Wear Parts ›Filters, Oil and Lights
Dusty conditions load air filters quicker than most folks expect, and harvest days run well past dark. Keep filters and replacement lamps in the shop truck.

We Run When You Run
Harvest does not keep banker's hours, and neither do we. Our stores across Ohio and Indiana keep parts counters staffed and service techs reachable through the run so a breakdown at dusk is not a lost day.
Find a locationHow do I cut combine grain loss in dry corn?
Slow rotor speed, open the concave and check the back of the machine with a drop pan. Dry corn shells easy and cracks easier, so less aggression usually means more bushels in the tank.
What should I check on the combine daily during harvest?
Air filter, engine and hydraulic oil, belt tension, chain lube and the rotary screen. Ten minutes each morning beats a roadside repair at eight at night.
Can I get a service tech to the field during harvest?
Yes. Call your nearest of our stores across Ohio and Indiana, and we will get a mobile tech routed to you as fast as the schedule allows.
