Couple questions on an All Crop 90

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I came across an All Crop 90 about an hour and a half north of me and I have a couple questions about it, as I have never been around one before. The guy is asking $1,000 firm. The machine has dual tires, scour klean, extra screens, and a working cylinder RPM gauge. I think it also comes with the original books as well. The owner says it’s ready for the field. To me this sounds like a very solid original machine with lots of add ons. Yes, I know part are scarce for these machines but I would not be running it as like a main machine on the farm, it would be a toy to play with here and there and take to some shows. 
(My questions)

1. Is an hour and a half close enough to pull the machine home behind a truck? And if so, would I have to make an off set hitch for the truck or does the hitch on the machine swing close enough to the center of mass?
2. Is 30 PTO horsepower enough to operate the machine well in conditions with a green soy bean here and there in the field, but with no weeds?
3. What is the weight of the machine? 

Thank you!

	An hour and a half with just a vehicle is going to be double that pulling the combine. It will travel fine but not at 60 mph. You realistically will only be traveling around 30 mph depending on road conditions. You will need to build an off - set hitch because even with the machine closed it will still stick way out to the left. A 30 hp tractor will be a little light. When they were built 45 to 50 hp was recommended as in a WD-45 or D-17 tractor. The machine weighs around 4650 according to Norm Swinfords book and thats empty weight. The grain bin holds 30 bushel. If you have the bin full of wheat that adds almost another 2000 lbs of weight so you want a decent tractor on the front that can pull that amount of weight while also running the machine. You don't want very soft ground or it will not pull well, the reason it has duals on it. I have had one for over 20 years and mostly just use it for cutting clover seed as they do an excellent job of cleaning and mine also has factory option duals on it. Hope this helps. Any other questions just ask. Don Jr.
