I thought that I new quite a lot about Allis-Chalmers, but I had never heard of an All-Crop Hillside combine.

Does anyone on the Forum know how they worked? How did the self-leveling shoe work?

If any of you could draw a simple diagram of how it worked, I would appreciate it much.

Thanks,

Dean(IA)

Would it not have been similar to the old conventional with wheel height adjustments. Can't imagine a self leveling shoe but I've been wrong before.

Arland Lepper in Hubbard IA has a working one in his collection. It's a very interesting machine.

We have a large collection of AllCrop manuals at the farm and I am pretty sure there are drawings and pictures in atleast one of them. I will look this afternoon but someone might have to help post the pictures. Ryan
