Could you guys post some pics of your gleaner combines!
I really like the looks of the M’s L’s and the hated N series!
Would like to get myself an N7 and an L or M
But I also like to look at older gleaners my neighbor has a nice K that he uses to harvest his whole farm!!

I hope the pics are sized better now.

First three are of my 1981 L2. After that my 1967 E back in 1992 and then the last 2 pics are of my brother's All Crop 66 that I used maybe about 2008 or so. My Dad is driving my WD (used to be his WD) and Dad is latching up the unloader in one pic while one of my daughters is watching from my Massey 30.

Lonn, I wondered about that as well when I first saw it. 
Those belong to a friend of mine. He and his uncle used to cut wheat together with a pair of M2s and the L3, and they needed a way to tell the combines apart in the field. Their solution was for each of them to paint their initials on the M2 combines. One of the guy's initials was L.A.W. The L3 stood out enough with its dual fuel tanks.

Wait a minute now. Is it just the looks of the N series you didn't like or the job they did? As for the N series, a pair of N6's, an '81 & an '84, kept our farm going until a late R62 came along.

WayneIA, is your 10 row corn-head a 15", 20" or 24" row spacing? It looks like a great narrow row setup. Your R50 looks great, too. Is it still powered by the air-cooled Duetz?

Does anyone have a 6 row corn head, for 20" or 24" row spacing setting behind their barn?

 AC7060IL It is a 6 row 36" head that I cut down and made into a 10 row 20".  Been running 20" for about 4 years now and wouldn't go back to 30".  I farm generally lighter soil and it helps keep the weeds down, shade the ground to hold moisture, and in yield checks have yielded better than 30".  It still has the air Deutz in it for a power plant.  I was concerned having an air cooled engine but the local dealer told me not to worry and keep up with any oil leaks and it would be fine.  I've messed with a couple people around home with the air cooled.  One day I was in the local Deere dealer (for Stihl parts) and was talking to a guy and he mentioned they had to change the engine oil cooler on his son's 9500 Deere combine since it was leaking coolant again (claimed $2000 part).  I mentioned my combine blew coolant everywhere, but it never ran out and never got hot.  He had a puzzled look on his face till I told him it was an air Deutz.  Deere parts man gave me a look though.

Here is the short period when I owned both an L2 and an M2. Sold the M2 to a neighbor before I ever got to run it.

Here's the pic I was looking for. Might be the small version and I hope not too small. My 1967 E in 2010.

Do the late model Gleaners still say "Allis Chalmers" on them? It looked like that R52 of Lonn's might have had an AC logo on top of the cab between the head lights, or it could have been an Agco logo. I couldn't tell, I didn't see any other reference to Allis on it. I'm not knocking it, it's a very nice machine. I just wondered if they still referred back to their roots.

Don, that is a cool grain bin cover on your machine, never seen one like that before.  I always wondered why US combines don't have covers on the bins, I know for a fact that full grain bins with no space to dump it attracts cloudbursts!

Thanks John for posting about the top, I love the top it works nice with the little door I can leave off to see how full the tank is but the best part of the top is my Dad built it for me, makes me think about Dad running the old "A" The top will not go with the combine if it ever go's down for the count.

It went from Allis-Chalmers to Duetz-Allis to AGCO on the combines. My 52 says AGCO and that was back when AGCO willingly called itself Allis Gleaner as AGCO used to stand for Allis Gleaner Company but today Massey Ferguson runs AGCO and denies that AGCO ever did stand for Allis Gleaner Company.

I Love The Picture Of The Gleaner Coming Out Of The Tall Corn!!! That is so cool. A K2 is a long way from being a new machine. But in that picture, it looks as good as it did the second day off of the line at Independence. Or the first day off of the dealers lot.

JimWenigOH, Yes that is a great looking Gleaner K2 & A330 black cornhead. Viewing from the location of it's exhaust stack, I'd say it has the GM250 6 cylinder gasoline engine. Combines looks to be the first of the longback style - 1978? How many hours on it? How'd your corn yield this year?

I still run a 78' K2 330 combination too. I love counting over multiple of 3 row increments to start a new through into tall corn. It's smaller grain tank size keeps wagons close. 
Here's a photo of it in a 2017 field of 320bu/acre corn. I peeled the husk back to get an appreciation of the ears.  


In the background on second photo, your cool old Army 6 wheeler grain truck is not messing around - all business. How many bushels can it haul?

Posted By: JimWenigOH
Date Posted: 18 Dec 2018 at 9:44pm
Thanks for the compliments fellers. The K2 is a 1978 with the GM 250 gas engine, as far as hours go, I don't know. Per the usual, the wiring had been worked on by the mice prior to me buying it at auction. I went through the combine front to back and top to bottom upgrading where ever I could. The corn made 172 bpa which I was happy with. I was running 3.4 to 3.8 mph w/o blowing it out the back. The truck is a 1972 M817, 5 ton dump truck. With the sides on it will hold 330 bu.

Without hijacking the post, does anyone know how the new S series stack up against the new Fendt?


Posted By: Unit3
Date Posted: 19 Dec 2018 at 8:28am
Wouldn't that be a fun video to watch. Can Big Black be shipped with the wheels and tires on? How much does it weight? I too would like to see a contest between their class 8 & 9 against the Gleaner S98. The Sisu inline 7 cylinder engine in the Gleaner is oh so strong. I might be closer than AGCO would like. If you haven't guessed it by now, I really love the Gleaner cross rotor. It is so simple.

  One thing I love the looks of is the hi-bred header we see the Fendt pushing. A draper belt that pulls the crop backward off of the sickle and into a cross auger. The crop flows in so nice. How would it work in beans and would you still want an air reel?

I think i recently saw an old Massey video from the 1980's using a head like that.

Harvested both 1968 and 69, then worked at the Gleaner factory in the summer of 70. have been trying to write down what I remember, but after 50 some years that is a little thin. Here is the Gleaner G model I operated. Me with the bad hat
