formerly ny bill · Apr 25, 2017

a friend has a JD 45 combine he is going to bring to a consignment auction coming up this saturday. 10' grain head is on it. he also has a 2 row corn head that he doesn't need. i told him if he consigned it, the junk man would probably get it, and he doesn't want that. maybe one of you guys are looking? its in upstate NY.

The No. 10, No. 210, no. 34 and No. 35 were the heads for a 45 machine and the 34 had to be a wide axle machine or extensions that could be put in. If you reversed the wheels it would be too wide for the next rows. The 10 was the orignal head for the early hi machines. the 210 was for the hi-lo machines and also the first or possibly second year of the square back, then the 34 for a bit before it was replaced with a better gead the 35, then the 3 row 30" head was a 313. And ALL of them had the attached feeder house. I don't know if there was any way to mount a head from a 3300 or 4400 on the 45. My 4 45's and 2 210 & 2 35 heads along with my 313 head went to the junk yard several years ago when I quit farming. The 63 round back had become a parts machine and I could not get the 62 round back and 69 square back to run anymore and the 65 square back the bottom of the hopper had rusted out.

yes, the feeder house is attached to the head. he actually has 2 heads. 42" rows, but he was using it in 36" corn. one head has a working oiler and worn but usable gathering chains; the other has good chains but the oiler is broken. he also has the filler plates that go between the rasp bars, and owners manuals.
email if you want the guy's phone no.

The heads are actually set on a 39" spacing center of rolls to center of rols on other row for the rows to work with 42" to 36" rows but work the best on 40" rows (38" you are getting too close to row on out side of each wheel) and I dought if Deere has any parts avaible anymore. I know back when I was using them even the coupling to repair a broken greas line was not avaible any more. And it was called a multi-luber and used not only on the corn heads but also the corn pickers and could be gotten on the corn planters. If a line got busted you never knew that thea particular bearing never got any lube untill it went out. And I still have a part of a bottle of the multi-luber grease here and it is a special grease, would guess it to be someware between a 140 weight and a 90 weight gear oil. Not as heavy as the current corn head grease.

That multiluber oil is actually still available. I bought 3 bottles of it this past fall to use on my 234 head from Deere.

I tried emailing you a few days ago, I haven't heard anything back?

sorry about that. my wife and i haven't seen anything in the inbox or junk mail sections from you. when you sent the first reply, did the screen say something to the effect that the message had been sent?
please try again. i have been busy with the auction and not checking this forum as often as i usually do.
