I have a 775 which is almost the same as the 655. The only problem with these units were with the grain headers....the 21' header to be exact. The 18' headers were okay, but the drive system was too weak for the 21' header. I had to take the pitman drive off of a Massey 34 swather and mount it on my 775 to fix this problem. What happens is the bearings will always fail in the pitman drive or the pitman wobble support bushing will fail. There is sort of a double pitman setup on these units. The wobble drive pulley is hard to get at to replace the bearings. Make sure you keep the bearings adjusted..don't let them get too loose. Once you get this fixed, it is an excellent machine. Parts are getting limited, but you can fabricate most of what you need if you have to. The Auger Headers were real good as well. These units have a fabulous hydraulic lower and raise system that keeps the header parallel with the ground as it goes down. The grain header lays a very nice swath too, but the hole is too small for Canola. Hope this helps you out.
