In Reply to: Wheat Cutting capacity of 1952 Super Massey-Harris Combine posted by bthorman on September 05, 2019 at 14:12:57:

Dad and the neighbor used smaller pull type combines to combine oats. Dad started with two #62 IH
combines, one to run, second for parts on weekends. A Deere #25 replaced them both but the #25 still had
canvases which were a terrible way to feed the crop into a combine. The salesman for the local Deere
dealer decided to sell his #30 Deere combine and Dad must have been the first one there with the money.
#25 & #30 both 7 ft cut, same width cylinder and everything else the same behind the cylinder. Could
get 15-20 acres done in an afternoon. Deere made two different gearboxes, one ran the combine, OR the
unloading augers for the 25 bushel grain tank, other gearbox ran the combine, and in other position ran
the combine AND the unloading augers, which Dad put on both combines and he stopped the combine, engaged
the unloading auger, started the combine again and unloaded on the go, when grain bin was empty you could
shut the augers off on the go. When I got old enough to haul in and unload the wagons we could get the 20
acres but it was a long day. We'd start after lunch, run 3 to 3-1/2 mph, maybe a bit faster if the oats
were standing good. A hydrostatic drive tractor pulling the combine would have been great.
