FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (ORANGE) (OPTIONAL)

IMPORTANT: To prevent damage to the hydrostatic


system, do not switch 4-Wheel Drive on
or off while driving combine in third

-UN-06AUG91
gear (road gear) at maximum travel
speed.

Move hydrostatic control lever to


number (4) on decal (when in third

H43702
gear) before switching 4-Wheel Drive
on or off.

When driving the combine in conditions


which cause high pressures in the
hydrostatic system and the combine
slows down or stops, move hydrostatic
drive lever to neutral and shift to a
lower gear.

The switch controls 4-wheel drive. Push upper symbol of


switch to engage or push lower symbol of switch to
disengage.

N CAUTION: Ground speed will increase when


disengaging four-wheel drive and will decrease
when engaging four-wheel drive.

It is NORMAL for front wheels to lose traction and spin


out before the rear wheels in most conditions. In
extremely muddy conditions, it may be necessary to
apply both brakes momentarily to increase hydrostatic
pressure to the 4-wheel drive motors.

When the drive is engaged, these approximate


reductions in ground speed occur:

•First Gear: 20%

•Second Gear: 30%

•Third Gear: 50%

SEAT SUSPENSION AND FORWARD AND


REARWARD ADJUSTMENT

Vertical shock dampener control (A) allows the operator


to limit the amount of “upward motion” the seat
suspension provides. Based on operating conditions, this
control has three detent positions.

These three detent positions usually cannot be felt. Push


control (A) all the way down for the softest ride. Move
the control all the way up for the firmest ride. Between
these two positions is the medium firmness position.

-UN-26AUG94
Height adjustment is made with a push/pull knob (B). To
raise the seat, push in on the knob. To lower the seat,
pull out on the knob.

H46207
NOTE: The suspension can be adjusted to reach limits
in the minimum and maximum heights, which in
effect, locks out the suspension system, making it
rigid. The suspension height control will also hit A—Vertical Shock Dampener Control
the limits if adjusted too close to the extremes. B—Height Adjustment Knob
C—Fore/Aft Adjustment Knob
Control (C) allows the seat to slide forward or rearward D—Fore/Aft Attenuator Lock-Out Handle
for best working position.

Attenuator lock-out handle (D) locks out or releases the


forward or rearward movement. Pull up on the handle to
lock; push down on the handle to release.

NOTE: If the seat does not float or “pump” up, see your
John Deere dealer.

The air seat also has the operator’s presence system


that is used on the standard seat. You must be seated
for the header and feeder house to operate.

After leaving the seat, the header and feeder house will
stop in five seconds.

To engage, sit down, shut header off and then turn it on.
Header and feeder house should start running again.

This procedure is shown on a decal under the armrest.

HARVESTING HINTS

This combine can be adjusted to harvest almost any


crop under most conditions. Become familiar with the
following before beginning:

-UN-11OCT88
The crop must be ready to thresh. Moisture content must
not be too high and straw must not be too green. Grain
with 12 per cent moisture or less, and corn with 14 per
cent moisture or less, is considered dry enough for safe

H39280
storage.

H01,9000CSL,A -19-20MAR90

Adjust the combine for the crop being harvested and the
field condition.

Use a ground speed that will not overload the combine.


The engine must be at full rpm to keep the separator at

-UN-11OCT88
full speed. Use ground speed for slower travel or shift to
a lower gear, but do not slow down the engine.

H39100
H01,9000CSL,B -19-20MAR90

If the concave is set too close for the crop being


harvested, the straw will be excessively ground up and
more horsepower will be required to thresh the crop.

If the concave is set too wide, the crop will not be

-UN-11OCT88
completely threshed.

After the concave is properly adjusted, the cylinder


speed is then adjusted to achieve maximum threshing
with the least crop damage. If crop damage does occur,
H39281
do not widen the concave clearance. Instead, reduce the
cylinder speed. Concave spacing in these crops has very
little effect on seed damage.

Crops, such as edible beans and peas, are easily


cracked and can require the use of a special slow speed
cylinder drive. When combining edible beans and peas,
keep the combine full to provide enough material to
cushion the crop against cracking.

H01,9000CSL,C -19-20MAR90

45-1 240397
PN=91
Crop Settings and Seed Loss Charts

When using a cutting platform, cut the crop as high as


possible without loss of low heads. Adjust reel position
and speed for even feeding. Keep the cutterbar in
register and the guards in alignment for clean cutting.

When harvesting corn, keep the corn head only as low


as necessary for ears. Keep it centered in the rows to
prevent ear loss.

When using a belt pickup, keep the windrow centered so


material is fed evenly into the feeder house. The grain
heads must be lying in one direction. Operate the
combine so the heads are picked up first.

-UN-11OCT93
When harvesting soybeans with a row-crop head, keep
the header as low as possible. When harvesting crops
such as milo or sunflowers, operate the header just low
enough to cut the heads from the stalks.

H46106
Adjust chaffer openings with tool (A) to pass the grain or
seed to the lower sieve in the first two-thirds of the
chaffer without admitting too much coarse material.
Adjust the precleaner to the minimum setting for all
crops except corn.

Use as much air as possible without blowing over clean


grain and seed. Heavy crops require more air than light
seed crops.

SOYBEAN LOSS CHART (ROW-CROP


HEADS)

To determine soybean losses, operate the row-crop head


in from the ends of the field and where the crop is

-UN-14MAR89
typical of the entire field. Stop and back the combine
(4.5 m) 15 ft. away from standing soybeans.

Mark off an area from where drive tire tracks stop (A),
0.6 m (2 ft.) to point (B). Now mark off header width.

H39605
Check this area (C) for losses.

Soybean losses are determined by counting the number

CORN KERNEL LOSS CHART

The following kernel loss chart shows the number of


kernels that must be lost per square foot before a total
of one bushel per acre is lost. It also points out that a
few kernels lost behind the combine does not call for
numerous adjustments on the combine.

POWER SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE

NOTE: This procedure is the correct method for


performing a power shutdown of the separator.
The purpose of a power shutdown is to
determine the machine’s performance in the
threshing and separating areas by taking a
“snap-shot” of the material on the straw walkers.
This is valuable is determining where the losses
behind the machine are generated and what
adjustments can be made to correct the
condition.

1. Operate the machine to fill with crop.

2. Pull the hydrostatic lever to neutral and then quickly


complete step 3.

3. Momentarily shut off the key switch to kill the engine


while reaching over with left hand and disengage the
header and separator engage switches on the armrest
console. Quickly restart the engine to allow for turbo
charger lubrication.

4. After 30-60 seconds shut off the engine.

5. Inspect all five areas outlined in the Adjustment Flow


Chart in this section.

6. Inspect for excessive grain damage, kernels left on


the cobs, and free grain loss before making any
adjustments.

7. Once you have decided what adjustments need to be


made, open the concave clearance and engage the
separator (this will avoid undue stress to the cylinder
drive area during clean out).

8. Adjust the machine to the desired settings and


proceed harvesting.

9. Repeat this procedure and verify grain quality and


losses behind the combine.

10. Once acceptable loss levels are attained, set the


sensitivity on the HarvesTrak Monitor and continue to
harvest.

tightest the chain should ever be run.

H42390
Do not over-tighten chain to make center strands as tight
as outer strands. Center strands normally sag more
because of weight of slats and upward force from crop
material.

Bent eyebolts indicate excessive chain tension or slug


feeding.

-UN-01JUL92
Out-of-round sprockets or drum and bent shafts can
cause chain tension to be uneven, too tight, or too loose.

Shaft and bearing failure are often caused by excessive

TILT LOCKOUT (OPTIONAL)

You can operate some smaller headers on the Contour


Master feeder house, but not in a tilt mode. The 4-row
corn heads and 12 and 14-ft. belt pick-up platforms are

quite narrow and do not have sufficient space to
incorporate telescoping drive shafts. However, drive
couplers are available from your John Deere dealer to
operate these headers in a level-land mode. These
couplers are provided with a tilt lockout device to prevent

driveline damage in case the manual tilt button is
accidentally pressed.

The lockout device consists of a bracket (A) which is


bolted to the top of the feeder house and a new,
double-ended tilt cylinder attachment pin (B). The bracket
is designed to engage the pin and prevent the tilt
cylinder from extending or retracting. When a tilting
header is used, the lockout bracket can be loosened and
slid rearward to disengage the tilt cylinder pin.

WHEN TO USE WHAT RASP BAR

Extensive studies have shown that the type of rasp bar


used can have a significant effect on grain quality.

A variety of rasp bars are available for use on CTS


combines.

HX,S9500,A -19-18NOV96

HARDENED AND NON-CHROMED (BLACK)


RASP BAR

This serrated rasp bar has a gentle contoured surface


design which wears to an even smoother profile after

-UN-14MAR97
only 50 - 100 hours of use. The serrations of this bar
also provide good feeding to the threshing area in most
any crop condition. This rasp bar is recommended for
use in harvesting corn, popcorn, soybeans, malting
barley, edible beans or any seed crop where high quality

H48248
grain is demanded.

Due to the wear characteristics of this rasp bar, best


grain quality results are usually obtained by first “wearing
off” the bars new surface edges in a crop other than the
one that requires the highest quality.

HX,S9500,B -19-24MAR97

HARDENED AND CHROMED RASP BAR

The chrome overlaid skin of this rasp bar enables it to


provide twice the wear life of the non-chromed rasp bar.
While the chromed bar also features a smooth,
-UN-14MAR97

contoured profile design, any new sharp surface edges


won’t “wear off” as rapidly as on the non-chromed rasp
bar.

This rasp bar is not recommended for use in high


H48249

moisture corn or soybeans or any crop where the


highest quality grain is the main consideration. However,
the high-wear resistant surface of the chrome rasp bar
makes it ideally suited for “general use” in all crops
where long lasting, efficient threshing performance is
usually the primary concern.

HX,S9500,C -19-24MAR97

70-15 240397
PN=159
Separator

SMOOTH RASP BAR

The surface of this non-hardened bar has no serrations.


The smooth surface helps to deliver a “softer”, less
aggressive threshing impact than a regular rasp bar. The

-UN-14MAR97
thickness of this rasp bar is equal to a regular serrated
rasp bar. This bar is only recommended for use in food
corn, where the kernel’s epidermal layer is usually very
soft and delicate and therefore, prone to easy scuffing
and/or cracking.

H48250
The smooth rasp bar is not recommended for use in
corn where the stalks are damp or green or in crops that
have green viney stems or are weed-infested. In these
conditions, the flush even surface of the bar, can
contribute to abrupt slug feeding and/or material buildup
on the face of the concave.

HX,S9500,D -19-24MAR97

REPLACING RASP BARS AND FILLER


PLATE

Bent rasp bars must be replaced immediately because


they can cause machine damage or let unthreshed grain
pass.

Replacement rasp bars are sold in left- or right-hand


matched sets of five.

Tighten cap screws (A) and (B) to 75 N·m (55 lb-ft).

-UN-03OCT91
IMPORTANT: If all rasp bars are replaced at one
time, flutes on bars must be pointed in
opposite directions. Dirt buildup will
cause cylinder to be out of balance and

H43929
must be cleaned out.

In corn, install filler plates (C) between rasp bars. These


plates add to efficiency of the cylinder by keeping
unshelled ears from between rasp bars. They also help
deflect stones into the stone trap.

NOTE: Remove filler plates prior to operating in small


grain crops to prevent cylinder imbalance. Clip
nuts should be left on the cylinder heads.
Removal of the clip nuts may damage the clip
nuts.

REAR CONCAVE INSERTS (CORN


COMBINES)

Converts a short wire concave for harvesting corn.

The inserts (A) (which can also be used with the spike
tooth concave) prevent corn cobs from passing through
the open area at the rear of the short wire and spike
tooth concave to insure complete threshing.

Guidelines for when and when not to use inserts:

-UN-01JUL91
• Corn - Concave inserts should always be used when
harvesting high moisture corn (above 20%). Because
tighter concave settings are used to help get the kernel
off the cob, the inserts will hold any broken cob pieces

H43648
with unthreshed kernels in the concave area for more
complete threshing. Without the inserts, these cob pieces
with unthreshed kernels can fall through the concave on
to the cleaning area (chaffer) and can be found as
unthreshed field loss. In high moisture corn, the inserts
will also prevent the large open rear area of the concave
from plugging with green, damp husk and cob pieces.
The inserts can be removed in lower moisture (below
20%) where the husks are dryer and corn shells easier
(lower threshing speeds). In dry corn at faster ground
speeds (than typically used in wet corn) removal of the
inserts will allow additional separation needed at the
higher harvesting speeds.

• Soybeans - The use of concave inserts is primarily for


corn. Inserts (in or out) generally do not affect
performance in soybeans. Therefore, if the inserts have
been installed for high moisture corn and there is a need
to harvest soybeans the same day, do not remove the
inserts.

If the inserts have been removed and there is a need to


harvest soybeans the same day, do not install the
inserts.

NOTE: If hard-to-thresh soybeans or high cleaning shoe


load conditions exist, installing the inserts may be
beneficial.

GENERAL PURPOSE CHAFFER, 29 MM


(1-1/8 IN.)

This chaffer is suitable for corn, soybeans, sorghum,


small grains, oil seed crops, grass seed and many

-UN-11OCT88
specialty crops. It is recommended for dry conditions and
is resistant to “stabbing” of corn tassels and soybean,
safflower and sorghum stems.

When sappy weeds are a problem, this chaffer will

H39152
require occasional cleaning.

H01,9000SEP,BN -19-20MAR90

NON-ADJUSTABLE CHAFFER

This chaffer has fixed openings and stationary parallel


louvers across the underside. This fixed louver design
helps direct air flow straight up to deliver maximum air

-UN-11OCT88
lift to the chaff load while the fixed openings allow
recovery of grain.

While this chaffer offers good cleaning shoe capacity in


small grain conditions, the following limitations should be

H38921
noted:

1. Due to this chaffer’s high velocity air flow (generated


by the fixed openings and louvers), use is not
recommended in low yielding crop conditions.

2. This chaffer is not recommended for use in sidehill


crops.

3. Due to the size limitation of the fixed openings, this


chaffer is not recommended for use in extremely dry
small grain, corn, soybeans, sunflowers, rice, sorghum or
grass seeds.

4. It usually requires higher fan speeds than other


chaffers.

SEMI-DEEP TOOTH CHAFFER

This chaffer is suitable for high moisture/high yield corn.


It can also be used for sorghum, soybeans and small

There are conditions when this chaffer is subject to


“stabbing” and may require daily attention.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HANDLING

Electrical connectors must not be forcibly mated or


unmated. All are designed to be mated easily. If you
have to use tools, you may be doing something wrong.
Prying or forcing connectors may cause permanent
damage to the locking mechanism, contacts, or both.

-UN-01FEB89
When working on connectors, make sure you are
working on the correct terminal. Remember that male
and female halves are mirror images of one and other.
Look for the terminal number on the connector body.

H37083
The connection of improper electrical circuits can cause
unusual electrical symptoms.

When an electrical connector is repaired, it is important


that the proper terminals are used. In some of these
connectors, different terminals are used to carry different
currents. If contacts of different materials are mated,
corrosion may develop that could affect performance.

When removing terminals from a connector, it is very


important to use the correct extraction tool and gently
remove the terminal. The connector body can be
damaged if terminals are just “jerked” out of it. The
damage caused will prevent the new terminal from
staying in the connector and cause replacement of the
connector body.

When installing a new terminal on a wire, make sure the


insulation crimp and wire crimp are both made properly.
Each part of the terminal crimps is designed for a
specific purpose. Failure to properly crimp the wire
contact area can result in poor or no electrical contact.
Failure to crimp the insulation support properly can result
in problems getting the terminal into the connector body,
thus causing premature failure.

DIAGNOSTIC CODES

On 9500 and 9600 Combines, the tachometer may


display a number of diagnostic codes relating to engine
operation. The 9400 Combine does not have an
electronic engine control and should not display these
codes. If your 9400 Combine displays a code other than
SEV1, see your John Deere dealer.

The diagnostic codes will appear as ---E on the


tachometer. If any of these codes appear, you can
continue to operate the combine, but write the code on a
piece of paper and call your John Deere dealer at your
earliest convenience. However, certain codes may
appear which indicate that the combine engine might die
or may not start.

After making a written note of the code, press the


desired speed symbol to return the tachometer to normal
operation. The diagnostic code will not appear again until
the engine is turned off, restarted and the problem
occurs again.

Every 50 hours of engine operation, the characters SEV

HARVESTRAK (GENERAL INFORMATION)

The HARVESTRAK Combine Monitor checks grain loss


by measuring a representative sample of losses over the
cleaning shoe and/or straw walkers. It provides a visual

-UN-14MAR89
indication of separator loss. A change in loss rate is
indicated by the control panel meter.

The solid state HARVESTRAK continuously monitors


combine performance to enable the operator to use

maximum combine capacity. When the operator has
adjusted his combine and header to an acceptable loss
level, the monitor can then be set to this level indicating
whether to increase or decrease ground speed.

The HARVESTRAK monitor can also be used to detect


plugged or closed straw walkers, sieves and chaffers.

adjusting knob (C) to position meter needle (D) in center
of green zone. An increase or decrease in separator loss
will be indicated by the change in needle position.

5. If the needle moves to “-”, combine is not operating at


maximum productivity. Increase ground speed slightly to

-UN-21AUG91
bring meter needle into green zone.

6. If the needle moves to “+”, combine is either


incorrectly adjusted for an acceptable loss level or is
moving too fast a ground speed. Make combine and/or

header adjustments as necessary or reduce ground
speed to bring meter needle into green zone.

7. After reaching an acceptable combine performance


level, set monitor as described in step 4. Remember, an
incorrectly adjusted combine, traveling at a slow ground
speed, can make meter needle indicate an acceptable
loss rate (green zone). By correctly adjusting combine

HEADER FLOTATION GAUGE

Lower header to 150 mm (6 in.) above ground. Rotate


plastic cover (A) on gauge so right-hand pointer (B) on
cover aligns with gauge. Lower header more until

-UN-11OCT88
pressure is reduced 50 to 150 psi on gauge to determine
correct operating range for a given field condition.

For soft ground conditions, use a minimum of “down


suspension” or a very light pressure on ground. This will

H39636
give maximum header suspension with least amount of
force. Header will not move below this position or drop
down into hollows.

H01,9000HYD,I -19-24MAR97

ACCUMULATOR ADJUSTMENT

A full open accumulator valve position is generally


needed for headers that require protection when floating
on the ground.

The first valve position for headers that do not require


ground float protection is one turn open. If lift shock is
still too much, the valve is further opened in half turns to
the point that lift shock and response are satisfactory.

SERVICE TIRES SAFELY

Explosive separation of a tire and rim parts can cause


serious injury or death.

Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have the


proper equipment and experience to perform the job.

Always maintain the correct tire pressure. Do not inflate


the tires above the recommended pressure. Never weld
or heat a wheel and tire assembly. The heat can cause
an increase in air pressure resulting in a tire explosion.
Welding can structurally weaken or deform the wheel.

When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension


hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side and
NOT in front of or over the tire assembly. Use a safety
cage if available.

Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged

-UN-23AUG88
rims or missing lug bolts and nuts.

CARE AND SERVICE OF TIRES

Check tires daily for damage or noticeably low pressure.

At least every 100 hours of operation, check tire


pressure. If tires contain liquid ballast, use a special
air-water gauge and measure with valve stem at bottom.

A small puncture in a tubeless tire can be temporarily


repaired without dismounting the tire, thus avoiding down
time during a busy season.

Protect tires from exposure to sunlight, petroleum


products, and chemicals.

Drive carefully. Try to avoid rocks and sharp objects.

IMPORTANT: A permanent repair should be made as


soon as possible to prevent further tire
damage.

USING LIQUID WEIGHT

N CAUTION: Installing liquid weight (ballast)


requires special equipment and training. Have
the job done by your John Deere dealer or a

-UN-11OCT88
tire service store.

IMPORTANT: Cover rim completely with solution to


avoid corrosion, but NEVER fill any tire
more than 90 per cent full. More

H39183
solution would leave too little air space
to absorb shocks. Damage to tire could
occur.

A solution of water and calcium chloride provides safe,


economical ballast. Used properly, it will not damage
tires, tubes or rims.

Use calcium chloride to prevent water from freezing. A


mixture of 1.6 kg (3-1/2 lb.) of calcium chloride per 0.4
kg/L (1 gal.) will not freeze solid above -45˚C (-50˚F).

NOTE: Use of alcohol as liquid ballast is not


recommended. Calcium chloride solution is
heavier and more economical.

Fill tubeless tires at least to valve level (minimum 75 per


cent full). Less solution would expose part of rim,
possibly causing corrosion. Tube-type tires may be filled
to any level below 90 per cent.

The proper adjustment of tracks is important when


operating under heavy mud conditions. If tracks are
adjusted properly for operation on hard ground, they may
be too tight in muddy or underwater sections of the field.

Maintain 38 mm (1-1/2 in.) slack in track measured at a

Loosen power steering hose clamps (F) to adjust hoses.


Extra hose must be stored in axle frame. Tighten clamps
after moving hoses.

If combine is equipped with 4-wheel drive, loosen hose


clamp (G) and hose tie strap (H). Pull enough hose

-UN-11OCT88
through clamp to be able to reposition axle. Tighten
clamp and tie strap after moving axle.

Refer to the chart and position axle to correct width. Tie


rod holes will go in or out the same amount of holes and

H39192
align correctly.

A drift may be needed to align axle holes and start


upper bolts (C). Place bolts (B), (C), (D) and (E) back in
correct holes.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (GENERAL


INFORMATION)

Air is drawn into the cab through holes (A). This air
flows down air duct (B) and into the pressurizer fan (C).
The air is then pushed through the pre-cleaner (D)
where the majority of dirt and a small amount of air is
discharged out through the cab floor. Be certain this
opening is open.

This cleaned air then passes through fresh air filter (E)
into the evaporator compartment. The air is now mixed
with air from inside the cab, being drawn into the
evaporator compartment through the recirculating filter
(F) . It then passes through the evaporator and heater
core.

Treated air (heated or cooled) is now drawn into the


recirculator blower (G) and discharged into the cab
through ducts. (H).
