Features
FieldGlide™ suspension drives ground following
615P suspension system
The exclusive FieldGlide suspension system features an adjustable air spring and heavy-duty hydraulic shock design to dampen movement during field operation, allowing the operator to increase harvesting speed. Once set, the air springs do not need adjustment during the season.
Feature benefit:
- Improves windrow harvesting performance
- Harvest at faster speeds
- No tools needed
Functionality
Adjustment of the air springs requires no tools and is simple compared to other belt pickup suspensions. Adjust the air springs according to instructions located on the belt pickup side sheets.
Hydraulic windscreen adjusts crop flow
615P hydraulic windscreen
The hydraulic windscreen on the 615P allows the operator to maximize productivity by controlling the crop flow in changing windrow conditions.
Feature benefit:
- Adjustments made from the cab
- Control crop flow in changing windrow conditions
Functionality
Manual tilt adjustment for windscreen
The hydraulic windscreen utilizes double-acting cylinders which react quicker in maximizing the control of the crop. The windscreen is controlled by the fore-and-aft control on the combine hydro handle. A benefit is the header backshaft speed can be controlled independently of the windscreen allowing for increased belt pickup, and auger/feederhouse chain speed for tough windrow conditions.
Dual draper belt enhances material flow
Crop transition on 615P
The 615P features a dual-belt draper to enhance material flow into the combine when harvesting windrows.
Feature benefit:
- Smooth material flow into the auger
- Increased material handling capacity
- Allows crop to fall from the pickup belts
Functionality
The transfer belts move crop under the 66-cm (26-in.) diameter auger. This provides significant material handling advantages in large/dense windrows.
4.5-m (14.8-ft) wide belt drives productivity in pickup
615P
The 615P features 4.5-m (14.8-ft) wide belts for enhanced belt tracking with reduced seed loss.
Feature benefit:
- Eliminates the need for a complicated center-support roller
- Reduces seed loss
- Improved belt tracking
Functionality
Connectors between belts improve belt-drive capacity in tough windrow conditions without the need for a center support on the drive rollers. This design eliminates roller flanges which would create a gap between belts and could result in crop losses. The heavy-duty 615P belts are designed for maximum wear life.
Belt tracking and adjustment drive uptime
615P belt tensioning
The 615P features a belt tensioning system for extended belt and roller life.
Feature benefit:
- Belts are evenly tensioned for uniformed loading
- Easy adjustment that requires minimal tools
- Minimizes seed loss
