Subject: Turbo 2 precleaner



BC, Canada
How well do the 'spinner' air filter precleaners work? Maybe spinner isnt the correct term but hopefully you know what i mean. I am hoping to add a Turbo 2 precleaner to a SP harvester and was wondering if anyone else has one installed on their equipment. If so are you happy with it? There always seems to be alot of fines in the filter when i blow it out. Not really try to extend the service intervals, more just keep it cleaner. TIA

I put one on a 1460 combine, and solved alot of headaches with early / premature filter plugging. Moved it to a tractor when I got rid of the combine. Worked much better then the factory aspirated one for me at least

It has been a while. Had one on 1486, and just hardly needed to clean the air filter. WAY better than the pipe over to the exhaust pipe.

Right now we got a few Gleaners and 1 7060 Allis with them. They are excellent, but the only time they show up here is if we snag a used one at auction, or it comes in on a piece of equipment, as I dont feel like spending the money for a new one for dad's equipment, and dad shares the same idea, so I get to blow out air filters. :)

I hate the exhaust aspirators, as none of ours seem to work, just soot the air filters. When replacing pre-cleaners, I either put on the plastic bowl type pre-cleaner, or the turbo II, no exhaust ones.

if anyone has had a non-working turbo II, maybe try blowing it out, on a used one we got, I blew it, and got a bunch of dirt out, so I wonder if that is why we got it at the auction, possibly there was some dirt built up enough to reduce effectiveness? IDK.

Was working at a dealership once when the R60 gleaners were new and guys were cleaning their air filters twice a day and we ended up mounting some turbo precleaners on top of the hood on some of them and they would go a few days after that so they made a huge difference for them

They work just fine but I would take a close look at the Donaldson Topspin as well.

got a buddy with one, it works great, but keep it out of the hail. :) got in a hail storm, now its missing a chunk.

otherwise, it does the same job while costing less.
