Why are they not on every Combine ( pre cleaner )
On our deere combine in beans we are taking out the engine air filters twice a day & blowing out
It just seems to make sense to have a precleaner on every combine , I dont get it ??
Because most combines built since 1980 have aspirators that pull the biggest part of the dust, dirt, and debris out of the intake tract before it makes it through the filter. Some ran by exhaust, others through a fan or pump drawing vacuum on the venturi system mounted before the air filters.
If a Gleaner combine is plugging filters daily, we start looking at the aspirator system once a customer actually mentions it to us. It's weird, they run a combine for 10 years and don't have to blow the filters out daily, but then all of a sudden they start blowing them out every day or two, and they don't think to mention it for a month or a year...really weird.
