Subject: Re: combine fire



Rocky Comfort, MO
My uncle bought a brand new 9760 a couple of years ago that was still on a dealers lot. He farms quite a bit of rice. They got it in the field and after ten hours it caught fire. They got it put out quick, cleaned up the machine and started back in. It caught on fire a total of five times I think he said. They had the dealer come out and found that the chaff and trash would get stuck in a particular spot towards the back of the rotor and would build up enough to cause a friction fire. They had to change something out on it that was the cause of the issue. I think it was a known problem. I don't think he has had any trouble since.
