West Tennessee | Our 9610 combine needs charging about every 1 and a years. It's really tough to get it done here because it about has to be done in the field. The dealership here doesn't have a gauge on the charge side of the system (only on the tank side). It's a bit of a guessing game to get it right and to be honest we aren't the best service customers so it's tough to get someone out. When the charge gets low the head bounces hard all the time and is pretty frustrating to run. A new accumulator is over $1,500 and no guarantee how long it will last. I did some checking last year and there were going to be some issues and costs involved with getting a tank. You can't buy the nitrogen tank here so there would be rent every year on that. In the end we figured we wouldn't save any money vs. having the dealer do it but we could handle it ourselves at our convenience. I like the looks of the charging setup and I'm sure that's about what the dealer would use. I'd like to hear back as to how this works out for you if you do decide to purchase it. Sorry I'm not any more help than that. | |
