Tennessee | For the money you can buy a gleaner a little newer with a lot less hours. IMHO there is a better selection of well maintained Gleaners. You don't have to sift through the Delta junk that's been jockeyed out of Sikeston.
We switched from a 1640 to a R62 last Fall. I agree that you would have to be a blind man to say a Case is a simpler machine. The Gleaner is a hog in corn. The guy who said an R62 is about the same size as a 1680 probably hasn't seen a R62 with a CDF rotor. All I can say to the red boys is get out of the way. You'll also find that the more aggravating things on the Case like the shaker system are built much heavier on the Gleaner. I do seem to have slightly more bearing issues with the Gleaner. Right now I never have plans to own a red one again. Running the R62 has really converted me from a red man to silver. I'd go with the R72 if I were you. Give em something to talk about.
No need to change concaves. You might need to add filler plates depending on conditions.
