Subject: Re: Are Honeybee headers any good?



East Saskatchewan
We had 2 different 36' honey bees and hated both of them. 1 on an 8010 the other 1 came with a 580r when we traded combines. Drapers had to be as tight as possible to keep moving, knife would plug lots but was a single drive, would wrap at the adapter when it got tough, had a horrible problem with flipping crop once in a while and then feeding a pile in and plugging the adapter or feeder house, feeder drum hangers would destroy themselves and had to rebuild all the hardware on them. When it did plug up we would have to drop it off the combine 9 times out of 10 to unplug the adapter or feedchain. Got a 40' Macdon now and can't believe how much smoother, quieter and trouble free it was, 0 worries all harvest. Sorry, not what you want to hear but that was our experience, will never have another HB.
