As Rick said, stay away from the older models like the 1915 and 2115.

In 1995 NH came out with the FX25 and FX45. Then in 1999 they went to the FX28, FX48, and FX58. Then in 2003 they went to the FX40, FX50 and FX60. Now they have the FR series which is completely new.

For a 4 row head, I would look at the FX25 and FX28. For a six row head I would go with the FX45, FX48 or the FX40.

My FX25 has the kernel processor. I take it out for haylage and put it back in for corn silage. It takes about 2 hours to do the switch. Some guys leave the processor in for haylage, but rocks can cause a lot of wear on the rolls (if you have rocks).

Here is a link to tractorhouse that has all the models of NH choppers:
