This vid from the Palouse Hills of Washington state is pretty cool. With a team of horses like that, is the teamster controlling the whole herd or just a couple lead horses? What is the guy with the steering wheel controlling ? I assume to level the separator, a guy would do that manually ?
The guy with the “steering wheel” is controlling header height.
There’s a lever to control the clutches to level the separator, you can see the guy operating that lever at the 3:35 mark in the video. Automatic leveler control was invented in the 40’s, and could be retrofitted to the old pull type combines.
