NE OH | John Deere 9400 combine, standard length feeder house
I've changed rasp bars laying on the feeder house and rebuild the feeder house top shaft/sprockets from below with it still attached. Well, I don't think the concave is going to be coming out with the feeder house on the machine.
Searching here yields good ideas and other things to inspect. Most make it sound simple. Probably is, but we here like to complicate most things. My concern is the weight of the feeder house. I have no clue what it weighs.
Do you folks think a Bobcat 763(1500#rated) with forks would be ideal to pull it off(seems like the weight would be way out front for it). Or just use the corn head as an anchor? Gravel storage, so my engine hoist is not going to work.
Also, the book says leave the hydraulic hoses attached and to just pull them through. Is this the best or just cap them and get them out of the way?
Anything else you could add would be appreciated.
