In this segment of the video, the operator is explaining the controls of a combine harvester. They demonstrate how to use the joystick for forward and reverse movements, adjust the transmission settings for different speeds, control the header reel, and engage the emergency stop. The operator also discusses the challenges faced during a wheat harvest, such as low yield due to late drilling, wet conditions, black grass, and lack of sunshine. Additionally, they show how to raise the bin lids and navigate through tight spaces on the farm while cutting wheat.
00:06:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses moving trailers and the header to farm two either this afternoon or evening and plans to bring the combine in the morning. They also explain the functions of the rear and front PTO in the tractor, the header calibration process, and adjusting settings such as drum speed, concave set level, wind speed, top sieve, and bottom sieve. The speaker demonstrates dropping the header to its preset height using number two and adjusts using a knob. They also mention setting the combine to row up straw and using the hill master to keep the combine level.
00:09:00
In this part of the video, the speaker explains how the straw walkers on the combine work to level it hydraulically. They discuss details such as traveling speed, engine revs, losses measurement for straw walkers, sieve losses, and returns. The speaker adjusts the sensitivity for losses, sets stubble height, and demonstrates how to create an AB line for guidance. Other topics covered include yield monitoring, yield and moisture levels, and the need to dry wheat due to high moisture content.
00:12:00
In this part of the video, the speaker discusses their plans for future content, including filming grain cutting and activities at the grain stores. They mention using technology like auto steer to assist in field mapping and demonstrate how it works on their equipment. The speaker checks the quality of the straw being combined and provides insights into the harvesting process, such as the amount of grain being collected. Overall, this segment provides a glimpse into the speaker’s farming activities and the technology used in the field.
00:15:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker discusses monitoring the combine machine’s performance by checking grain quality and cleanliness. They explain the process of adjusting settings such as concave and drum speed based on the straw condition and grain tank level. The speaker also demonstrates unloading grain into a trailer using the joystick controls as a tractor drives alongside at a slow speed to receive the grain.
00:18:00
In this part of the video, the speaker demonstrates emptying the grain tank of a combine harvester. They press a yellow button to start the process and stop it once the tank is empty, mentioning the tank holds around eleven thousand to eleven thousand five hundred liters of grain. They discuss finishing the field, improved straw thrust due to decreased moisture, and unloading grain into a trailer. Additionally, a passenger, Oscar, joins for a ride in the combine on his 13th birthday, revealing it is his first time experiencing this.
00:21:00
In this segment of the video, the speaker talks about finishing work on the field and planning to service the combine in the evening. The combine will be moved in the morning with tractors and trailers to farm two. The decision on whether to plant winter wheat or spring oats will depend on the moisture levels in the crops. They have finished harvesting 32 hectares of winter wheat in farm one and plan to move to farm two with 120 hectares of winter wheat. The speaker concludes by thanking the viewers and hinting at the next video.
