header refinement updates (Revised 31-Aug-2012) |
 |
|
|
|
Model year 2013 John Deere S-Series Combines, 600 Series
Platforms, and headers continue to deliver innovative technology, distinctive
quality, unmatched reliability, and definitive performance. Changes and updates
have been made specifically to the model year 2013 600 Series Corn Heads and
S-Series Combines to continue to refine and improve our products and to offer
our customers the excellence and service they expect with John Deere.

Factory-installed AutoTrac™ RowSense™ option with 600C Corn
Heads |
|
The Autotrac RowSense attachment is available as a
factory-installed option for 600C Corn Heads from Harvester Works. For shipping
reasons, the row feelers will not be installed, but all the other components
including sensors, harnesses, and brackets will be installed at the factory
requiring only the row feelers to be installed in the field.

S-Series
Combines Factory-installed AutoTrac RowSense activation
for S-Series Combines The AutoTrac RowSense activation is
included as a factory-installed option. This change allows the AutoTrac RowSense
activation to be included in the SF1 or SF2 AutoTrac complete options. This
simplifies the ordering process for AutoTrac and RowSense on the S-Series
combines. With the option for AutoTrac RowSense feelers being factory-installed
with 600C Corn Heads, it has never been
easier.

StarFire™ 1 AutoTrac activation for S-Series
Combines |
|
SF1 AutoTrac
activated in-field
 |
|
|
|
The SF1 AutoTrac complete option has been added to the
AMS ordering section in the S-Series Combine Price Pages. For those customers
that desire SF1 AutoTrac accuracy for their harvesting, this change provides a
less costly alternative to the AutoTrac options. Customers that do not require
4-in. pass-to-pass accuracy such as harvesting standing crops or belt-pickup
applications will appreciate the SF1 option. The SF1 AutoTrac complete
activation is factory-installed and no additional subscription expense will be
required.

All S660-S690 Combines will have a single-turn chopper
door latch. This replaces the previous two-latch system and will increase the
ability to quickly open the chopper drive access door to change chopper speeds.

|
Thick skin rotor on all wide body machines |
|
Also new for model year 2013, all S660 and S690 Combines
will have the thick-skin TriStream™ rotor as base configuration. There will
still be the option for regular wear or extended wear and also the ability to
add dense pack elements.
