New holland CH combine

Thankfully though.....a significant number of parts or at least "mechanisms" seem to be similar throughout both across the "current" ranges (CX/CR) and their historic equivalents.

I took a look at the latest rotaries recently and was surprised how little (other than the obvious rotors etc!) to our CX8060 which is several models back, and the CX820 we had before that which would have been 20 years old now. The parts department would stock a significant number of parts that would be completely common across all of those machines, and thus still current. Well.....they (and even NH!) stocked everything apart from the part that I needed!!! 😂
There used to be a Ford/NH dealer in Harleston, Norfolk (on the Suffolk border) called E. H. Knight & Son, that whenever you asked them for something would say “We can get it for you!”

It got so bad that they started to say it before, you’d even asked them for the part you wanted!

Yes, I do.
However, I’d seriously doubt NH would drop the CH combines as they are so popular in South America.
Also, they are actually so similar to the CX 5&6 series sharing so many parts, that I really couldn’t see any parts issue.
I know of a modernish combine parked up, ok not yellow but built in the America's waiting for a relatively simple part not available in Europe.

NH do have their Lateralle hillside models on the CX 5&6 ranges.
There has been talk of it being available on CH. It would be very easy to incorporate on a CH.

But they also have their true Self Levelling Sieves (and grain pan) system on the lager CX ad CR’s which no other manufacturer, especially JD has anything even close to and is a huge disadvantage on the JD’s X range.
It is without doubt, better than NH’s Smart sieve system fitted to the CH and CX5&6 series, being similar to the Claas 3D system.

As regards anything coloured Black, just remember that it is MF and IMO, anything that organisation ever had with regards any influence on Combines, needs avoiding like the plague!
Just ask Mike Mitchell in Canada for his opinions on them!

I have to say that the Claas Trion looks to me like a really good Combine. But one hell of a price!

Mikes an idiot. Ask the guy that bought one of mikes his thoughts. Complete different story

They blocked badly, bent the rotor Concaves because the metal was too weak and one gave up went to the fires of Hell.
No, Mike isn’t an idiot. The only thing he didn’t realise is that it was NH that came up with twin rotor tech, not JD.
He’s never tried NH, because their dealer is too far away. But acknowledges those that have them, talk highly of them.

Indeed he is. I’ve watched the same videos you have.

A fella on another forum bought one of his old ones. Ran it for a year loved it so much he traded it for an ideal 10 to run alongside his new Hollands

Raves about the ideal.

Easier to whinge on YouTube and get Deere to do a good deal than finding solutions.

He’s had enough trouble with his Deere dealer on some issue but that doesn’t get put on youtube
