C - Side tilt
Soils that present side tilt greater than 10 % (see gure
on the side) can cause the Combine to overturn.
Therefore, avoid working in such situations.
Warning:
Be careful with holes and swells on the soil.
4.2 - Recommendations for a good me-
chanical harvest
A good mechanical harvest begins by correct soil prepara-
tion. Below there are some important procedures that aim
to increase the crop output:
Try to level the soil up to the most possible, getting
rid of natural soil waviness.
Continuously remove stubs, stones and any other type
of obstacle there is in the area.
In case of direct planting, handle the straw in a such way
to make the surface even and prevent high rootstock
from appearing because it will mix with the furrows.
For instance: corn stalks that remain after harvest.
Be careful with the ruts left by the pivot wheels.
When crossing them, reduce the tractor speed to pre-
vent a more violent impact.
Avoid gaps along the furrows because they make the
threshing cylinder to work idle for short periods of time
and it can cause break and/or loss of grains.
A - Considerations about work capacity
Twin Master Combine work capacity depends on the soil conditions, crop characte-
ristics and operator’s skill with this type of equipment.
Operator should work at the highest speed possible, according to moisture con-
ditions, safety and product characteristics, aiming to not harm machine running
neither cause losses in the eld.
It is better to work at a lower speed, harvesting a smaller area per day than speed
up and increase loss level to above acceptable. Machine work can also be harmed,
causing unnecessary maintenance service.
