There's an R62 on Tractor House, 1994, Cummings, 2450 separator hours, 2wd, includes 6/30 corn head and grain head. It's in College Corner, Ohio, asking $28,000. That's the most reasonable one I've seen.

6 row isn't big enough if yield isn't very good. It would be hard to keep the machine full. Rotors work off capacity, if they dont run full it can come out the back. Story of a local bottom farmer back when a N5 still new was running in 200 bu corn at 5 plus mph with a 6 row. |

We're on our second r-62 the first one caught fire in the fall of 2013 we had it for about 3 years it was a 2000. Now we have a 2001 we put 450hrs on it last year with minimal trouble. We run a 6-30 head and end up doing 7mph at times

I would not fear the Deutz. If you keep the fins clean and the engine full of oil, they are a long life unit. With care, they are a 10,000 hour engine.
I have never ran a R62 with a Cummins, but if the 8.3L in it is set anywhere similar to the 8.3L in a 2188 IH, I would go Deutz. Those poor 8.3Ls are dogs. :) As far as a swap, its possible, but very difficult. hydraulics need re-plumbed, etc. quite difficult to go from a air cooled engine bay layout to a liquid cooled unit. And for the guys who want a little more capacity out of the L series, take a look at Precision Farm Parts out of North Dakota. Supposedly a PFP cylinder equipped L2 or L3 will run with a 9600. www.pfparts.com As far as the breaks: 86 first year, R5,6,7. Essentially a large frame R series combine with leftover N series powerplants. 87 R50 and IIRC R40 launch. R5 dropped, R6 and R7 turn into R60 and R70, now with Deutz power. 89.5 R60 R70 switch to P3 processor. Hugger cornheads launch, hydraulic system changes to on board reel drive, interior updates to white interior with upgraded hydro stick. 91, decals change to Orange, signifying Agco ownership 92, 2 series launches, major chassis and drive re-design, new cab 93 or 94, Cummins becomes optional, Deutz still standard 96, long shoe, Deutz dropped 98, body painted for uniform look There are a ton of subtle changes over the years on the 2 series, but I have not been exposed to those yet, the newest rig is a tacky 91 R60 that I hope to get in the corn this fall alongside dads R7. |

Gleaner: the properly engineered and built combine.
If you need parts for your Gleaner, we are parting out A's through L2's, so we may be able to help. |
