Looking for some info on figuring out what exact model I have. I just just got it this morning, it had been sitting in a shed. They think it’s a 190 and thought they had it on a D-17. I haven’t seen much info on telling the difference in a 150, 170, and the 190. Thanks for any info!

| I'm not much help. But one thing I do know is that this is NOT a corn picker for a Model WC. I was very familiar with those and yours is definitely much newer than those. Great find. Good luck! |

| Comparing to pictures in Norm's book, I'm going to say it is a model 190. Last one produced. Guessing they are hard to find. |

| Thanks, yeah I’ve been looking for one for a long time. This one ended up being 20 miles from home and I’ve drove by it multiple times. Makes you wonder how much other stuff is close that you can’t see from the road. |

| They are a great picker! I had a model 150 on a WD45 for awhile, only problem was - 1st gear was too much ground speed in real good corn! |

I have a 190 and from what I see that is what you have. Mine does a nice job but you need wide rows 42" is what the picker is I believe. Also hold the population down as it can not handle today corn volume. ------------- 190XT - D17 - D14 - WD45 w/loader - WD - (2)B110 - 616H - 610 - B-208 - WD with 190 Mounted Corn Picker - All Crop 60 |

| Me and my brothers try to save anything orange we can, sometimes other colors as well. Our neighbor is a big JI Case guy and has several mounted and pull type pickers. He brings them all over every September and we pick, chop and plow a 3 acre patch. It’s a good time seeing them all go through the field. |
