Buchanan and Hall Ltd. 615 Huron Road, Stratford, Ontario 271-4793 62 THE RURAL VOICE WHAT'S NEW M -F HAS TWO NEW COMBINES IN FIELD Massey -Ferguson has introduced two new combines, the M -F 8450 and M -F 8460, for Targe farms in North America. "These two new conventional com- bines are designed to be reliable and easy to operate," says Dale Brcka, prod- uct marketing manager for combines. "They are equipped with performance features to maximize harvesting effi- ciency in hard -to -thresh crops." The combines will be available for delivery in mid -summer. The cab is engineered for operating comfort and visibility, and clean, top quality grain samples are the result of a match system of threshing and separation. The M -F 8450 has a 346 -cubic -inch diesel engine rated at 162 hp. The 669 - cubic -inch diesel engine in the M -F 8460 delivers 221 hp. Both combines feature hydrostatic drive. The operator can vary ground speeds in any one of three transmission gears — as well as start, stop, or reverse the combine without shifting. The 150 bushel (M -F 8450) and 185 bushel (M -F 8460) grain tanks feature a fast, even -filling central auger. Large diameter unloading augers empty the tank at rates of up to two bushels a second. Large, 52 -inch (M -F 8450) and 62 - inch (M -F 8460) variable speed cylin- ders provide gentle but thorough thresh- ing in all types of crop. Front and rear concave settings can be adjusted from the operator's seat to meet varying har- vesting conditions. Rigid grain heads are available in cutting widths of up to 30 feet. Flexible bottom heads are available in cutting widths up to 20 feet. Six and eight -row corn heads will be available.0
