The ultimate in chaff spreading

The standard chaff spreader on the Gleaner Super Series is an integral part of the combine and uses the high volume of air passing below the accelerator rolls to blow chaff out the back of the combine. It features an adjustable tailboard and fins to help spread shoe material into a wider swath as it leaves the machine. There is no stripping of material and no mechanical drives in the process.

The optional hydraulic chaff spreader on all Super Series combines delivers the ultimate in chaff spreading and when used with the hydraulic straw spreader and redesigned spreader curtain provides an even wider spread of residue for tillage, planting and chemical applications.

Straw, corn stalks and stems exit the rotor discharge where non-grain material is handled by either an impeller or chopper. To bale the straw or stover, simply remove the standard hydraulic spreader and drop the residue into a clean, compact windrow. The newly designed processor delivers a higher-quality straw sample for baling.
