Mini Combine Harvester
Small combine harvesters usually refer to models with a feed rate of ≤1.0kg/s and an engine power of 30-50 horsepower, which are suitable for small-scale planting needs. According to the walking mode, they are divided into hand-held, self-propelled, and suspended types. Among them, self-propelled types have become the mainstream because of their convenient operation.
1. Compact and flexible, suitable for harvesting operations in narrow fields.
2. High harvesting efficiency, diverse crop types harvested.
3. Having a high ground clearance, it is convenient for field movement and obstacle passage.
4. Modular design is easy to disassemble and maintain.

Applications
Small combine harvesters are typically suitable for family farms, hilly and mountainous areas, and small and medium-sized farms with scattered plots, especially in areas with labor shortages, complex terrain, or limited budgets. They are also widely used in agricultural machinery cooperatives, agricultural service stations, and other scenarios. They can meet the dual needs of harvesting efficiency and operational flexibility, and are important equipment for improving the efficiency of grain harvesting for small farmers.

Using Tips
When using a small combine harvester, it is recommended to thoroughly inspect the cutting blade, threshing device, and conveying system before operation to ensure proper functioning; During the harvesting process, the driving speed and cutting platform height should be controlled to prevent blockage and missed harvesting; The moisture content of crops should be maintained between 13-18%, which is beneficial for threshing and storage; After daily homework, it is necessary to promptly clean the body of weeds, soil, and food residues to avoid scale damage; At the same time, regularly replacing lubricating oil and vulnerable parts can help extend the service life of equipment and ensure operational efficiency.
FAQ
Efficiency reference: Conventional models (15-20 horsepower) can harvest 1-2 acres per hour, about 8-16 acres a day (8 hours), which is affected by the flatness of the plot and the degree of crop lodging.
Tips to improve efficiency: Plan the harvesting route in advance to avoid repeated rolling; the harvesting efficiency is highest when the moisture content of the crop is controlled at 15%-25%.
Wear non-slip shoes during operation and do not touch the moving parts with gloves; clean up debris such as stones and branches on the ridges before harvesting to avoid damage to the machine.
Daily inspection: clean the residual straw from the cutter, lubricate the chain (use butter), check the tire/track pressure.
Quarterly maintenance: change the engine oil (15W-40 diesel oil is recommended), clean the air filter, and after the harvest season, the whole vehicle needs to be rust-free and covered with a dustproof cloth.
