Thats a strange looking header on the combine.? ??? ???

Its a shelbourne stripper header.  It strips rice right off of the stalk. they are also used for wheat.  Of course a regular grain wheel can be used.

As u can see the mud on the tires, the cutting conditions were kinda swampy.

This is a 4640 sitting next to an 8820 combine.  for some strange reason there is a yellow top on the soundguard.

dphinton is sound guard the exhaust by any chance,if so they have probally coverd it incase there was rain overnite ,i know some people do over here ,mainly due to the fact that if it pi***s down and a fair bit gets down the exhaust the water finds it's way into the block and sits on the pistons,causes no end of problems starting it and sounds bad for ages,lots of blue smoke ect,thats why they generally have a little flap on the ends of the tailpipe
