Ford New Holland 995 Combine Parts
995 parts and accessories
The Ford New Holland 995 combine, produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was a popular choice for farmers seeking a reliable and efficient grain harvesting solution. Equipped with engines in the 150-170 HP range and offering header widths up to 20 feet, the 995 delivered solid performance. Its conventional separator design and user-friendly operation made it a workhorse in many fields.
The Ford New Holland 995 was a staple in the Ford New Holland combine lineup during its production run from approximately 1978 to the early 1980s. Powering this combine was a Ford diesel engine, delivering approximately 150-170 horsepower with a displacement around 401 cubic inches. The 995 featured a conventional cylinder separator system, using a rasp bar cylinder and concave to thresh the grain. Grain tank capacity was around 150 bushels, with an unloading auger capable of emptying the tank at a rate of roughly 40-50 bushels per minute. Available header widths ranged from 13 feet to 20 feet, allowing for versatile harvesting across different field sizes. While it didn't have the advanced chopper/spreader options of later models, basic straw spreading was available. Cab features included a comfortable seat and basic controls for ease of operation. The 995 excelled at harvesting wheat, soybeans, and corn, providing a balance of simplicity and performance for its time.

Maintenance Tips
- Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust the concave clearance to optimize threshing performance and minimize grain damage. Refer to the operator's manual for specific settings based on the crop.
- Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect all belts and chains for wear and proper tension. Loose or worn belts/chains can lead to slippage and reduced efficiency.
- Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffer regularly to prevent buildup of debris. This ensures proper grain separation and reduces grain loss.
- Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings according to the lubrication schedule to prevent premature wear and failure. Proper lubrication is crucial for the longevity of combine components.
