Ford New Holland CX860 Combine Parts

The Ford New Holland CX860 combine represented a significant step forward in harvesting technology when it was introduced in the early 2000s (approx 2002). Production continued for several years, with the model gaining a reputation for dependability and capacity. Powering the CX860 was typically an IVECO engine, delivering between 350-370 horsepower with a displacement around 8.3 liters. The combine featured a rotary separation system, with a single rotor and large cleaning area, increasing efficiency in high-yielding crops. The grain tank held approximately 300 bushels, and the unloading auger could discharge grain at a rate of roughly 3.3 bushels per second (200 bu/min). The CX860 was compatible with a range of header widths, often up to 36 feet, allowing for efficient harvesting across diverse field conditions. Chopper and spreader options were available to manage crop residue effectively. The cab offered enhanced operator comfort with improved visibility and ergonomic controls. It excels in harvesting a variety of grains including wheat, corn, and soybeans, especially suitable for large acreage operations.
