Ford New Holland TX65 Combine Parts

Tx65 parts and accessories

The Ford New Holland Tx65 combine, manufactured in the late 1990s and early 2000s, was a popular choice for farmers seeking a reliable and efficient harvesting solution. Typically equipped with engines producing around 220-240 HP, these combines could handle a variety of crops with available header widths ranging from 20 to 30 feet. The conventional separator system provided excellent grain quality, making it a favorite for operations prioritizing clean samples.

The Ford New Holland Tx65 was introduced as part of the Tx series, aimed at providing a modern and capable combine for mid-sized farms. Production spanned the late 1990s and early 2000s. Powering the Tx65 was typically a Ford or Iveco 6-cylinder diesel engine, delivering approximately 220-240 horsepower with a displacement around 7.5 liters. This model utilized a conventional threshing system with a large-diameter cylinder and concave for gentle grain separation. The grain tank offered a capacity of around 220-250 bushels, with an unloading auger capable of discharging grain at speeds of 2-2.5 bushels per second (120-150 bu/min). Available header widths ranged from 20 to 30 feet, suitable for various field sizes and crop conditions. Chopper and spreader options were available to manage residue effectively. The cab provided a comfortable operating environment, with features like air conditioning and adjustable seating. The Tx65 was known for its versatility in harvesting wheat, soybeans, corn, and other small grains. Its relatively simple design and robust construction made it a durable and maintainable machine.

Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust the concave clearance based on the crop being harvested to minimize grain damage and maximize threshing efficiency.
Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect all belts and chains for wear and proper tension. Loose or worn belts and chains can cause slippage, leading to reduced performance and potential damage.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffer screens regularly to remove debris and ensure proper airflow for effective grain cleaning.
Bearing Greasing: Grease all bearings according to the manufacturer's recommendations to prevent premature wear and failure. Pay special attention to bearings in high-stress areas such as the header and threshing unit.
