John Deere 7722-HILLSIDE Combine Parts
The John Deere 7722 HILLSIDE combine, produced in the late 1970s and early 1980s, was a popular choice for farmers working on sloped terrain. This combine was powered by a John Deere diesel engine producing around 155 horsepower and offered header widths up to 20 feet. Its conventional threshing system made it a reliable machine for harvesting wheat, soybeans, and other grains on uneven fields.
The John Deere 7722 HILLSIDE combine was manufactured from 1978 to 1982 and designed specifically for harvesting on sloping ground, offering superior performance compared to standard combines on hillsides. Powering the 7722 was a John Deere 466 cu in (7.6 L) 6-cylinder diesel engine rated at approximately 155 horsepower. The combine utilized a conventional threshing system featuring a 41-inch wide cylinder. The grain tank capacity was approximately 105 bushels, and the unloading auger could empty the tank at a rate of around 35 bushels per minute. Available header widths ranged from 13 to 20 feet, accommodating various crop and field sizes. The 7722 typically offered a straw chopper for residue management. The cab provided basic operator comfort and controls. It was particularly well-suited for harvesting wheat, soybeans, and other small grains on hillside farms where maintaining a level threshing table was crucial for minimizing grain loss.

Maintenance Tips
- Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust concave clearance based on crop type and condition to optimize threshing performance and minimize grain damage.
- Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect and maintain proper tension on all belts and chains to prevent slippage, wear, and potential breakdowns, especially on the drive systems.
- Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean sieves and chaffers frequently to ensure proper airflow and prevent grain loss over the back. Pay close attention when harvesting different crop types.
- Bearing Greasing: Regularly grease all bearings to prevent premature wear and failure, which can lead to costly downtime during harvest season.
