John Deere S790 Combine Parts
S790 parts and accessories
The John Deere S790 combine, manufactured from 2018 onwards, delivers exceptional harvesting performance with its powerful engine producing over 500 HP. Available with a range of header widths to suit various field sizes and crop types, the S790 utilizes a high-capacity rotary separator, known for its high throughput. This model became a favorite among farmers due to its advanced technology, increased productivity, and reduced grain loss.
The John Deere S790 combine harvester, introduced in 2018, quickly became a flagship model in the John Deere S-Series lineup. Powered by a John Deere PowerTech 13.5L engine producing approximately 543 peak horsepower, this combine offers substantial power for demanding harvesting conditions. Its X9-like feeder house contributes to optimal crop feeding. The heart of the S790 is its single rotor separator, designed to gently thresh and separate grain from the MOG (material other than grain), minimizing grain damage. The grain tank boasts a capacity of 400 bushels, and the unloading auger can discharge grain at a rate of up to 4.8 bushels per second (288 bu/min), enabling quick unloading and reduced downtime. Available header widths range from narrow row crop heads to wide draper heads up to 45 feet. The S790 features advanced residue management with fine cut chopper and adjustable spreader options. Its spacious and technologically advanced cab provides operators with enhanced comfort, visibility, and control through the CommandARM console and GreenStar display. The S790 excels in harvesting a variety of crops, including corn, soybeans, wheat, and other small grains.

Maintenance Tips
- Concave Adjustment: Regularly inspect and adjust concave clearance based on crop type and moisture content to optimize threshing efficiency and minimize grain damage.
- Belt and Chain Tension: Check and maintain proper tension on all belts and chains. Loose belts and chains can cause slippage, leading to reduced performance and premature wear.
- Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean sieves and chaffers frequently to prevent buildup of debris, ensuring proper airflow and efficient grain separation. Pay special attention when transitioning between crops.
- Bearing Greasing: Follow the recommended greasing schedule for all bearings. Proper lubrication extends bearing life and prevents costly downtime.
