The combine manufacturer generally keeps corresponding kits readily available for dealers. Subject to the design of the corn header and the carrying capacity of different combines, the steering axle may require the fitting of additional weights and the rear tires be filled with ballast.
BOLT TORQUE Important: Over-tightening hardware can cause just as much damage as under-tightening. Tightening hardware beyond the recommended range can reduce its shock load capacity. All hardware on the 5000 Devastator is either Grade 5 or Grade 8, unless otherwise noted. Grade 5 cap screws are marked with three radial lines on the head.
