Improved Replacement Part For Failed Rod On The Actuator Used In Deere
Linda & Mark Petty, Blackstock, Ont.: "In Vol. 30, No. 1, FARM SHOW featured our low-cost improved replacement part for the failed rod on the actuator used in Deere combines to adjust the concave. Since then, we have heard from farmers about another problem part. Farmers tell us the Warner Electric Linear Actuator for straw choppers on Deere rotary combines is a weak part that often fails. They were looking for a better replacement, rather than just putting in the identical replacement from Deere.
"We took apart a failed actuator and developed a new screw, nut and rod which exceed the strength and capacity of the original product for about 1/3 the replacement cost. The rod is stainless steel like the original but the wall thickness of rod is increased to improve strength. A bronze nut is securely attached to the rod. The replacement assembly for Deere Part #AH20992 can be purchased separately from the screw for $349 plus S&H. The screw sells for $129.
