Plus, Model Year 2019 combines come with factory-fit telematics and a one-year subscription to AFS Connect command center to monitor and manage your fleet.

Standard: Standard on every combine is the Automatic Crop Settings, which allows producers to customize and save preferred combine settings by crop on the Advanced Farming Systems (AFS) Pro 700 display.

Feedrate Control: Optional Feedrate Control to more accurately control ground speed based on crop load, engine power and ground speed limits set by the operator..

Full Automation: Optional AFS Harvest Command combine automation system proactively senses and optimizes machine performance for you.

FEEDING SYSTEM: 250 series combines have a redesigned feeder house for improved durability and reliability in demanding crop conditions. An optional feeder fore/aft face plate control enables adjustments to be made from the cab. A redesigned feeder top shaft drive coupler features a crown spline design for greatly improved durability. A simple, two-piece feeder floor design increases durability and improves crop feeding. Plus, up to 13,500 pounds in lift capacity helps handle even the largest chopping corn head on the market.

Headers- Improved and expanded header lineup provides the latest in harvesting technology. The following headers are available on the 250 series: Corn, Draper, Flex Auger, Grain and Pickup.

Feeder House- Optional feeder fore/aft face plate control enables adjustments to be made from the cab.

Optional dual, high-capacity lateral tilt.

Intermediate feeder gearbox protects the feeder with a dual wet clutch design.

Power Plus Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) combine drive provides continuous variable power, reducing complexity and maintenance.

TRANSMISSION:Shift Into the Model for You this new transmission simplifies operation so you can use first gear for harvest and second gear for roading.

Electric Shift Transmission- New 2-speed electric shift ground drive transmission for increased traction effort, with HI/LO propulsion system to toggle between Hi and Lo ranges during harvest

Reduces the need to stop and shift in field or on road.

Maximize fuel savings and decrease engine wear.

Adjustable wider speed ranges for more power for climbing hills and propulsion through challenging ground conditions.

Provides greater torque through a wider speed range without shifting due to increased displacement of pumps and motors.

Improves traction and field performance with optional differential lock that is electrically actuated and hydraulically engaged.

Closed-loop sensing ensures constant speed control like cruise control in a truck.

Maximize your harvest window with robust final drives that create greater durability and quick, seamless performance.

Pump Drives/Separator Drives (PTO)- IImproved PTO gear case design ensures pumps and drives are operating efficiently throughout the entire rpm range

Industry-exclusive CVT drive maximizes field efficiency, providing reduced complexity and maintenance.

Patented Header to Feeder Ground Speed- Automatically match header speed to ground speed with in-cab electronic variable feeder speed control.

Optimize grain savings in downed-corn conditions.

Header and feeder automatically adapt to combine speed and put more grain in your tank.

THRESHING & SEPARATING: We pioneered single rotor development back in the 1960s. Since then, refinements, enhancements and improvements have led to the pinnacle in rotor performance the AFX rotor. The AFX rotor can be set into many configurations, adapting to both crop and threshing conditions.

Transition Cone and Rotor Impellers- Patented transition cone vanes and rotor impellers sweep crop from the feeder and gently accelerate it to threshing speed

Requires no feed accelerator.

Transition cone and impeller draw in approximately 1,100 cubic feet per second through the feeder, providing increased visibility in dusty conditions.

AFX Rotor- 30-inch diameter AFX rotor design provides gentle, multiple-pass, grain-on-grain threshing along with centrifugal force separation

ST rice rotor is designed to handle tough rice conditions, while providing smoother feeding and improved operational characteristics.

ST rotor tube diameter has been reduced, with the addition of taller rasp bars allowing for more of the tough rice straw to work through the entire length of the rotor.

Modules- Four modules, each weighing 40 pounds, can be changed within minutes to meet your harvest conditions and type of crop.

Three-piece in-feed ramp allows easier accessibility for improved maintenance

Rotor Cage- Rotor cage delivers gentle, multiple-pass, grain-on-grain threshing and smoother crop flow

Concentric rotor cage provides positive crop control and is perforated to allow 360-degree maximum-crop separation.

Rotor Cage Vanes- New, optional, in-cab adjustable rotor cage vanes allow the rotors to be fine-tuned to optimize threshing and separating in varying crop conditions, and efficiently change from one crop to another

Standard feature includes a gang of cage vanes that are manually adjustable with an easy turnbuckle.

New threshing chamber door seals, which help reduce chaff and dust build-up on the combine frame.

Rotor Drive- Reliable belt-driven rotor design

Industry-exclusive Power Plus CVT drive provides shaft-driven power to the rotor.

CVT drive allows for in-cab rotor reversing and deslugging.

CLEANING SYSTEM: High-capacity combines need large high-capacity cleaning systems. Axial-Flow combines match cleaning system capacity to the size of the machine, providing superior productivity, grain sample quality and savings. The patented design of the Cross Flow cleaning system fan delivers consistently clean grain samples no matter the harvest condition. The result is exceptional grain quality, ideal for food-grade crops or crops grown by any producer who demands the most from his/her machine.

Self-leveling Cleaning System (SLS)- Optimize cleaning efficiency on flat fields or hills with self-leveling sieves up to 12 percent slope each way

Axial-Flow 250 series raises the bar with an in-cab, adjustable pre-sieve that allows the operator to make adjustments on the go to maximize grain quality.

Cross Flow Fan- After entering the fan, a vortex is created, which super charges the air flow, giving a full-balanced flow across the entire sieve.

Air enters the full width of the fan from the top not the sides resulting in superior air flow.

Tri-Sweep Tailings Processor- Using three sets of impellers, the processor gently re-threshes and elevates the tailings, returning them back to the active grain pan for final cleaning.

This results in higher machine capacity, increased harvest efficiency and improved grain quality.

Active Grain Pan- Move grain and material other than grain (MOG) to the cleaning system.

Increases efficiency by separating the grain and other material through reciprocating action before reaching the cleaning system.

RESIDUE MANAGEMENT: The Case IH residue management system is built to handle the tough residue associated with new crop genetics. This system delivers consistency across the larger header widths used on the Axial-Flow 250 series combines, helps prepare the ground for next year’s crop and can create consistent windrow formations and long straw for baling. From tillage to livestock demands, we offer the widest range of residue management features on the market.

Rotor discharge deflector- Positioned directly behind the rotor, deflects residue to a central feeding point toward the chopper.

Rotor discharge deflectors can be adjusted from in-cab or the right-hand side of the combine by a pin that can be placed into four different positions.

Improve windrow formation.

Chopper- New offering includes factory-installed X-tra Chop, a small-grains residue package for increased residue chop and sizing.

Blades are mounted in a spiral pattern, providing better chop quality.

Three separate chopper options to match your requirements.

Improved 24-element beater option for added performance and durability.

Windrow Chute- Two residue modes (spread and windrow) provide options to meet your residue requirements.

In-cab chop-to-swath option available.

Hydraulically Driven Spreader- Hydraulically driven residue spreaders are adjustable in-cab for on-the-go speed control.

Adjust spreading width manually by moving the dovetail in the center up or down.

GRAIN HANDLING: Large grain tanks, longer augers and quick-folding tool-free grain tank extensions are standard on all Axial-Flow combine models resulting in more efficient field operation.
