We have only run older Massey's before (750 & 850 models ) My question is, since this is such a new to us upgrade. What are the goods and bads of this machine, and is there anything special we need to know or watch for? Hints and tricks of the trade? We are going to be running a 693 corn head and a 925F bean head.

Just make sure the bars are always relatively new and she eat, otherwise the green beans will growl.take the filler plates out if they are still there. And watch the double pulley rear left side chopper drive.have seen the bearing go cause a wobble and break the sheet metal lose there.it is a bit light in that area.if it has the greaseble walker bearings, grease them daily. Do not forget the two zerks for the upper feeder house and the one on the hyd drive on the left side inside lower covr gets missed a lot too Posted 10:03 (#4233401 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 You may want to look into an 8 row head since the combine has duals. A 6 row is going to be a pretty tight fit and could be a pain in down corn. Do a search and you should find a few threads about it.
Otherwise, a solid machine. The 25 ft platform is a good match for it.
Read the owner's manual through thoroughly. How many hours on the separator? Posted 10:09 (#4233411 - in reply to #4233401) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Southern MN 1800 separator hrs Posted 10:11 (#4233415 - in reply to #4233401) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Elizabethtown,KY I owned one for 6 years with the same heads that you have, when cutting beans close the concave down to 10 or less and you will find that it is a bean eating machine. As previously mentioned, keep good rasp bars and concave in it, I put chrome bars in mine the last time I did it. Posted 10:26 (#4233437 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Whenever you need new rasp bars check out Trimpe bars. Lots of positive reviews here on Ag Talk. Will improve threshing in tough stems/straw.
Posted 10:29 (#4233444 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Dallas, South Dakota Nice looking machine. Definitely well cared for. 8.1 litre engine if the water pump has never been changed I'd do that right away. They can fail and ruin the engine. I'm changing the water pump on my 9550 this winter just to be on the safe side.

The 25 ft platform is a good match for it. Read the owner's manual through thoroughly. How many hours on the separator? If an 8-row head doesn't work for your operation, there are people looking for duals for these machines. I bought a 9560 about a year ago that had duals on it. I advertised them and was able to trade the duals, axle extensions and ladder extension for a nice pair of singles and some cash.
Posted 10:34 (#4233457 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Macon, IL Nice looking combine. You are going to love the cab. I have a 9500 with same heads-love the 925. Agree with others-gonna be tight with that 6-row corn head and duals. Take the paddles off and you won't need that corn catcher.
Not sure if 10 series had aluminum walker bearings-if so don't skimp on lube-every 10 hours-no exceptions-and they will treat you fine. Also the Electric Clutch and Reverser get daily care-other than that not a lot to keep an eye on. At those hours keep an eye on clean grain elevator and unload trays-may be getting thin. Neither is a terrible job in summer or if have nice shop and time-but painful job if you had to do it in season. Contrary to what some say I have found it a really really easy machine to maintain. Only other thing I can think to say is start with settings from book-but don't be afraid to go way way out of bounds on cyliner speed in beans.
I was always making other adjustments to get it to run smooth-2 years ago buddy was riding and said crank that cylinder speed way up and tighten it down-ran a lot smoother and picked up some good speed. If cylinder bars are worn it will kill capacity.
One bad degsign area that drives me nuts is upper feederhouse. It doens't break down often-but pain to work on.
If you ever replace the upper feederhouse bearings/sprockets put the split sprockets on-can unbolt them and flip them for a whole other life without disassmbling the feederhouse again. Trying to think back-replaced 1 set of high beam bulbs with HID-best $100 I ever spent. Last thing-if you got filler plates in-take them out-unless doing high moisture corn. Edit-Can't tell if that platform is full finger-if not get it added-makes it soooo much smoother if cutting 30' beans.

Wow, you just went from the Wright Flyer to the Space shuttle in one leap!!!! Great looking machine, congrats Posted 10:47 (#4233478 - in reply to #4233464) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 W/C Illinois Watch the slip clutch for the conveyor augers. It's on the right side of the shaft that has the exposed bevel gears under the feeder house. The inner casting tends to wallow out and eat on the shaft.
Look for it above the right final drive. Should be behind a shield.
Posted 11:56 (#4233589 - in reply to #4233478) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Southern MN If I would take duals off and go with singles, how tippy or what are the chances of tipping it over on side hills? Posted 12:01 (#4233598 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 central PA really nice, I have the 6620 and would like to move up just to get the engine away from the cab, your machine looks well kept, did you buy that from a private party? Posted 12:24 (#4233637 - in reply to #4233598) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Southern MN Yes at a retirement auction. Talked to the guy, and he said every year he paid John Deere $10,000 to go through machine and heads before he started the season. He said he never stopped during the season, so hopefully it stays that way for us! Posted 12:48 (#4233678 - in reply to #4233457) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 West Union IA Looks like a nice upgrade you will like it.

1 of the best JD ever made. Edited by JDPlowboy 17:53 Posted 13:08 (#4233708 - in reply to #4233637) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 eastern south central KS Great machine; we have a 9410 that looks just as nice and we also do the winter thing at Deere. Lots of money but we hardly ever break down. Yes, as stated above grease every 10 hours on walker bearings and put a lot in. Books says something like every 100 hrs.,ha, ha.
They WILL go out if you follow that advice! I love our machine and would love to have the increased capacity of the 9510 if I could find one as nice as yours. Only thing that dissatisfies me threshing wise is ours has never been great in wheat. Seems like it's more of a corn and soybean machine Posted 13:09 (#4233709 - in reply to #4233589) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 blairsville,pa. Farmboy04 - 12:56 If I would take duals off and go with singles, how tippy or what are the chances of tipping it over on side hills? U'd be suprised, I've cut hills u have no business on with a 9500.
As long as u don't fill it to much past the back glass u can cut some nasty stuff. Posted 14:12 (#4233806 - in reply to #4233637) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 How can you spend ten grand every year on a combine? Posted 14:21 (#4233812 - in reply to #4233697) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Petersburg, Illinois I call them razorbacks. They were about 12' high and were bolted onto the walkers.
I got them from Deere back in that time. Really helped shell corn walker loss but made it miserable to crawl onto walkers if the need arose. Posted 15:28 (#4233891 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 WCIN If you don't exactly know what has been replaced. Rebuild the upper variable speed feeder house drive and replace the U-joints on the shaft running through the grain tank. Posted 15:32 (#4233899 - in reply to #4233891) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 sw corner ia.
Laboratory manual in physics answer key. The VERY FIRST thing you must do is replace the water pump. You are probably well over 2000 engine hours and they won't go much over that.

Hammerman - 14:12 How can you spend ten grand every year on a combine? The newer JD combines avg over $20K to run threw the jd shop.
Posted 19:15 (#4234341 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Central Kentucky Good machine. You will enjoy the upgrade. I run an 893 corn head and a 925 bean head. Some on here like to knock the 9510 but I find it to be a good combine.
Don't go by the numbers on the setup. Keep a note card in the arm rest and record your settings. I found the Deere numbers to be pretty far off. When you get your numbers going you will find clean samples with no loss. It is a fast enough combine. I run singles with no problems. It is not a tippy machine.
Congrats and good luck. Posted 19:49 (#4234441 - in reply to #4234341) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Land of the Horizontal Snow Ontarios West Coast Caught the upper universal joint on the shaft going through the grain tank going out today on mine, borrowed my cousins to finish up ( only 8 acres left ). I have duals and his has singles and was almost sea sick by the end, duals definitely ride better and very noticeable when the ground is frozen. Run a 8 row head and a 630 flex with head sight, very happy with both, about 1000 acres a year. Posted 20:55 (#4234625 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 West Central Wisconsin I think you'd be much happier with a 6620 Side Hill! I'd be willing to trade! Joe Posted 20:59 (#4234639 - in reply to #4234441) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 edgerton ks.
How well does it handle your 630 head. Just bought a 9550 and need to purchase a flex platform. Was thinking about a 625. Thought a 30 footer might be a bit much for that machine. Just wondering?
Posted 21:13 (#4234682 - in reply to #4234625) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Freeburg IL Check the bearings on the shoe augers under the concave. Also the wood blocks on the rear of the shoe augers. Those bearings arent super easy to change and often are loose or out.
Jd part number AH214862. 9510 has 6 of them. Posted 21:28 (#4234722 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 NW Iowa Went from a Massey 750 to a 9410 12 years ago, one of my better moves, you will enjoy running a combine now. Cab is really quiet only thing I miss is having to climb a ladder to get in instead of climbing up the stairs and the straw chopper isn't as good as a Massey but then I didn't combine beans with green stems back then as I do now.

Enjoy your new machine A wide spread kit will really help with the bean straw. It will spread the whole width of the head. Posted 08:06 (#4235288 - in reply to #4233346) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 9510's are a good combine. Have had a 9500 a long time they have there breakdowns like everything else and use to think it was hard to work on. Then i got a 2388 and the 9500 was easy to work on compared to it lol. Anyways some things to do is greese the cylinder bearing and the straw walkers! Im not sure if the 9510's had aluminum or wood blocks but my 9500 had the wood blocks and i prefered them.
You'll like the combine a lot they do a fine job and you'll think its a cadillac with the ride and cab coming from massey combines. Posted 09:59 (#4235532 - in reply to #4235288) Subject: RE: John Deere 9510 Southern MN Thanks for all the input guys.
This is a huge help. Like I said this is very new to us! I just wish we didn't have to wait a year now to use it! Jump to page: Now viewing page 1 50 messages per page Jump to forum:.
