Case IH 3020 Flexible Auger

Frame

• Top frame beam is an impressive 6” X 6” in size.
• The entire frame construction is fully welded, with welded-in back sheets.
• The auger floor is 4mm thick and fully welded.
• Frame is designed to handle the toughest harvest conditions.

Header Drive

• PTO shaft(s) transfer shaft driven power to both the auger and knife drive(s).
• Knife drive(s) are then driven with a heavy duty belt.
• Auger is driven with a heavy #80 chain.

Dividers

• Before the crop engages the reel or cutterbar, it must first be divided by the header.
• The 3020 header incorporates poly crop dividers that have a simple but very effective design.
• The dividers gently present the most down and tangled crop to the reel and cutterbar while positively following ground terrain.

Divider Types

• All 3020 headers are standard equipped with a medium length crop divider that is recommended for most crop conditions.
• In tough conditions, such as tall and viney crops, an optional long crop divider is available.
• Optional rod crop dividers are avialable.

Knife: Achieve Excellent Cut Quality

Reel Finger Timing

• The guard and knife, along with the rest of the cutterbar, ensure that down and tangled crop is picked up and properly cut
• The 3020 header comes standard with a 3-inch fine cut knife and guard
• The 3 inch knife provides excellent cut quality while promote high cutting speeds

Knife Drive

• Standard on all headers is a single heavy-duty high capacity wobble box knife drive
• The knife drive is belt driven from the left side of the head
• The 30 & 35 foot headers can be ordered with a dual knife drive
• The dual knife drive is recommended in heavy crop or when cutting across rows

Skid Shoes

• Reel positions sensors are located on both reel up/down and fore/aft
• Just as important as the cutterbar suspension are the skid shoes that support the cutterbar
• The 3020 header incorporates the same proven skid shoes used on the prior 1020 header
• The short profile allows the shoes to follow constantly changing ground conditions
• Since the pressure from the cutterbar is only spread over a small area on the skid shoes, it will prevent the header from “pushing” in soft or muddy conditions

Cutterbar: Superior TerraFlex Suspension System

TerraFlex™ Suspension System

• One of the most impressive features of the 3020 header, setting it apart from other auger heads is the TerraFlex suspension system
• Suspension design is the key to proper cutting in soft, muddy or hard field conditions
• With fewer mo​ving parts and reduced friction the cutterbar is reliable and responsive
• Provides flexible range of movement using a simple torsion block control
• Cutterbar has 3 inches up and 3 inches down of travel

Rigid Cutterbar Mode

• For cutting off the ground in crops such as wheat, the cutterbar can be locked rigid 
• Cutterbar is locked rigid​ by moving a simple locking pin on each suspension arm
• This versatility also you to have a flexible cutterbar for cutting on the ground and a rigid when cutting off

Manually Adjustable Cutterbar

• Ground pressure is controlled and maintained by a fully adjustable Case IH TerraFlex torsion block
• Located between the main frame and the support arm
• Adjusted by manual adjustment screws on the back side of the header

In-cab Cutterbar Adjustment

• Rather than having to actually stop the combine, get out, and manually adjust each bolt individually, the operator is able to chan​ge the down pressure on the cutterbar instantly from the comfort of the cab
• Adjustments are easily made from the cab while harvesting to accommodate ever-changing ground conditions

Auger: Smooth, Easy Feeding

Auger

• To promote grain quality and smooth, consistent crop feeding, the 3020 header uses a large 26-inch diameter auger
• Auger features 5-inch deep flighting to gently convey the crop from the cutterbar to the feeder

Auger Floor

• All 3020 Heads include as standard equipment a stainless steel auger floor for smooth, easy feeding
• The transition from the cutterbar to the auger floor provides an easy flow of crop over the front floor dam into the auger trough

Auger Adjustment

• The 3020 header promotes crop and header adaptability with a fully adjustable auger
• To fit the customer’s harvest needs, the auger can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally

Pick-up Reel

Six Bat Reel

• The Case IH 3020 six bat reel positively engages the crop, and then gently lifts the crop over the cutterbar to the auger
• Reel design and gentle crop engagement is imperative to ensure proper feeding and cutting
• The reel design promotes increased grain savings and grain quality with gentle crop handling​

Reel Options

• There are two tine options available for the 3020 header
• Plastic reel tines are recommended for most crop types and conditions
• For more demanding conditions, such as rice and tough down crop, steel tines are available

Reel Position Sensors

• Reel positions sensors are located on both reel up/down and fore/aft
• When a new header height is set the reel will be programmed to the set height as well
• Allows for a short bean and a tall bean setting for the reel
• Proper reel position increases grain savings, combine productivity and reduces operator fatigue

Reel Finger Timing

• The reel finger timing is adjustable on all 3020 headers
• Timing is adjustable with a simple lever and wrench
• This provides the customer the ability to tailor reel feeding based on crop types and conditions
