AgPhD Video: Tips To Prevent A Combine Fire.


Safe combine maintenance can go a long way to preventing combine fires.

A ground level fire extinguisher should be readily available to extinguish a combine fire.

Since a combine fire can result in a significant financial loss, owners should be constantly monitoring the machine for timely maintenance functions that can reduce the risk of a costly fire.

During periods of heavy use during harvest, take a few moments during each day to remove accumulated crop material and debris. Dry, hot and windy conditions can add to the accumulation of debris; so be diligent about daily (and/or multiple) inspections.
