big capacity harvesting for medium-size farms<br />

No. 15-8-foot cut<br />

* Fast . . . big capacity . . . easy handling . . . economical<br />

operation—all mighty important advantages you have with<br />

the 15 and 17 combines bringing in your grain.<br />

There are years of experience behind the 15 and 17 .. .<br />

experience that has proved the practical construction of<br />

the tripod-type frame, simple chain and belt drive, vertical<br />

elevator, and rasp-bar cylinder. Tripod design in the frame<br />

provides better distribution of weight. Heavy channel<br />

beams make up the back bone of the frame. Braces and<br />

beams are welded for extra strength. True alignment results<br />

. . . extra support and stability are built into the<br />

15 and 17. Sagging just can't occur . . . means true running,<br />

easy handling. Better weight distribution reduces excessive<br />

or "dead" weight . . . your tractor has an easier job, more<br />

reserve for the tough spots.<br />
