  Moistener System and Components

The entire moistener system serves two functions: to keep the spindles clean and slick for efficient doffing. There is no other system on the machine more overlooked than the moistener system. Wrapped spindles and chunked doffers are often blamed on the doffers themselves, when in fact it was due to an improperly maintained moistener system.

 

John Deere Moistener Pads

·         John Deere patented “X” pattern design ensures proper solution distribution on spindles, allows pad to be rotated 90 degrees, and provides maximum efficiency in all conditions

·         Precision manufactured with clean holes and full, thick fins

·         Optimum lip design provides easy installation and excellent retention

  Round Module Wrap (RMW)

Tama RMW cotton wrap was developed to complement the John Deere 7760, CP690 and CS690 cotton harvesters. Tama RMW stands up to extreme temperatures and operational demands during the wrapping process to seal and protect cotton modules.


 

Modules are wrapped three times within the onboard module builder, ensuring cotton fiber and seed protection. Each portion of wrap contains two segments of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) film, a non-tacky layer, followed by two tacky layers which keeps the round modules in a uniform shape, as well as safe from dust and rain.

 

The patented Z-Lock system ensures the tapered end of the wrap is secure in high winds and rain.


 

  Performance Enhancements and Attachments

John Deere offers numerous enhancements to increase productivity on your cotton picker. Check out some of the attachments below.

 

1.   Scrapping Plates (BN272408 or BN272418)

These plates boost harvest efficiency by pushing cotton farther into the spindle-picking zone.


 

2.   Vine Cutters (BN272178)

Vine cutters help slice through vines and weeds, preventing them from plugging the row-unit.


 

3.   Stalklifter Rods (BN272534)

Stalklifter rods allow you to harvest low-hanging bolls more easily by improving the row-unit’s lifting action.


 

4.   Light Bar (BN272692)

Get increased visibility for nighttime operation. Add four additional forward-facing lights and two additional rearview mirrors.


 

5.   Camera Observation System (BN400693 or BKK10143)

Keep an eye on machine functions from the operator’s station, including placing the camera in the module builder and back of the machine. Includes two cameras and a monitor.


 

6.   Harvest Doc™ Cotton (BN272691 or BKK10188)

This software program lets you generate detailed, accurate yield maps to help you make better, more informed management decisions using the GreenStar™ system. Data collected includes: total acres harvested, average yield, harvest hours, load weight, and much more. Includes Harvest Doc™ yield sensors, brackets, harness, and hardware.


 

7.   Mud Scrapers (KK24400, KK34399, N380682, N380870)

Mud scrapers may be installed to help clean drive tires. Order through parts.


 

8.   Spring Tension Feeder Belt Kit (AKK21021)

Proper adjustment of the cotton feeder belt is critical for performance and reliability of the round module cotton harvester. If the feeder belt tension is set too loose, the belt can slip. If it is set too tight, damage to the lace and/or belt can occur. The spring tension feeder belt kit makes it easier to properly set the feeder belt tension during machine operation.


 

9.   Gate Latch Wear Plate Kit (AKK21134)

On 7760 and CP690 cotton pickers prior to MY16, the gate latch hook end can wear to a point where the gate will not latch or will unlatch during module formation. The gate latch wear plate provides heat-treated hardened plates and mounting plate which welds over the hook. These plates provide replaceable wear surfaces which provide longer wear at the critical latch point.


 

10.       Harvest Identification, Cotton PRO (BKK10642)

Harvest Identification, Cotton PRO is the next generation of round module tracking. Features include the documentation of module moisture, weight, editable comments, and other features listed below. Harvest Identification, Cotton PRO links to John Deere Operations Center Field Analyzer tool to visually display module created locations on the yield map, along with providing individual module information


 

11.       Active RMB Belt Cleaning Brush (BKK10319)

The CP690 offers an optional active rotating belt cleaning brush that provides improved RMB belt cleaning in tougher, higher-moisture harvesting conditions.


 

12.       Lubricator Transfer Pump (BN272262)

The lubricator transfer pump allows the operator to easily fill the lube tank from ground level. Utilizing the lube tank Quik-Fill™ nozzles, the pump is able to take lubrication oil from any standard storage tank and pump it into the lube tank located on the operator’s platform. This pump provides a time-saving solution for lube tank refilling.

13.       Wrap Finger Guides (KK31823, KK31824, KK31825)

The new wrap fingers are made out of a thinner material that allows the fingers to flex back to a flat position to prevent a wrap misfeed. They are also stronger to prevent cracking and breaking in cold weather.
