About this machine
A John Deere 608C Row Crop Header is a specialized harvesting attachment designed for corn and row crop collection. Row crop headers are mounted on combine harvesters to cut and gather standing crops in multiple rows simultaneously. John Deere is a globally recognized manufacturer of agricultural machinery, serving grain and row crop producers with harvesting, tillage, and mechanization equipment across North America and beyond.
This 2012 model is configured as an eight-row header with 30-inch row spacing, suitable for standard corn and soybean operations. The unit features a non-stalkmaster design paired with contourmaster functionality, which allows the header to follow ground contours for improved harvesting efficiency and reduced crop loss on uneven terrain. Poly dividers separate each row to maintain clean cutting and feeding into the combine's feederhouse.
The cutting mechanism employs knife rolls with an oil bath chain drive system, a robust design that provides reliable operation and simplified maintenance. The header is equipped with hydraulically adjustable deck plates, allowing operators to fine-tune cutting height and material flow from the field. Contour sensors enable automatic tracking of ground profile, while row sense feelers assist in precise row following to minimize skipped plants and crop waste.
Power delivery is via PTO drive shafts connected to a single-point hookup, streamlining attachment and detachment to compatible combines. Safety and visibility are enhanced by stubble lights and extremity warning lights, which improve operator awareness during dawn, dusk, and low-light harvest conditions.
The machine is described as field ready and is located in Ontario, Canada. The asking price is $33,845.
