The John Deere 740FD Platform Header is a flex-draper combine header designed for grain and legume harvesting. John Deere manufactures a comprehensive range of agricultural machinery spanning tractors, combines, and harvesting equipment, serving farmers and contractors across the grain production industry.
This 2020 model header measures 40 feet in working width and incorporates a flex-draper cutting mechanism, which allows the cutting platform to conform to uneven ground while the draper conveyor system feeds cut crop material toward the combine's feederhouse. The unit is equipped with a flip-over reel mechanism that can be inverted to suit different crop types and conditions, and features a poly-tine pickup reel for efficient material gathering. A dual knife drive system powers the cutting head, providing independent control and reliability during operation.
Additional functional features include transport capability for field-to-field movement, and header height sensing in rigid mode, which maintains optimal cutting height automatically when the header is locked in a fixed position rather than operating in flex mode. This configuration supports both flexibility in variable terrain and precision in uniform fields.
The machine is located in Alberta, Canada, and is offered in used condition at $84,774.
