To assist the operator in adjusting the combine for various crops and conditions, a new TouchSet automatic combine adjustment is available on the new 60 Series STS combines. All required separator crop settings, including the all-new remote shoe adjustment, can be adjusted with the touch of a button in the cab."TouchSet hydraulics are standard olddrillpress on all STS combines. This advanced hydraulic system uses an independent control valve to enable the operator to have infinite olddrillpress variable control over the feederhouse and header raise-and-lower rates. Two control knobs under the armrest console provide convenient operation and the header can be raised manually or automatically."

In 1936 Henry F. Phillips, also once a traveling salesman, patented the cruciform head known to us all. It was first used by General Motors in the 1936 Cadillac, and within three years most screw makers produced Phillips head screws under license from the inventor.The first screwdriver the author found was in the late fifteenth-century castle manual cited above. It appears in the careful drawing of a screw-cutting lathe and was used to adjust the cutter. "Eureka!I''ve found it. The first screwdriver. No improvised gadget but a remarkably refined tool, complete with a pear-shaped wooden handle to give a good grip, and what appears to be a metal ferrule where the metal blade meets the handle....there is no doubt that a full-fledged screwdriver existed three hundred years before olddrillpress the tool portrayed in the Encyclopedie." Since olddrillpress the lathe was shown in a chapter devoted to machines of war "it is likely that screwdrivers appeared first in military workshops, though perhaps not in France, as I had assumed, but in Germany"

The new separator on the 7460 reduces the amount of green bolls and rocks entering the cleaner. This increases the life of the saws and puts fewer green bolls in the basket, which olddrillpress saves money through reduced ginning costs.Cleaning capacity is also enhanced because of new finger grates that are six inches wider. This design facilitates the use of all 60-inches of the on-board field cleaner.Other cleaner improvements allow faster field speeds, with less plugging, and reduced maintenance time. A new lower saw reclamation brush on the lower saw drum grabs cotton before it falls out of the cleaner and guides it to the basket. This puts more cotton in the basket and less in the burr trail, which improves turnout.
