Case IH Farm 3020 Flexible Auger
Flex Auger Heads 3020 Flexible Auger

Features
Frame
- Top frame beam is an impressive 6” X 6” in size.
- The entire frame construction is fully welded, with welded-in back sheets.
- The auger floor is 4mm thick and fully welded.
- Frame is designed to handle the toughest harvest conditions.
Header Drive
- PTO shaft(s) transfer shaft driven power to both the auger and knife drive(s).
- Knife drive(s) are then driven with a heavy duty belt.
- Auger is driven with a heavy #80 chain.
Dividers
- Before the crop engages the reel or cutterbar, it must first be divided by the header.
- The 3020 header incorporates poly crop dividers that have a simple but very effective design.
- The dividers gently present the most down and tangled crop to the reel and cutterbar while positively following ground terrain.
Divider Types
- All 3020 headers are standard equipped with a medium length crop divider that is recommended for most crop conditions.
- In tough conditions, such as tall and viney crops, an optional long crop divider is available.
- Optional rod crop dividers are avialable.
Ensures proper feeding and cutting
Six Bat Reel
- The Case IH 3020 six bat reel positively engages the crop, and then gently lifts the crop over the cutterbar to the auger.
- Reel design and gentle crop engagement is imperative to ensure proper feeding and cutting.
- The reel design promotes increased grain savings and grain quality with gentle crop handling.
Reel Options
- There are two tine options available for the 3020 header.
- Plastic reel tines are recommended for most crop types and conditions.
- For more demanding conditions, such as rice and tough down crop, steel tines are available.
Reel Position Sensors
- Reel positions sensors are located on both reel up/down and fore/aft.
- When a new header height is set the reel will be programed to the set height as well.
- This means for example; you can have a short bean and a tall bean setting for the reel.
- Proper reel position increases grain savings, combine productivity and reduces operator fatigue.
Reel Finger Timing
- The reel finger timing is adjustable on all 3020 headers.
- Timing is adjustable with a simple lever and wrench.
- This provides the customer the ability to tailor reel feeding based on crop types and conditions.
Achieve Excellent Cut Quality
Knife
- The guard and knife, along with the rest of the cutterbar, ensure that down and tangled crop is picked up and properly cut.
- The 3020 header comes standard with a 3-inch fine cut knife and guard.
- The 3 inch knife provides excellent cut quality while promote high cutting speeds.
Knife Drive
- Standard on all headers is a single heavy-duty high capacity wobble box knife drive
- The knife drive is belt driven from the left side of the head.
- The 30 & 35 foot headers can be ordered with a dual knife drive.
- The dual knife drive is recommended in heavy crop or when cutting across rows.
Skid Shoes
- Reel positions sensors are located on both reel up/down and fore/aft.
- Just as important as the cutterbar suspension are the skid shoes that support the cutterbar.
- The 3020 header incorporates the same proven skid shoes used on the prior 1020 header.
- The short profile allows the shoes to follow constantly changing ground conditions.
- Since the pressure from the cutterbar is only spread over a small area on the skid shoes, it will prevent the header from “pushing” in soft or muddy conditions.
Auger
- To promote grain quality and smooth, consistent crop feeding, the 3020 header uses a large 26-inch diameter auger
- Auger features 5-inch deep flighting to gently convey the crop from the cutterbar to the feeder.
Auger Floor
- All 3020 Heads include as standard equipment a stainless steel auger floor for smooth, easy feeding.
- The transition from the cutterbar to the auger floor provides an easy flow of crop over the front floor dam into the auger trough.
Auger Drive
- The auger on the Case IH 3020 header is driven by a number 80 chain.
- The chain ensures long chain life and positive auger drive even in tough crop conditions
Auger Adjustment
- The 3020 header promotes crop and header adaptability with a fully adjustable auger.
- To fit the customer’s harvest needs, the auger can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally.
