Is It Compatible?

The most important thing to keep in mind is whether the header will be able to work with your combine. Not all headers fit all combines and you don’t want to sink your money into a piece of equipment that’ll be of no use to you. Beyond making sure your combine header works with your equipment, you'll also want to make sure that the electrical systems match up so that you still get the full work potential from your equipment. It'd be a shame to buy an option that results in reducing the efficiency of your machine.
 

Which Size is Best for You?

You might want to get a small combine header so it can fit in easily through your gate. This isn’t the best approach, however, as getting too small of a combine header model will result in losing the capacity of your machine. You'll have to adjust your equipment for the smaller amount of crop coming into it. You should ideally look for a header that’s big enough to let you use your combine to its full potential.
 

Should You Get a New or Used Piece?

Both new and used headers have their pros and cons. With a new model, you’ll get the latest and greatest technology. It can be highly efficient and a great investment but it will also come at a higher price tag, which may throw your budget into a loop.

A used combine header can be a strategic move if you are willing to invest the time to do the necessary research. Anytime you buy something used, you run the risk of getting something that will break down soon after your purchase. That's why you'll want to spend time finding a reputable seller as well as inspecting it before buying it. If you do your research, you can get a quality option at a fraction of the cost.
