ABSTRACT:
An attachment for a conventional level-land grain combine which allows the combine to be operated and the grain to be harvested on the slopes of hillsides without excessive buildup of the grain on the low side of the machine. The attachment includes movable doors which vary the size of the opening between the gathering and cutting unit and the feeding and separating unit. By partially closing off the opening on the low side of the machine, more of the grain is fed to the high side thus providing for more even distribution of the grain into the threshing and separating units. Movement of the doors is remotely controlled by the operator according to the slope of the hillside on which the machine is operating.
