Model 9960
Self-Propelled
Peanut
Combine
Congratulations on your purchase of an
AMADAS Model 9960 Self-Propelled
Peanut Combine. The 9960 SP is the
culmination of years of intensive research
and development in a combined effort by
AMADAS Industries and John Deere.
AMADAS Industries’ aggressive design
capabilities joined forces with John Deere’s
drive train expertise to produce the world’s
first eight-row self-propelled peanut
combine. The 9960 SP employs innovative
technology along with the industry’s largest
thrashing and separation capacity to make it
the leader in peanut combines.
Benefits
A high-capacity, self-propelled combine is
the best machine for harvesting peanuts.
Your AMADAS combine will optimize your
peanut harvest by providing the following
benefits:
•Reduced crop damage and loss. Up
to 15% less crop is lost or damaged
than with the use of a pull-type combine.
•Reduced overall harvest costs. You
need fewer machines, fewer people,
and less fuel, which results in more
profit.
•Increased harvesting capacity. The
9960’s harvesting capacity is over 33%
greater than that of a comparable pull-
type combine.
•Higher crop yield. Because the 9960
allows you to plant narrow row widths,
you will have higher crop yield.
•Superior harvesting capability in
adverse conditions. The 9960 is
unsurpassed in performance in wet,
muddy, and windblown conditions.
Standard Features
The following items are just some of the
features that come standard on the
AMADAS Model 9960 Self-Propelled
Peanut Combine.
•Turbocharged, air-to-air after cooled, 6-
cylinder, 245 HP engine
•Hydraulic, variable 3-speed ground drive
•7,500 lb (3,400 kg) capacity peanut bin
•5-cylinder separation system
•Two-speed primary picking system
•Variable speed secondary picking
system
•12” diameter collection auger.
Options
The following options are available with the
Model 9960:
•Two-or four-wheel drive
•Off-loading Conveying System (OCS) or
dump basket
•6 or 8 row header.

Safety 9960 Self-Propelled Peanut Combine
206/03/05 MAN091
Overview
Safety is the responsibility of everyone.
Although safety features are
incorporated into the machine and
dangerous areas marked, ultimately,
careful operation is the best prevention
against accidents. To reduce the risk of
accidents, please read thoroughly and
follow the safety instructions and
messages included in this manual and
on the machine.
Safety Symbols Used
The three safety symbols used on the
machine and in this manual are shown
below. The following section explains
each of these symbols in detail.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
Please familiarize yourself with each
symbol and its meaning. It is crucial
to your safety and the safety of others
that you follow the safety precautions
indicated by these symbols.
Protective Devices
Protective guards and shields have been
installed to protect the user from
hazards.
Never remove, tamper with, or modify
guards or shields. To do so could
result in serious personal injury or
death.
If it is necessary to remove a shield to
perform maintenance, it is essential
that the shield be replaced prior to
operating the combine.
Careful Lifting
Please follow safe lifting procedures when
installing or removing any component. Use a
second person as a helper when indicated by
the weight of an item.
CAUTION
It is imperative that all users read and
understand th
e safety information in this
chapter before using the combine.
Anyone who uses or works around the
combine must be familiar with th
is
information.
C
AUTION
Use extreme care when working with
hydraulic components. Escaping fluid
under pressure can penetrate the skin,
causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard
by relieving pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all
connection
s before applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard.
Protect hands and body from high
pressure fluids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor
immediately. Any fluid injected into the
skin must be surgically removed within a
few hours or
gangrene may result.
Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury
may call the Deere & Company Medical
Department in Moline, Illinois, or other
knowledgeable medical source.

Safety 9960 Self-Propelling Peanut Combine
606/03/05 MAN091
Safety Practices
DRIVE THE COMBINE SAFELY
§Do NOT operate the combine unless all
guards and/or shields are fitted and in their
correct positions.
§Before driving away, check immediate
vicinity of machine for bystanders. Use the
horn as a warning immediately before
driving away.
§Attach the header to combine with extreme
care.
KEEP RIDERS OFF OFTHE MACHINE
§Do NOT allow riders on the machine. Only
the operator should be on the machine at
any time during operation.
§Riders are subject to injury, such as being
thrown off of the machine. They also
obstruct the operator’s view, resulting in
unsafe operating conditions.
§On machines equipped with a passenger
seat, one rider is permitted.
AVOID ELECTRICAL POWER LINES
§Secure the radio aerial and bin lip
extension in transport position before
driving on public roads.
§If equipped with unload-on-the-go, make
sure the conveyor is completely pulled in
and secured before driving on public
roads.
§AVOID electrical lines, particularly low-
hanging electrical cables.
Contact with electrical lines will cause the
operator to suffer severe electrical shock
or possibly death.
Make sure all guards and shields are in place
.

9960 Self-Propelled Peanut Combine Safety
MAN091 06/03/05 7
PARK THE COMBINE SAFELY
To park safely, always:
§Lower the header and any other equipment
to the ground before exiting the combine.
§Set the parking brake, turn off the engine,
and remove the keys.
ALWAYS OPERAT E ENGINE OUTDOORS
NEVER operate the engine in a closed
building. To do so puts you and any one in the
vicinity at risk for carbon monoxide inhalation.
HANDLE FUEL SAFELY –AVOID FIIRES
§Handle fuel with care; it is highly
flammable.
§Do NOT refuel the machine while smoking
or when near open flame or sparks.
§Always stop engine before refueling
machine.
§Fill fuel tank outdoors.
§Prevent fires by keeping machine clean of
accumulated trash,grease, and debris.
§Always clean up spilled fuel.

Safety 9960 Self-Propelling Peanut Combine
806/03/05 MAN091
PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES
§Be prepared if a fire starts.
§Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher
handy.
§Keep emergency numbers for doctors,
ambulance service, hospital, and fire
department near your telephone.
WEAR SEAT BELT
Use the seat belt provided whenever operating
the combine or when riding in the combine as
an observer.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
§Wear close fitting clothing and safety
equipment appropriate to the job.
§Operating equipment safely requires the
full attention of the operator. Do NOT wear
radio or music headphones while operating
machine.

9960 Self-Propelled Peanut Combine Safety
MAN091 06/03/05 9
HANDLE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS SAFELY
§Direct exposure to hazardous chemicals
can cause serious injury. Potentially
hazardous chemicals used with
AMADAS/John Deere equipment include
such items as lubricants, coolants, paints,
and adhesives.
§Before you start any job using a hazardous
chemical, check the MSDS so that you are
aware of the risks and know how to
proceed safely. Carefully follow all
procedures, using only recommended
equipment.
§See your AMADAS/John Deere dealer for
MSDSs on chemical products used with
AMADAS/John Deere equipment.
STAY CLEAR OF HEADER
§Many moving parts (such as the auger)
cannot be shielded due to function. Stay
clear of all moving elements during
operation.
§Always disengage header drive, shut off
the engine and remove the key before
servicing or unclogging the header.

Safety 9960 Self-Propelling Peanut Combine
10 06/03/05 MAN091
USE SAFETY LIGHTS AND DEVICES
Slow moving tractors, self-propelled
equipment and towed implements or
attachments can create hazardswhen driven
on public roads. They are difficult to see,
especially at night.
§Whenever you drive on public roads, use
flashing lights and turn signals according to
local regulations.
§To increase visibility, use the lights and
devices provided with your machine.
§Install extra flashing warning lights on
added equipment.
§Keep safety items in good condition.
§Replace missing or damaged items.
§An “implement safety lighting”kit is
available from your AMADAS/John Deere
dealer.
TRANSPORT COMBINE WITH HEADER
SAFELY
§Before driving the combine on public
roads, remove the header.
§Attach the header securely to the header
trailer, as it may shift during transport.
Remove header for travel
.
