It’s a good question—and one we hear often: “If the i-paddock Typhoon doesn’t have a reversing clutch, how do I back it out when it plugs?”
The answer? You reverse it just like you would any OEM header drum—using your combine’s standard reversing procedure. No special tools, no unique setup. It’s that simple.
But here’s the real kicker:
With the Typhoon, plugging is rare in the first place—because it’s built to prevent it.
Smaller Drum. Smarter Feeding.
The Typhoon’s most obvious difference is its smaller-diameter drum. Compared to larger OEM drums, the Typhoon gives you a feeding window that’s up to 33% larger. That means more room for crop to flow naturally, with less compression and fewer pinch points.
The result: smoother, faster feeding into the feeder house with less risk of plugging—even in tough conditions.
Patented Paddle Flighting = Even Flow
Beyond the drum size, the Typhoon sets itself apart with patented paddle flighting featuring integrated breaks. This innovative design feeds the crop across the whole drum instead of just the centre.
That balanced feeding helps prevent overload in the center of the header and promotes more efficient threshing and separation inside the combine.
Built Tough. Runs Smooth. Lasts Longer.
Every part of the Typhoon is made for real harvest conditions—from heavy canola and wheat to soybeans and barley. Its high-strength, abrasion-resistant materials are built to last, while fewer moving parts mean less maintenance and more uptime.
Between the smaller drum, patented flighting, and even feed delivery, the Typhoon is designed to make harvest smoother—not more complicated.
