I am talking about the feeder house upper shaft to lower shaft (header drive). Never paid much attention to red, silver, or for that matter the newer green. But I don't think a single (one groove) D section belt could drive a 35ft header in the green stemmed beans here. Maybe it can. I am asking.
The rotor is hyd. drive on the MF/Gleaner. The CIH combines use a multi groove belt. I have no idea what Deere uses. Never looked.
