BP15
- 915 mm Opening
- 660 mm Auger Diameter
- 57 mm Float Range
- Belt Speed: 3 - 15 m/min
Handling high Crop Volumes
The wide, 915mm opening adjusts to any windrow size. In combination with the 57mm float range of the large, 660mm auger adapts easily to high crop volumes – constantly feeding the combine for maximum performance. The gauge wheels can be adjusted to five different height settings without the need for tools. This optimises the pick-up height for different crops and conditions.

Fly through your windrows and capture more crop
X Series Combine with BP15
John Deere Combines increase capacity in tough oilseed rape and other windrow crops; don’t limit this extreme performance by pairing it with a different belt pickup. No matter what crops or conditions you face, including thick oilseed rape, blown crop, or uneven windrows, the BP15 helps you put more grain in the tank while you cover more acres per day.
- Pick up 12.1 ha (30 acres) of wheat and 10.1 ha (25 acres) of oilseed rape canola windrows per hour with a John Deere X Series Combine and BP15 - The wide feeder house opening with adjustable feed auger flighting and tines enable this higher productivity.
- Reduce slug-feeding and the chance of plugging – Increase feed auger speed by 20 percent (compared to the 615P) with a two-speed auger drive sprocket for oilseed rape and high-yielding wheat. Or, use the slower speed feed rate for less bulky crops like cereals and grass seed. A feed auger spacer keeps the position of the auger at maximum height when harvesting large windrows.
- Send grain into the feeder house – The windscreen and a factory-installed crop shield channel free grain into the tank and reduce the amount of debris on the feeder house or hitting the windshield while reducing grain loss over the backsheet by up to 0.1 bu/acre in canola.
- Handle large windrows without slowing down – Reduce plugging in large windrows, with a heavy-duty clutch located at the auger, rather than at the platform backshaft. In the rare case of a plug, take care of it without leaving the cab with the hydraulic reverser. The removal system automatically activates when the feeder house is reversed and delays the belt engagement. The belt delay feature is exclusive to John Deere
Improve ground following in rough field conditions
X Series Combine with BP15
Even the flattest-looking fields have hidden dips, ruts, and ditches that can rob you of valuable grain. The John Deere BP15 makes easy work of uneven fields, following contours accurately to pick up grain other belt pickups would leave behind.
- Set gauge wheels without tools – The 50.8-cm (20-in.) gauge wheels are larger than on John Deere’s previous 615P. You can easily adjust the height to raise them in fluffy rapeseed or lower them in cereals.
- Glide smoothly through rough fields – Reduce bouncing during harvest and transport with a John Deere exclusive FieldGlide™ suspension. The system features a simple-to-set, adjustable air spring and heavy-duty hydraulic shock letting you increase harvest speed without bouncing over windrows.
- Maintain consistent height, even in changing terrain – Gauge wheel height sensors on the BP15 let you harvest faster while maintaining a constant operating height in different terrains to reduce missed crop.
Dampen header movement and pick up more crop with the FieldGlide™ suspension system
Glide smoothly over rough fields to pick up more grain and reduce bouncing during harvest and transport with the John Deere exclusive FieldGlide suspension system featuring an adjustable air spring and heavy-duty hydraulic shock.
FieldGlide suspension system
- The FieldGlide suspension system features an adjustable air spring and heavy-duty hydraulic design to dampen movement during field operation, allowing the operator to increase harvesting speed. Once set, the air springs do not need adjustment during the season.
- Adjustment of the air springs requires no tools and is simple compared to other belt pickup suspensions. Adjust the air springs according to instructions located on the belt pickup side sheets.
