As a lifelong farmer from western Liaoning, Mr. Zhao from Fuxin has been working with peanut machinery for three or four years. Through his years of toiling in the fields, he deeply understands that reliable agricultural machinery is vital for farmers to stay rooted in the land and reap a bountiful harvest. "In our line of work, farm machinery is our livelihood. While ample power and stable performance are fundamental, reliable after-sales service is even more crucial—farming waits for no one, so having someone to promptly handle any equipment issues brings true peace of mind," Mr. Zhao says with a smile; his decision to partner with Zoomlion Harvest in 2025 allowed him to experience firsthand the benefits of that peace of mind.

Master Zhao began his journey in the agricultural machinery service business three or four years ago. "When I first started out, I bought a relatively inexpensive peanut harvester just to test the waters, but I ran into quite a few problems right from the first year," he recalls. "The machine lacked power; it would struggle and stall in fields with dense vines. Not only was the operating speed slow, but the harvested peanuts weren't clean, so farmers were constantly finding fault. What gave me the biggest headache, though, was the after-sales service. Whenever the harvester broke down and I called for support, either no one answered, or I was told I’d have to wait days for someone to arrive. Watching the critical window for harvesting slip away while I waited helplessly was truly agonizing."

Later, while chatting casually with a fellow operator, Master Zhao first heard about the Zhonglian Shouhuo peanut harvester. His friend praised the machine for its powerful performance and high operating speed, but highlighted its attentive after-sales service—specifically, the team’s responsiveness whenever help was needed—which immediately caught Master Zhao’s interest. Intrigued and wanting to see for himself, he made a special trip to a dealership to inspect the machine in person. "It felt different the moment I sat in the cab; the visibility was excellent and the seat was comfortable. The difference was even more apparent during the test drive—the machine had plenty of power the instant the engine started." Without hesitation, Master Zhao purchased a Zhonglian Shouhuo peanut harvester on the spot.

During the 2025 harvesting season, Operator Zhao’s Zoomlion peanut harvester became the "workhorse" of the fields. "I covered five or six hundred mu locally—mostly dry land—and the harvester ran smoothly the whole way; that extra power really makes a difference. It works much faster than my previous machine, easily allowing me to harvest dozens of mu more in a single day," Zhao said. The harvested peanuts are clean and intact with a low breakage rate, so farmers are eager to hire him. "I used to have to go out and look for work myself, but now farmers call to book me directly, and my schedule is completely packed."

In the early stages of the operation, because he was not yet familiar with the performance of the Zoomlion peanut harvester, Operator Zhao occasionally encountered issues where peanut pods remained attached to the vines. "I felt a moment of anxiety, fearing I’d be left to fend for myself like in the past, so I quickly called the after-sales service team." To his surprise, a service technician arrived on-site with the necessary tools shortly after the call. "The technician first carefully assessed the situation, then knelt in the field to fine-tune the machine. He patiently taught me how to adjust the pod-picking parameters based on the peanuts' growth stage and moisture levels, and the problem was resolved in no time."

That experience put Master Zhao’s mind completely at ease. "I used to worry that big manufacturers might act high-and-mighty or treat customers poorly, but the after-sales service from Zoomlion Harvest turned out to be so down-to-earth; they genuinely care about our needs as users." Thanks to this reliable peanut harvester and the attentive support, Master Zhao’s earnings last year were far more stable than in previous years. "Farmers saw how fast and clean my harvesting work was, so they started coming to me directly—it’s a hassle-free way to make good money." This year, Master Zhao plans to keep working close to home. "I’m getting on in years and don’t want to travel far; I just want to take on jobs locally and in nearby villages. With Zoomlion Harvest’s machinery and their support team backing me up, I feel completely secure—even if a problem does crop up, I know there’s someone to handle it, so I don’t have to worry the way I used to."

Master Zhao says he now praises Zoomlion Harvest peanut harvesters to everyone he meets: "Many of my fellow operators bought Zoomlion Harvest machines after hearing my recommendation, and they’ve all been impressed with the performance." Thanks to the Zoomlion Harvest peanut harvester and its attentive after-sales service, Master Zhao’s journey as a machine operator has shifted from a source of frustration to a worry-free experience. For operators, choosing the right machine is crucial, but so is securing reliable after-sales support—and Zoomlion Harvest is becoming a trusted, dependable partner for an increasing number of them.

In 2026, building upon the highly acclaimed H6 Super model, Zhonglian Harvest meticulously refined its technical details to launch the H6 MAX—a peanut pickup harvester. Addressing key operational pain points, the H6 MAX features upgrades to three core systems that elevate ease of use, efficiency, and stability to new heights, offering operators a more hassle-free experience. To resolve the inconvenience of traditional harvesters requiring the operator to hold down the main clutch pedal, the H6 MAX introduces an innovative one-touch engagement and disengagement system. Operators can switch the clutch with a simple button press rather than maintaining continuous pedal pressure; this streamlined process significantly reduces hand fatigue during prolonged operation. Whether starting, turning, or stopping, operators enjoy effortless control, resulting in a smoother and more efficient workflow.
