Fuxin Zhangwu Master Wu: A seasoned farmer mechanic goes 'newbie' and reaps a bountiful harvest in the first season

2026-07-06

"2025 was my first year providing peanut harvesting services, and the very first peanut harvester I chose was from Zoomlion Harvest."

Master Wu, a well-known veteran machinery operator from Zhangwu County, Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, had been eyeing the booming market for peanut harvesting services in 2025. He planned to purchase a peanut harvester but hadn't yet decided on a brand. Recalling the chaotic early days of the peanut harvester market, he admitted feeling somewhat helpless: "Back then, there were so many brands—some looked good on paper, but once they hit the field, they dropped or missed peanuts frequently and broke down often. But in recent years, the market has gradually become more standardized. The smaller, unreliable brands have slowly disappeared, leaving only those that truly stand the test of time." It was then that Master Wu happened to see Zoomlion Harvest's peanut harvester on a short-video platform, prompting him to visit the site in person to inspect the machine. "I went to see the Zoomlion model firsthand," he recalled. "Even though I'd never operated a peanut harvester before, as an experienced operator, I could tell its cleaning system was exceptionally well-designed. The drum, cleaning sieve, and all key components were solidly built. That’s when I made up my mind—I’d go with Zoomlion Harvest."

During the 2025 peanut harvest season, Master Wu officially began operating this Zoomlion machine as a "semi-newcomer." "At first, I was a bit nervous—after all, it was my first time driving a peanut pick-up harvester, and I worried about getting used to the controls," he said with a smile. "But the Zoomlion harvester turned out to be surprisingly user-friendly. Many functions are intelligent and intuitive. Within three days, I had it completely figured out." He added enthusiastically, "The performance of the Zoomlion harvester exceeded my expectations. Whether on sloped land or slightly flooded fields, it ran smoothly and steadily, and harvested quickly. Last season, I harvested 1,700 mu of peanuts, and the quality was excellent—almost no damage at all. Farmers lined up just to hire me."

The Zoomlion peanut harvester became Master Wu’s trusted partner in his business, consistently delivering stable performance without any major breakdowns. When it came to after-sales service, he expressed high satisfaction. "Farm machinery works under long, intense, continuous conditions, so malfunctions are inevitable. But Zoomlion Harvest responds promptly. Once, during operation, I encountered a clogged conveyor pipe. Worried about missing the farming window, I immediately called their hotline to check if I’d made an operational error or if there was a hidden fault. A technician arrived quickly, fixed the issue, and even conducted a full inspection of the entire machine. Nowadays, after-sales service is a core consideration when buying machinery. With a reliable partner like Zoomlion Harvest, my business will surely grow stronger."

Master Wu’s experience reflects the broader story of Zoomlion Harvest’s user base. Thanks to superior product quality, efficient and reliable performance, and prompt after-sales support, Zoomlion Harvest’s peanut harvesters have become the trusted choice among farmers across China’s major peanut-producing regions. Over the years, the brand has continuously evolved its products based on real user needs, effectively addressing various challenges in peanut harvesting and helping operators increase their income.

In 2026, Zoomlion Harvest launched the upgraded H6 MAX model, offering comprehensive improvements—from the pickup system and powertrain to user interface and fine craftsmanship. The new model delivers greater power, higher efficiency, and enhanced reliability, instantly becoming the top choice for many experienced operators upgrading their equipment. It features an upgraded intelligent main clutch system that enables one-touch engagement and disengagement, eliminating the need for prolonged pressing and waiting—making operation effortless even for beginners. Meanwhile, the redesigned fruit separation system ensures more thorough dehulling and significantly reduces fruit drop, boosting overall work efficiency. The design has also been optimized with a dual-lift structure for pods and debris, featuring enhanced anti-jamming and anti-clogging mechanisms that provide greater load capacity. This ensures stable operation even during prolonged continuous use, reducing the likelihood of malfunctions. Additionally, the upgraded cleaning chamber combined with adjustable screen assemblies enables more thorough removal of impurities, resulting in peanut pods harvested with minimal soil or stalk residue. The improved cleaning efficiency effectively helps farmers reduce costs, increase productivity, and boost revenue.
