White – other models: the collective page of combines and forage harvesters outside the named ranges, from the 802 forage harvester to the Harvest Boss 8600 to 9720 range, 72 to 190 kW, Perkins and Chrysler engines
White Farm Equipment of Oak Brook, Illinois, grew out of the harvesting-machinery arm of Oliver's successor group and carries this page of combines and forage harvesters the register could not assign to a named range. It runs from the 802 forage harvester through the smaller types 545, 2500, 2600, 5542, 6200, 6400 and 7300 to the Harvest Boss range (8600, 8800, 8900, 9700, 9720), which formed the flagship models in the 1980s. As engines the register lists Perkins diesels and Chrysler industrial engines running on petrol or LPG, a picture typical of North American harvesting machines of the 1970s and 1980s with their choice between diesel and petrol power.

The register lists here 13 versions with 72 to 190 kW, or 97 to 260 hp.
White ranked alongside Massey Ferguson, International Harvester and John Deere as a supplier in the postwar North American harvesting-machinery market, before the brand lost ground in the 1980s amid industry consolidation and eventually merged into AGCO.
For a used purchase of these older combines and forage harvesters, check the condition of the threshing and chopping drums, sieves and cylinders, corrosion on the grain tank and straw hood, the condition of the carburettor or injection pump depending on engine variant, and the availability of Chrysler or Perkins parts, today obtainable only through specialist dealers.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
