Drum speed can be adjusted by
using the drum selector switch and
the drum speed switch, it is
recommended that the drum
speed is adjusted by 50rpm at a
time.
To obtain initial settings it is recommended that the suggested settings within the
Operators Manual are used, these are to only be used as a starting point, then
adjustments should be made from there. Often changing one thing can change another.
Only make one adjustment at a time.
Only do ‘Just Enough’ to avoid overloading the machine and using power unnecessarily.
Threshing
Prime consideration here is to remove the
maximum amount of seed with the minimum of
damage to seed and straw. Over-threshing cracks
grains, produces more chaff and takes more
power.
The concave can be adjusted by using the lever
situated at the RHS of the drivers seat. By lifting
the lever the drum to concave gap is reduced and
by lowering the lever it is increased. It is
recommended that the lever is only moved by one
notch at a time and not when threshing.
