Like Shimmy 1 says, in wheat the back of the concaves should be set so they just don't hit and the front about 1/4". Speed the cylinder up until you see cracked grain, then slow it down a little. If you see unthreshed heads in the grain bin, close the lower sieve down. See how much you are returning when you are cutting.
Now if you want to make it a wheat machine, take the concave out, take all the wires out of the concave, weld metal between the first four concave bars half way down the bars. You won't believe how much better job it will do.
If rasp bar cylinder blanking off 10 to 20 % of the concave will get the heads to thrash
with the separator off, close the sieves, all the way
throw some grain on the sieves, and open till the grain drops |
