Im thinking that with the front fins removed, the ripple tin becomes nessessary to keep the material from hitting the newly made opening?
When I first got this machine, the previous owner had the front of the chaffer blocked off with a rubberized thick canvas so that no air got above the chaffer.It all went under.Lots of chaff in the return if you wanted to keep from throwing away the grain. I took it out and it improved capacity quite a bit.
Ill try the tin tomorow. I only have a few acres. But it would be nice to clean it up a bit.
Is there any crop that you wouldnt reccomend the riple tin being installed for? Seems like ti should work for all crops and sunflowers too.



harvest claims that the shoe sieve is mounted far forward of the chaffer,so even without the ripple tin, nothing falls on the front 3-5 rows of shoe sieve fins.


The modified shoe sieve and ripple tin on the chaffer seem to work well in peas, soybean, wheat flax., that all I grow.
