Subject: Re: 9510 Straw Walker Losses



Pittsburg, Kansas

I agree with the notion of needing agressive seperation at the cylinder/concave. If you set the combine by the book in anything but very easy to thresh wheat there will be quite a bit left in the head that shakes out all the way up the walkers. Run the cylinder tight and fast (if you are not already) and you make sure the wheat is at least out of the head at the concave. Open it up and slow it down as needed to prevent cracking if there is a problem. With agressive threshing usually the walker loss becomes a problem only in very heavy straw or down grain where all the straw is going through the machine. We run a 9610 along side a 9760 STS and it does a very respectible job (9760 35', 9610 30' with the 9760 running even to 1 mph faster than the 9610) in 50-70 bu soft wheat.
