Subject: Anybody try shelling wet corn with a 9650 walker?


IN
I can't get it off the cob at 28%. Never seen anything like it. Can't find the right combo. Book calls for 330 cylinder speed and 50-55 concave clearance. I've been up to 420 cylinder and it seems to help. Concave has been from 55 down to 45. Anything less seems to bust up the cob to much. Just trying some end rows on different fields but I'm just running to much over the walkers. Seeing whole cobs as well as broken cobs with corn still attached. A lot of them. I finally got it improved a little but still not acceptable. Worst I've ever seen it and I've had 5 cylinder machines over the years.

I know it is wet but I thought I could shell 4 or 5,000 bushels and open some fields up.

I guess I'll have to quit for a week or so. Maybe more.

Thanks
