Run n and r series for 25 years if your going to torch holes you will create vibration into gear box then put small slugs into helical bars then double rotor end shield this will make the machine loss the rotor shutter in hard to harvest conditions plus never have rotor box come loose to bad agco never fixed these small problems
Thanks for comments ran machine in 2023 wheat soybeans and had very little vibration we balance the rotor in the combine put gear box in neutral and spun rotor by hand and added weights worked well
That's good info. I like it when people share what they learn by experience. Good job!
just update the machine ran great just one bearing issue
I put on a sunny brook sweep kit on the rotor. But you don’t need to put anything behind them.
Thanks that was the question i had earlier and the discharge paddles
@@KesslerGrainfarms oh ok
From everything I can see looks like it’ll work good for you.
Answering old comment FYI thanks for your videos that helped me also the machine ran great this year thanks again
@@KesslerGrainfarms thanks
I have the new sweeps, staggered all the way crossed the rotor. I also went back in with one set of reversers.
i really dont like reverse bars they take quit a bit of HP
did you do anything with helical bars
How much ceiling height does it take to unfold the auger?
20 ft side walls 24ft ceiling
How did you come up with idea for serrated paddles?
Talked to Dan H about them and he put them on years ago and said it helped the feeding to chopper
i put 1 inch plate behind helical bars and 1 inch bar on r 42 combine.
you did 1" behind helical and 1" behind you cylinder bars
I dont think it would fit in the hole be nice to see pictures
You have a part number for steep pitch helicals?
I have the drawing off how to put them in and the
parts numbers for them
send me a e mail and i can forward the part numbers to you
Those paddles look good 👍
You should have punched or drilled your holes in them 1/2 plates now your going to have an unbalanced rotor you might have a shake when when use if it
I will be balancing the rotor in the machine which i have done in the past thanks
