Basic Combine Adjustments Chart

IMPORTANT: This chart indicates initial values. Different terrain and crop conditions may need subsequent adjustments.

Adjustments of cleaning shoe extension are not indicated, it is recommended that the extension is adjusted to provide spacing 2mm greater than that of the cleaning shoe or according to the amount of tailings.

The minimum value displayed on INFOTRAK monitor for concave spacing is 4. See concave threshing cylinder distances at "Concave and Cylinder Clearance Adjustment".

NOTE: Always adjust cylinder and fan speed with engine at top speed.
