Rasp Bars Were Loose!

Finished with peas, now to get ready for spring wheat. Wtih down time between crops we replaced the rollers on the TV380 and hauled all our pea crop in!

In this video we welded flat iron on skip wire modules and installed them in 3l 3r 4l 4r. The reason for this is to control the mog, chaff, trash that fall through onto the cleaning area worsening the grain sample.

This is NOT recommended for yields above 20 bushels an acre. Because our spring wheat is running 10-12 bushels this modification worked very well for us. If you are in crops yielding 20+ bushels then use small or large wire modules as you'll need more opportunities for grain to fall onto the sieve.

The best setup would be small wire modules instead of our modified skip wire modules but unfortunately we did not have enough small wire on hand so we modified our skip wire to get the job done.

We are now in 25 bushel wheat so we replaced 3l & 3r with large wire modules (as we have those) and are having excellent results.

Unfortunately did not make this very clear in this video so I wanted to make sure everyone understood why we did what we did and why this was recommended to us.

Okay harvest on!!
