Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust concave clearance based on the crop being harvested to ensure optimal threshing performance and minimize grain loss.
Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect and maintain proper tension on all belts and chains, particularly the feederhouse and separator drive belts, to prevent slippage and premature wear.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Regularly clean the sieves and chaffer to remove debris and ensure proper airflow for efficient grain separation. Use compressed air or a brush to remove accumulated material.
Bearing Greasing: Follow the recommended greasing schedule for all bearings, especially those on the header, feederhouse, and separator, to prevent premature failure and extend component life.
