Maintenance Tips

Concave Adjustment: Regularly check and adjust concave clearance to match the crop being harvested. Proper concave settings minimize grain loss and damage.
Belt and Chain Tension: Inspect belt and chain tension frequently, especially during the first few hours of operation. Loose belts and chains can lead to slippage, reduced efficiency, and premature wear.
Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean sieves and chaffers daily to ensure proper airflow and separation. Clogged sieves can cause grain loss and reduce harvesting efficiency.
Bearing Greasing: Lubricate all grease fittings according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Proper lubrication extends bearing life and prevents costly breakdowns.
