I recently purchased a JD 45 Combine with 2 row corn head. Well I tried picking some corn yesterday and noticed that there were no tailings coming out and no corn was coming up the elevator to the grain bin. The elevator is working. Any advice on where I need to start looking for the problems. Its looks like all the tailing are clogging up by looking in the rear of the machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
You have something missing (belt, chain, etc). You need to engage the separator/threshing drive at an idle and crawl all over that thing. Everything should be moving. You have a belt missing somewhere that drives the cross auger and the walkers and such. Another option is that something is in a bind and making a drive belt slip. Try turning and moving everything with it shut off.

You need to go over that thing with a fine toothed comb before you put it in the field. One bad bearing can mean spreading flaming goodies out the back. I usually count on one full day before harvest to crawl all over the combine, wiggle everything, blow out dust and buildup, and grease it. It is the dirtiest job on the farm. Today is my fall combine day. I'm hoping the ground is dry enough tomorrow to get some beans out.
 
I looked it over and greased everywhere i could find. The walkers were moving. Ill go back over it Monday. Thanks
