Once again you are correct. I was going too slow. I upped teh speed to 2.6-2.8 mph and I have 90-95% whole cobs on the walkers. hardly any ground corn, but there is still some. I just can't run it any faster than this. I am on hillsides that are steeper than what teh machine tilts and when I get moving any faster, it starts sliding down the hill or blowing corn off teh back on the bottom side of teh chaffer. So, I am content.
Today I ran 214 bushel corn, with a 59.9 lb test weight. I'm happier than:
Gallager at a farmers market
A witch in a broom factory
An antelope with night vision goggles
Christopher Columbus with speed boats
hahaha love those commercials...
I'm starting tomorrow at 7am, to load out a truck and when the truck gets moving and teh frost isn't too bad, I should be able to have that farm cleaned off before 2pm or 3pm and move on to the next.
I ran one morning when there was very heavy fluffly frost on the corn and teh whole combine filled up like a snowcone. There was water and big snowballs coming out of it until 10am. I won't do that again!

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
