Started on 10 acres of rye with a 1968 F.Set everything according to the book, but am overloading the tailings elevator with nearly clean grain. Tried different settings on both the chaffer and sieve, but no change. Only 2 things that I can see be causing the problem . The fan linkage is out of adustment, and can only get it down to about half speed. Or I've got a hole someplace allowing clean grain to get in the tailings auger. Any old combine guys got any thoughts on the solution to the problem? thanks. I have never run this machine in grain before, always had a corn head on .

Is your F by chance a corn/soybean special? If so the top sieve needs changing to a small grain type, the slots are narrower and longer. I had this problem with a C-II I bought for Fescue and had the same problem plugging the tailing return up. Changed the top sieve and cured the problem. The up shot was my machine was not a corn/soybean special but it had that type of sieve.

Hi Doug,

Have you got those walkers set all the way forward? Is the air curtain in place? Is the weight rod in the bottom of the curtain? Have you tried a different (steeper) angle on the seive? Really sounds like your shoe is overloaded for some reason.

Also, about the only way clean grain can come over the top to the tailings is if the seive is closed down too far or the clean grain pan has a hole in it.

I would open that chaffer up, clear out to 5/8" or so if you have to. If the tailings still show clean grain, I'd take out the chaffer and seive and see if that clean grain pan hasn't rusted thru somewhere and letting the grain dump into the return auger.
