I just bought a Oliver 83 2 row picker Sheller and I need some info on some of the levers on it.
there is one right behind the seat of the tractor and I think that it goes to the door on the end of the un-load auger.
Go straight back from that and there is another lever that looks like it adjust something on the gathering chains .I am not for sure what it does.Right above this lever on the frame is a lever that might go to the drive belt that runs the unload auger ,but the cable is gone so I am not for sure .If this lever does run the unload auger .How does the cable run to it without getting into a few chain on the way,There is a push pull handle on the front of the box where the sieves are .What does this handle do?
I have a small field of corn that I am going to shell out as soon as I get all this stuff worked out.
thanks for any info that I get.

Ratskinner: I'm 60 years old and this equipment is from the 1960s or early 70s. The guys that bought new are likely 80 and over and not many of them are on this forum. Further, this was a rare piece compared to a New Idea picker-sheller. I suggest that you hook it up and pull a few of those levers as it runs. One may change the setting on the snapping rolls, one may even reverse the rolls to unplug the rolls. You need an owners manual or a reproduction. Without one, you need to crawl around and follow the controls from lever to mechanism to figure what they do. Do this before you hook up the PTO. I do know tht Oliver made good pickers in that era. Be very careful. Good Luck. Mike-Iowa
