Johnny Burrell with the stream mag. I'm out here with Chad Henderson today. Chad Perkins. Today we're at our field day here in Jackson, Tennessee.
00:07
Chad came down, both of 'em came down, spent some time with us, gotta talk to our customers down here about what can we do to set these combines
00:14
to make 'em more efficient, to get more off the cob. We did it last year. We, we tried to get it, we got down about 35% horse
00:19
of corn at the field at the 1st of August This year we did it again. We planted a, about an 89 88
00:25
day corn or something like that. It's even got a white cob, which is very unusual for us. You can see it wasn't that big of an ear. About what?
00:31
175 bushel shaft? Yep, yep, yep. A hundred. Anywhere from 150 to 175 bushel. We was talking about a 16 millimeter.
00:37
So we based this old combine setup on it. Perkins did he based it up on, we're starting now with a do cal for, we got 16 millimeters
00:44
and then talking about setting up with six millimeters worth of clearance prior to that.
00:48
And then how to get your numbers through the cab and talk about the pinch point. What you think on that. Uh, that's,
00:53
that's the biggest thing about this ESA system. It's all about getting them leveled. Right. The easiest way is take a quarter inch Allen wrench in the
01:00
front between the RIFing element fifth bar down eighth inch Allen wrench in the back.
01:04
That's gonna give you six millimeters of clearance when you're at zero on your concave setting. Instead of way deer is where it's zero is zero.
01:12
And then in the back we're giving about a two inch pinch in the front. It's allowing these ears to roll on themselves
01:18
and get 'em thrashed out as it moves back through. That little bit of a pinch point is gonna slow it down and any tip journals
01:24
or anything that's left on that, it is gonna clean that off back there in the back. And then with their separation system,
01:29
with the build disruptors, you put your spaces in place and there, there's literally nothing back there. 80% of the crop is off at the time. Gives, yeah.
01:38
And with s as concave, you're able to run so much slower on the rpm. What were y'all running? 2 2 2 42 42. 42 40. Yeah.
01:46
And, and I mean this is in an environment we're not used to running with, but what we're gonna say about this
01:50
is there's always go out. You know, one cool thing is we came out here, cut about 20, 25 acres today.
01:55
We got to test out these combines to see what we needed to do going into, 'cause what we're 10 days, two weeks off from starting getting somebody like Chad
02:02
to come down and help you, fine tune 'em. Really pays off. Especially when you had these aftermarket combines like Eston Cement.
