PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Shattering of grain ahead of
cutter bar
Reel speed not coordinated with ground speed,
causing excessive agitation before crop is cut. Adjust reel speed to coordinate with ground
speed so reel will move crop evenly.
Reel is positioned too low. Raise reel.
Ground speed too fast for conditions of crop. Slow ground speed.
Cut crop building up and falling
from front of or behind the cut-
ter bar or loss of grain heads at
cutter bar.
Reel not adjusted low enough for proper delivery
of cut crop to auger. Set reel low enough to sweep material from
cutter bar.
Insufficient ledge for crop travel. Extend rigid cutter bar.
Auger clearance too high from platform bottom.
Adjust outer ends of auger to 1/2” (13mm)
clearance of platform bottom and check finger
clearance.
Insufficient airflow or misdirection of airflow from
manifold to clean off cutter bar.
Adjust manifold so that air flow is directed more
at cutter bar to keep it clean.
Clean debris from rotary screen.
Check for and clear obstruction from flex hose
or manifold or drop tubes.
Check butterfly position and open to allow more
air flow.
Check fan rpm, adjust combine shaft speed and
check for proper gear box ratio for combine.
Reel speed too slow. Increase speed of reel.
Reel is positioned too high. Move reel back and then down.
Build up of grain on cutterbar.
Lower height of reel and set fore-and-aft position
as close as possible to cutter bar and auger.
Uneven or bunched feeding of
crop to cylinder.
Feeder chain carrying straw back around and
disrupting crop flow to the cylinder. Extend feederhouse stripper down to stop straw
from filtering back out.
Crop “tailing in” to the auger (heads not feeding
first). Rotate manifold so that air flow is directed higher
on the crop.
Cutter bar not at recommended speed.
Check basic speed of combine (see combine
owner’s manual).
Gear box leaking or overheat-
ing.
Incorrect oil type or level. Check level and replace if necessary.
Breather plugged. Remove breather, clean and reinstall.
Seals are leaking. Install new seal kit.
Rotary screen plugs.
Debris is pinched between the base and the
screen, stopping the rotor.
Adjust air base closer to the screen.
Screen cleaner not adjusted properly.
Adjust the screen cleaner to revolve close to the
screen, but not touching it.
Needs Rotary Screen Wrap.
Contact Crary Dealer for Rotary Screen Wrap
(P/N 25592-12). This wrap will prevent debris
from becoming lodged between the base and
the rotary screen.
