Depth Wheels
Ensure the depth wheels are set to the correct width settings for your particular system.
Double check as sometimes with ridging up during the growing season the ridge
positions can vary. Do not apply too much pressure on the depth wheels. As a result of
too much pressure, clods could be produced and soil made to stick to the crop. If this
happens, more agitation will be necessary meaning the possibility of more crop damage.
Enough pressure to keep the wheels turning is sufficient in most conditions.
Primary Web
The primary web speed in conjunction with ground speed is essential for the harvester
to work efficiently. Incorrect web speed can result in crop damage and poor harvester
performance. If web speed is too fast this will result in roll back and poor take off after
the share. Either decrease web speed or increase forward speed. If the web speed is
too slow this will result in the machine being overloaded which will cause poor
performance of the separating areas, putting undue stress on the mechanical
components, reducing the life of the machine, and putting excessive amounts of soil and
haulm into the discharge elevator. Either increase web speed or decrease forward
speed.
Vari-Sep
The variable step between the primary web and secondary web is used to break up the
ridge and to start to separate the crop from the soil. In the fully raised position the crop
will pass across with minimum disturbance, while fully dropped the ridge will be broken
up allowing the soil to drop through the web.
Secondary Web
Separation on the secondary web is mainly controlled by changing the pitch of the web.
The speed of the web relative to the primary web will give more or less spread to the
crop on the web, and determine the amount of soil carried over onto the separators.
Agitators
Over use of the agitators is one of the main causes of damage and will result in roll back
and bounce of the crop causing bruising etc. Always use the minimum amount of
agitation. When starting to harvest it is best to begin with minimal agitation. Add more
agitation as conditions dictate
Omega Separator Units
The height of the polyurethane scroll can be specified as 10mm (standard), or 6mm for
less aggressive action. The clod rollers can be ebonite, plain steel, or stainless steel.
Stainless steel is the least aggressive due to the smooth, shiny surface, while ebonite
will give more aggressive, general-purpose results. Also, fitting a smaller diameter clod
roller allows larger more aggressive gaps to be set through the separator. By raising the
height of the clod roller relative to the scroll, a larger ripple is introduced into the crop
flow creating more separation by allowing the crop to ride over the soil and top. To work
in conjunction with this, the relative speed and rotation direction of the clod rollers can
be set. When running the clod roller in reverse to the crop flow, the higher the speed,
the more aggressive the separation will be. Reducing the speed lessens the pinching
effect of the clod rollers. Running the clod roller with the crop flow at a slow speed will
give some separation, while increasing the speed will transfer all the crop and soil.
