I have a 1680 with a long sieve. I just finished some milo that had been sprayed with roundup to kill. Plant was dead and I got along fine in it running 5 mph plus in 90 bpa running 13 to 15% moisture.
I have now started to cut milo that the plant is still green, the milo is making 100 + bpa and 16 to 17% moisture. I am down to 3.5 mph and am overloading my tailings. If I open my lower sieve anymore than it is the bin gets to trashy. I am running the concaves at about 2, rotor at 550, and the fan about 1100. I have the front part of the top sieve is closed the other parts are at 1/2 and 5/8. The grain loss is acceptable.
