I can see how it could slow flow down through the whole machine, if you are constipated you don't have much of an appetite. Not that it's a huge problem, but that doesn't mean there is not room for improvement.I just don't understand what "banging" occurs with a discharge beater, or how the beater allows you drive faster. Never had the feed accelerator or discharge beater ever compromise my speed. Also have never plugged the feed accelerator on a 70 series, and the discharge better once...took five minutes to unplug. I guess in Canada you must combine is some awful conditions. Still don't see how they hold back your speed.
Good grief! Has nobody ever heard of preharvest RUp or a swather? I wouldn't hammer that crap through my machine.What is a pile of pre-cleaners? What are you talking about?
I'm sorry, but this just seems too hard to believe. I mean we've harvested tens of thousands of acres for decade all over the midwest, and we've combined kochia weeds that were outrageous with out any issues of plugging with a STS. You wanna talk about plugging, Case's rethraher won't work in those conditions as all! We run the two brands side by side every day (S670 and 8230 now), and we've had to pull the Case out of certain fields with weeds because the rethrasher can't cope. Some basic adjustments can contain the problem on a Deere. Good luck with your Case...that rethrasher in weeds has to be the worst current design out there...just ask some custom harvesters, this is not a secret. Belt will slip or opening into sieve area completely plugs with green weeds. As far as the S680, if they don't have the new updated sieve and software then it was a problem....it's had been greatly improved. Not solved, but greatly improved. It's hard to believe this is your experience when we have dealt this this issues for years without problems. Go over to the Case forum and ask how green weeds and their paddle rethrasher works out....poor at best based on our years and years of experience.

Very rare around here any more, they would have to fly on a burn down, just to wet.Good grief! Has nobody ever heard of preharvest RUp or a swather? I wouldn't hammer that crap through my machine.
Would you want to wait the extra week for the burn down to work with thunderstorms that could wipe out your crop almost every day? Most guys that had weeds start flushing early got it sprayed but now it's almost past the point of no return. It was a perfect storm this year, crappy thin wheat so the weeds had no competition and lots of rain late that postponed harvest past when the weeds flush.Too wet for a sprayer but just right for a combine with 450 bushel tank.
It's fine, I know it's more snow storms then tstorms that you guys deal with at wheat harvest. Every where has its struggles. Our drought just broke 3 weeks ago after 3 years.Just fooling with you flyboy. I know you have to adjust and do what you have to do. By the way if Canada has 3 times normal rain and the US is wet, somewhere there has to be a bad drought?
