Wheat is the only thing that has been through my R-62, but this year I planted yellow peas. How do I set my machine?

Thanks

I wouldn't run the rotor to slow. if you do it can tend to wrap the peas and "auger" them through with out threshing them. I found 300 rpm to work well and not crack to much. we had less than .5% splits and we combined them at 12-14% moisture. That was with pfp rotor and the concave fairly wide open.
