Have a 1064 corn head on a 05 2388. Is there a speed where the header won't work properly? In the owners manual it says that 4mph is the mazimum speed, but we run around 5 to 5,5 without much trouble. but when I finished last year most of my stalk roll bearings were out.

i run a 1063 on a 2577 and after 5.0-5.5 i seem to just strip the stalks rather than let the knife rolls chew the stalk down

I run a 1083 at 5 mph and it seems to do an awesome job. A quick question though, on my 2188 can you speed up and slow down the feeder like on the deere's?

7010/2608 chopping head, 5-7.5mph, great job. had a 2388 with 1083, could run 6.5 in poor corn

cih2188, you can't change the feeder speed but you can change the speed of the corn head by using a different size drive sprocket.

Which sprocket do most people use? I believe the 3 choices are 26, 30, and 35. We are using the 30 tooth.
