"We used to be 7.5", but transitioned to 9" about ten years ago. The old man says he saw an instant yeild improvement using 9" at a higher seed rate (on wheat). He says it seems to be the way to go in low moisture regions. But it does…"

"Ok so harvest just got done. And just so you all know, Canola (dry canola) is horrific. That fine dust it puts out has been plugging the air filter every few hours. I think I can do something about this at the rotary screen, perhaps It will keep the…"

"No corn, No beans. Wheat, when dryer than dry the dust just wafts in. sometimes it will restrict twice a day. 7010 and 8010 are identical. Just not tuned up as much. I think it's even the same bore and everything but im not sure. But that is…"

Chad Berger replied to Kevin Arnst's discussion Problems with 8010 air filter!!! Plugs every day. Help.
"Does the crop matter to (corn/beans) to plugging. Reason I ask, is that I talked to the manager at Iour CIH dealer the other day, air filter problems on their 8120.They had this combine last year, and any 8010 a year or 2 prior to the 8120, and…"
