Shoe Overload<br />

Many axial combines due to concave design tend<br />

to overload the cleaning shoe on one side of the<br />

machine.<br />

As the rear portion of the shoe becomes over<br />

loaded with grain and MOG (material other than<br />

grain), grain can be carried out the back of the<br />

combine.<br />

With <strong>Gleaner</strong>, after grain falls from the processor, a<br />

set of distribution augers meters the crop mat into<br />

a consistent ribbon of material. The crop is then<br />

propelled by the accelerator rolls, through an air<br />

blast at four times the speed of freefall and onto<br />

the grain pan. These distribution augers insure a<br />

uniform ribbon of crop feeding into the remainder<br />

of the cleaning system—no matter where crop falls<br />

from the processor.<br />
