Yeah this happens. You've got a big wad in there. If you have a two-speed cylinder, you can make yourself a "breaker bar". We used a piece of iron about 4 or 5 feet long, 3 inches wide and 3_8 inch thick. Then weld on a solid square "peg" on each end that will fit in between the spokes of the two-speed wheel. Each one about 4 inches long and an inch and a half square, I think, but measure just just to be sure. Make sure you weld one peg on square and the other rotated 45 degrees on the long bar. Also, weld them to opposite sides of the bar so when you have one end in the spokes and you lift on the bar to back out the wad, you don't hit the side of the feeder house with the other peg. Just imagine that you are making a giant swing bar, like in a socket set. If you are having trouble following my directions, post back and I will try to get a photo and email it to you. Rosco

We have used the giant breaker bar along with a tractor and chain before to back the slug out in sunflowers. You can also manually back the concave off as much as you can. If you get it loose, it should be able to back itself off with its own motor. Just remember to close it back up or you will have a huge wad in there.

I used a 36 in breakover bar 1_2. It fits right below the cylinder that moves the concaves on the right side(sitting in cab) by feederhouse chain. Have someone push button and pull down on bar. Worked both time I used it. Slug went right on through.

We ended up pulling the top pin on the jack and letting it down. I'm runnig on tracks right now so getting in there was not a problem, if I was on tires don't think that would have worked for me. Thanks for the Suggestions, could you send me a Pic that might come in handy in the future gdchaser@swbell.net
