Combines MacDon flexdraper on 9600

Our macdon reel tends to throw bean plants up over the back of the platform when going into the wind. I've adjusted the settings on it from aggresive to retarded and nothing seems to help. I'm not sure why they have the reel do that flip as it goes aroundIJ It's not a major problem, but I hate seeing it happen, any suggestions.

YOu mean you don't always have beans wrapping up on the reelIJ Its supposed to stop that... But i too haven't seen that happen for 5-6 years I bet its something to do with the beans being cleaner.. Just my guess....but thats the reason from what i heard and yeah there should be a way to turn it off

I've been thinking on this for a few days and the only thing that I can come up with is your reel is to low. I run mine so the fingers just flip the beans in the head. I don't know if that helps, but it is the only thing I could come up with.
