Both elevators were optional on the 800 series, don't know for sure if chain was available on 700 series. Best way to change over would be to swap elevators with a wrecker, as they have different drives for front beater and possibly header. One drawback I know of is that an MF 860 we used to run had no slip clutch for the chain and slat elevator. If you picked up a stone and it got into the elevator, it would beat the chain to death. Installed a soil-mate stone door in elevator to solve problem.
