My 81 N6 has a 24 ft wheat header, I am leaving heads on the ground. I have adjusted everything I could think of to minimise the loss. It seems the problem could be resulting from several things. The header drum not steadily flowing wheat fast enough into the feeder. I have tried lowering it a bit. I have lowered the header beaters, and reduced the clearance. I havent been able to determine a suitable gear ratios, ground speed, enginge rpms, and beater speed suitable to stop the loss. Could anyone tell me what the norm is on these things, and what works best for you. My fan is set at or above 7,

Cylinder rpms are around 800. I am having trouble loacating the settings for the concave, sieve, and chaffer, are located. Could someone draw me a picture on all the neccesary settings for wheat, I am lost. And I also cant figure out how the pacer works. I dont have a manual and I am running blind. If you could write me one in your reply I would be deeply greatful to you. Thanks
