This issue we have been talking about has been my only frustration with my machine, I never had a problem untill I changed out my 5 bar concave and traded it in for a rebuilt 7 bar. You know everyone said more capacity with the 7 bar. The extra 2 bars and openings are at the back of the first 5. I often wonder if stray is punching thru the concave right onto the lower raddle. If so in hindsight I should for beans put in 2 filler bars in the back , I would still have 2 more bars to thresh on and may make the trash fly back furthur. I have even thought about building a slanted shelf above the raddle to sheild it from trash, but then your think someone would have tried it by now. but still I think you should run your engine speed at full for air reasons only, you can dial down your cylinder speed for the conditions. Good Luck
