JD S785i Output/grain loss issues

What settings are you running in wheat? Hopefully you're not relying on automated ones. Deere rotaries don't do well with tight concave and high drum speed... in principle they are so similiar to lexion, but you can't drive them like a lexion.

Tried everything but cant get close to the Lexion in ability to thresh high yielding/damp wheat.

Been a pretty shoddy harvest just gone, not favourable for single rotor, surprised you struggled last year though. Not sure what mods can be done, might be some rotor mods and concave options. Have you got Rich Hornes number? He'd be the chap to talk to.

Yes , someone else mentioned his name, have also been looking on internet and Kondex KX7 concaves from the states look like an interesting possibility
